1993 NABBA World Championships: Show – Men & Women

AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND, JUNE 12th 1993

In 1993  the NABBA International World Championships came down to the Southern Hemisphere, and was held in New Zealand, much to the delight of the 3,000 strong crowd who turned out to see the show.  Competitors came from as far afield as Russia, England, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Samoa and of course, “locals” from Australia and New Zealand.

It was a fantastic lineup showing some of the most ripped and muscular physiques seen at the World’s for some years!  The competition developed into a tussle between the Australian and German Teams – the Germans in particular were stupendous, as is obvious by the major trophies they took home!

However, they couldn’t beat all of the Aussies. DEBORAH COMPTON who took out the Overall Women’s Physique title, and TONY BARTON, Australia’s top Junior Physique champion who won his class with a resounding World Junior title.

In this video see the complete evening Show with posing by all the top finalists in all classes, men and women, plus the 3 exciting Overall Posedowns.

The Men’s Overall Mr. World  title was brilliantly won by ANTONIO VALENTI – Italy, pictured front cover above. LUTZ WILKE is pictured rear cover.
