Title: Ronnie 2000
Post by: Immortal_Technique on February 12, 2010, 04:02:09 PM
Shape and size-wise this is some pretty cool shiz. Holding some water yeah but has striagtionated assholes, and if this is bad balance and proportion Id love to look that bad!

Looks great. That's Mike Matarazzo who is commenting, along with Joe Amato.

I always thought he looked incredible that year (well i only got to see the pics until about 5-6 yrs later but still), definitely a highly underrated Oly. performance from Ronnie. The combination of size, conditioning, and fullness is  something I have never seen in any other Ronnie appearance.

No homo  :-X

Everyone makes mistakes. Dorian has a better back and even Hulkster has conceded this.

Mike Matarazzo > Peter McGough.

I don't even necessarily agree with big Mike, but the endless Peter McGough quotes coupled with the contradictory argument that single opinions don't mean anything is doing my head in.

Anyway Ronnie could obviously be dryer but his lower body from the back is still possibly the most ripped ever, discounting Rich Gaspari or some of the really small guys. And as far as balance and proportion I honestly cannot see he's missing anything. Not only that but he's twice the size of everyone else! Levrone's got delt width and arm thickness, probably traps, but that's it, and he loses out in detail on arms and delts.

Bottom line that's a thick powerful physique!

Gut + lack of razor-sharp conditioning

Looks better on pics than at the video tough.

Wiggs that must have been awesome to see.

He is like a big roided up bull. I think his lower back might actually be drier in 2003, or maybe just bigger. It's amazing he managed to get even thicker than 2000. His quads are a joke here, different league to everyone else.

best bodybuilder ever right there! Nobody has come close to that combination of size, conditioning, and symmetry.

if by "close" you mean closer to the camera, then yes. He's also flexing while Ronnie isn't.

To be honest I haven't read the coverage probably since new but I don't recall anything like that.

thats for sure:

2000 compared to the year before..ronnie added about 6-8 pounds of weight and it made him look worse.

im pretty sure i remember something like that...  I think he tried to fill up too, and then spilled over like crazy, then dried to dry out with too much lasix and god knows what else.  i can't remember the specifics.

Flex was looking heavier that year than I had ever seen him. I remember reading he went up to 277 pounds in the offseason in preparation for the 2000 Mr. Olympia.

Here's big Ron from the British GP after the 2000 O.
Better lighting than the Olympia vid but I wish I could see
his Olympia conditioning with this lighting.
