Mohammed Benaziza (Arabic: محمد بن عزيزة; 1959 – 4 October 1992) was a professional bodybuilder.

It was reported that he had earlier complained of sickness and shortness of breath, but refused repeatedly to go to a hospital.

It is believed that the cause of his death was that he took an injection provided by an unidentified man to accelerate the process of his preparation shortly before the competition.

His death led to the end of the career of his personal friend Steve Brisbois.

Dorian Yates, 6 times winner of the Mr. Olympia contest, and remembered in part for the exceptional development and thickness of his back muscles, cited Mohammed Benaziza as his main inspiration to work on that area:[2] It might sound strange now, but when I first competed, my first [international] contest [the Night of Champions 1990], I lost to a guy called Mohammed Benaziza, and his back was just freaky thick, it was like 3D coming out, that just stuck in my mind.
