Description
1980 IFBB Amateur Mr. Universe
Held in Manila, Philippines. This version was shot on video and is much longer – and hence more fun with full live soundtrack. The footage was shot entirely at the evening FINALS.
Some of the star bodybuilders you will see are: Hubert Metz, Gary Leonard, Johnny Fuller, Richard Baldwin, Ulf Bengtsson, Jorma Raty and many more. In the middleweight class, many good judges of bodybuilding say that Richard Baldwin should have won. You be the judge!
In this class Richard Jonker of Australia finished 3rd and this was the highest ever placing of an Aussie in an International IFBB event, as far as we know.
Also includes posedowns and awards. This is an historic presentation of a classic IFBB contest.
