Dennis Tinerino (December 23, 1945 \u2013 May 7, 2010) was an American bodybuilder, most prominent in the late 1960s and 1970s. He won the Mr. Universe title four times in 1968, 1975, 1980 and 1981 and Mr. World in 1971 in the tall man’s category, and Mr. America in 1978. After becoming involved in a life of crime, running one of the biggest escort services in California, he became an international evangelist. The 1983 edition of The Gold’s Gym book of bodybuilding cited him as “one of the most successful bodybuilders of the past decade or two”. He is an inductee of the National Fitness Hall of Fame, IFBB Hall of Fame and National Italian American Sports Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n Championship record<\/span><\/p>\nChampionship appearances<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
Counted from the same results table below: an appearance is one contest entered (in the years the Olympia also judged weight classes, one appearance can carry two placings), an Olympia title is the overall win in that division, and Top 3 counts first, second and third together. The last row is every professional contest on record for Dennis Tinerino.<\/p>\n
