Yates vs Nasser at the 1995 olympia offered them at their best. Yates won.

Well the question is who was the best, not who won. Two different things...
Team Nasser!

Great point!

And "Royalty" 95 was not Nasser's best, he gained about 20 lbs of muscle after that year.

i had the vhs from that show. yates was better.


Yates won the rear lat spread, front lat spread, rear double bicep, side Tricep


Nasser won the ab/thigh, front double bicep pose


Yates had great routine. Nasser just kept hitting most muscular poses in his routine.

Why not just post back double bis form when they competed together, like here

nasser looked great in 1996. could have won....but did fail the diuretic test.

But Shawn Ray beat Nasser to that year too.

Shawn Ray did not deserve to beat Nasser that year.

He was soft in 1996 even with the diuretics

On any stage comparison with Yates and Nasser from 95 and onwards Yates only beats him in back, calves and forearms, and of course Yates also beats Nasser in waist size and bloat ;)

Bob you're missing another key factor conditioning

this is 1996 and there is a vast discrepancy in density & hardness as well as the backs

What would you consider Nasser's best contest showing?

Not in 1995. on the ESPN coverage Frank Zane kept pointing out how big Nasser's waist was

Please explain how you gather than Dorian looks more "dense and hard" in the 96 comparisons posted.

I think 96 Olympia and the 98 and 99 Arnold Classic.
