1993 Yates vs 1998-99 Coleman perhaps the greatest Olympia physiques of them all, who would win? We will never know IMO they set the standards for those perspective years.
Like him Or hate him Phil's the best of his time I don't think his best could ever beat a prime Coleman or Yates, he's definitely a SAFETY FIRST Olympia champion...meaning unlike Dorian Yates and Ronnie Coleman they BOTH...pushed themselves and the boundaries of there own physical development beyond there capibilitys...literally ripping themselves too bits (physically) too see just how "far" they could go
Phil Heath seems like (and appears too be) a "safety first" type of "champ" not lifting crazy poundages and pushing his tendons, ligiments, muscles too breaking point...and in doing so...IMO will give him a ligitmite shot of surpassing both Lee handy and Colemans 8 Olympia records, so too that point he couldn't give a rats ass about "respect" in his eyes being the record holder will speak for itself...the little punk ass.
