Depending on who you ask, Shawn Ray is either the most hated person in bodybuilding or one of the most honest and outspoken personalities. But what no one can deny is how his polarizing character and numerous rivalries made him one of the most controversial uncrowned Olympians. From an unfortunate injury that ended his football career to coming so close to dethroning one of the most dominant giants in bodybuilding twice, this is Shawn Ray’s rise from cleaning toilets to the very top of bodybuilding. 🎙Interviews & Podcasts: Big shout out to @naturalolympia for his great Shawn Ray interviews watch them here: https://youtu.be/jvdTaj-_oWQ https://youtu.be/IUdWUPaBSM4 https://youtu.be/piYrmJSw5IU https://youtu.be/OR8IosuT84I https://youtu.be/1VYiW-yMoyI https://youtu.be/3ETGfQM6NRI https://youtu.be/7pJxl9tEW44 https://youtu.be/Fckpf6GZZP0 https://youtu.be/nSSEP_PIn_M https://youtu.be/GVHhcY3Cjng https://youtu.be/T2DYGB3GiA8 https://youtu.be/llXwcfKXPWY https://www.youtube.com/live/6NG7cwmQ9PU https://www.youtube.com/live/wkEDjVSoJtY https://youtu.be/15hVBUaUpnA https://youtu.be/EE58l2Y5WBE 📰 Other Sources: https://pastebin.com/6eme71qZ 🎬 Chapters: 00:00 - Sugar Ray 00:47 - The Giant Killer 01:45 - Humble Beginnings 02:35 - The Footballer 03:36 - Saily 05:06 - The Anomaly 08:37 - 1988 Mr. Olympia 09:41 - You're Suspended 10:52 - 1990 Ironman Pro 11:41 - What Steroids? 13:05 - 1990 Arnold Classic 14:24- 1990 Mr. Olympia 16:21 - 1991 Arnold Classic 17:35 - 1991 Mr. Olympia 18:36 - 1992 Mr. Olympia 21:23 - Fighting for 2nd 23:53 - 1993 Mr. Olympia 25:13 - The Stars Aligned 27:00 - 1994 Mr. Olympia 30:40 - 1995 Mr. Olympia 31:42 - 1996 Arnold Classic 33:09 - 1996 Mr. Olympia 35:16 - 1997 Mr. Olympia 38:31 - 1998 Mr. Olympia 39:15 - Shawn Ray vs. Chad Nicholls 40:57 - Shawn Ray vs. Dexter Jackson 41:53 - Shawn Ray vs. Lee Priest 43:08 - Shawn Ray vs. Shawn Rhoden 43:42 - Shawn Ray vs. Chris Aceto 45:28 - I Reap What I Sow Affiliate disclaimer: This description may contain affiliate links, which means if you click it, find something you like and buy it, I'll be making a teeny tiny bit of money at no extra charge to you, hell, you even get a discount by using my links! 🤭
