Wide as hell... very distinctive look. I've never seen anyone that looks quite like that.

I'm getting seasick.

His lower lats are poor.
You could make a case for Franco:

Had a better overall look than Cutler. He is thicker especially in the back (rhomboid), and trained more like a powerlifer IIRC. And had Francois not gotten sick, he would have given Flex (he beat Flex at the 95 Arnold) and Ronnie a run for their money, and Cutler would not been a top contender.

Unlike Dorian , he wasn't blocky, didn't have a gut , and had good arms.
WoooSHHHHHHHH AROLDIS

sick back for sure.
-
Francois is great same with Columbu. But Samir has the best most detailed back next to Dorian.
-
Didn't the OP say best back on a white guy after Dorian? and people are posting pics of Samir...............
Jean Pierre Fux had a great back.
-
greatest back double bi of all time.
-
Samir vs. Savolainen
-
Marko was amazing for a short time, but nobody really mentions him much nowadays. His bis were so big it made his triceps seem lackluster.

Samir vs. Savolainen
Jesus Marko's back is ridiculous. Oil in bi's though?
-
Arnold's twisted rear double is still one of the best ever.
-
Samir vs. Savolainen
Yup, Marko had a great back and an amazing physique. I went to the 98 NOC expecting him to look amazing. But he never came close to nailing that condition again. Then he had all of those injuries.
-
Marko Savolainen had some of the most remarkable biceps I have ever seen. I never realised his back was that good though. Luimarco shine the spotlight on this guy!
-
And his bdb, maybe he didn't have the ham detail but his back to me was one of the sharpest, most detailed and dense ever, his Christmas tree was way ahead of his time. Dorians bdb to me though conditioned looked lopsided and lost impact with the inferior arms.

It's up there, but not the greatest.

Fux is up there too, for sure. In many ways, his back is closest to Dorian's in overall shape, etc.
-
Samir vs. Savolainen
Their backs look very similar. Marko's had more thickness though without compromising detail, cuts and striations.

Agreed. Dorian had the uncanny ability to be amazing yet unaesthetic at the same time.

I'm still on a bit of a Sonny Schmidt thing... not the widest, and not even white LOL, but still... 8)

Samir vs. Savolainen
Great back on marko - Didn't realize it was that good.!!
Samir wins - only just - over all detail top to toe.

Samir vs. Savolainen
This Marko, annihilates Phil.

If we're talking condition, detail and Xmas trees and not just mass, then one of the first guys I tried to emulate (oh brother) was Mr Winstrol himself...

Jean-Pierre Fux is up there for sure.
-
Jay Cutler was a poor man's Michael Francois
-
I kept telling you all years ago that Francois could have won an O.

Francois was a legitimate threat. Far more complete than Cutler ever was.

Mike had a great physique
Had he not become so seriously ill he likely
Could of been a MR O Winner.

The best version of Cutler couldn't shine Mike Francois's shoes.
-
Did Francois even lift?
-
Andreas died a year later. Francois nearly died 3 years later.

Proof that the level on conditioning displayed in that era was too much for the human body to handle.

Last I checked he was a personal trainer in Westerville, Ohio. ::)

It is well known that Francois nearly died just prior to the 1998 Arnold Classic.
-
Not sure if Samir is classified as "white" ..but some crazy backs here..
-
Gotta mention Mike Quinn.
-
Francois could've used better posing. had he posed better, his placing would've improved much more.
-
Arnold won 7 sandows. Years later Haney nearly won 9 sandows.
-
I've long judged a good back in a back double bi as largely, if not equally, based on good thick lats.
Dorian's lats were largely overpowered by his immense traps. In my opinion, someone like Phil Heath, for as much hate as he gets by most people here, has one of the all-time best backs. Not a white man, of course... so a bit off topic.
As far as this thread goes... hmm, Jay did bring his back up alot over the years to rival Ronnie. I'd probably go with Jean-Pierre Fux as well.

Most bodybuilders have weak backs, if you cover the delts and arms most have mediocre backs

The poor man's Dorian. Just as Jason Biggs is the poor man's Matt C. ;D

Fux
Savolainen
Francois
Samir is not white.
Damn, if Joel Stubbs had wheels to match his upper body, he would have been scary.

Andreas Munzer needs to be on that list.
-
Munzer had no clear lower back delineation. His BDB is fairly thick but that hurts him.

Dude how the fuck do you reply so quickly? You literally must update the getbig forum page every few seconds? I literally JUST posted and you replied within seconds. Serious question, do you leave your house/apartment ever?
