Oliva, Sipes and Zane win IFBB titles

Flash report on 1968 Mr Olympia (Sergio Oliva), Mr Universe (Frank Zane) and Mr World (Chuck Sipes).

Arnold Schwarzenegger would taste defeat for the first time at the hands of Frank Zane.  Sergio would win the Mr Olympia unopposed!  Harold Poole was consumed with business opportunities, Dave Draper had a heavy movie making schedule in Hollywood, Chuck Sipes had just won the Mr World and preformed strongman stunts earlier in the evening.  After a grueling evening he decided not to chance defeat under advice of Joe Weider.
