The golden era of bodybuilding is alluded to when legendary bodybuilders like Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler, and Günter Schlierkamp competed against each other. The confidence of such mass monsters was such that they were up for taking challenges everywhere possible. A similar iconic scene was witnessed in 2004. Ronnie Coleman was teased for getting dethroned when he was in the running for becoming Mr.Olympia for the 7th time. 

In that press conference, contemporary bodybuilders, Jay Culter, and Günter Schlierkamp joined Coleman, in flexing their pumped muscles. The three hijacked Mr. Olympia’s press conference and it was the best thing that could have happened.

During 2004 Mr. Olympia’s press conference, Ronnie Coleman was told that his opponent bodybuilder has claimed to dethrone him. Moreover, the opponent had also created the hype that he was 300 pounds and could beat Coleman easily.

To this statement, the then-six-time Mr.Olympia gave a befitting reply saying, “I didn’t win Miss Olympia six times by just sitting around on my bu** you know this is what people say. I won six times because I worked my bu** off in the gym and did what I had to do and you know I come to this show every year doing what I have to do and I’m here you know this year just like I was here the last six year doing what I had to do.”
