However, we couldn't say the same for Haney who was in full motion and more ready to win than ever before. After his success and wins at prestigious events and his two Mr. Olympia titles in a row and was ready for the third one.
Competing against 14 bodybuilders, Lee Haney took the title once again, showing amazing form, great muscle development and exceptional posing. It was evident that Haney has mastered everything and was in his lifetime form, winning against Rich Gaspari (2nd), Mike Christian (3rd), Albert Beckles (4th), Berry de Mey (5th), Peter Hensel (6th) and other bodybuilders including the experienced Tom Platz who finished on the eleventh place.
Besides his mass, Haney possessed some flowing lines and an amazing onstage presence that overwhelmed everyone from the first up to the last pose. "It was impossible to beat him" as many bodybuilders said. That is how Haney took the 1986 Mr. Olympia title in his hands once again and how he approached the next edition of the contest (as a true winner).
