Re: Karelin would give Schwarzenegger a run for his money
Karelin would have been better in body building, wrestling, chess, swimming, somersaults, flying kites, and anything else he wanted.
BTW-Karelin is a better politician than Schwarzenegger too!!! And I am a republican in California.
Re: Karelin would give Schwarzenegger a run for his money
Who says Karelin didn't juice -most russians athletes didn't know they were being juiced but they were -Arnold came to America with $20 in his pocket and couldn't speak English-5 years later HE was bodybuilding and had a college degree-5 years later he was an actor and millionaire -now he is a billionaire and Governor of the 4th ? richest country in the world -as I don't consider Ca. a state due to it's sheer mass and weirdness-not to mention he married the most beautiful of the Kennedy clan-plus Karelin is just too ugly----
Re: Karelin would give Schwarzenegger a run for his money
He has all the money needs, he does not need an ugly wife to be rich and Russia takes good care of him.
About Karelin juicing-maybe but i read an article about him once and he was asked if he was the toughest person on the plant-he responded-No, my mother is, I was 15 pounds at birth and she did not have anything for the pain.
There is also the famous wrestling poster "Train like a Madman"-The quote claims he is all natural??
Re: Karelin would give Schwarzenegger a run for his money
Whether he took anything or not might be at issue but the fact is he still looks like a monster without training whereas Arnold looks like shit without his drugs.
Karelin lives in a mansion. He is very wealthy and famous.
Re: Karelin would give Schwarzenegger a run for his money
As an aside -Lee Haney shattered all of Arnold's bodybuilding records but who cares...? Arnold made the sport -it was once considered freakish and just plain weird , then Arnold came along and voila -everyone is in the gym -sheer WILL -as your philosopher pointed out in Power of the Will .
