I think you forgot Haney!  He dominated an era largely based on his back development and certainly deserves mention.

That picture of Ronnie sucks ass.
Hulkster's comparison shot is 100% better than that garbage IronAge conjured up.

Ronnie yes, dorian yes.

Arnold? Hell no!!

Piss off to ironage if you honestly feel that way. There are far superior backs out there.

3rd pick could be anyone between haney, bannout, robby robinson.

I'd probably go with bannout for third.

Then again for all his faults (and trust me he had many) franco columbo had a unique back, lowest lat insertions ever!!

HUGEPECS doesn't really think Arnold has one of the greatest backs.

He just found a convenient pic, and thought he would be clever by posting it.

Little did he contemplate the fact that the pic has been posted eleventy billion times before.

Yeah. You gotta sneak Lee in there. Those would be the top 4, but if you can only pick 3, then I'd get rid of Dorian - as good as his back was.

Arnold > dorian?

The fuckin audacity.

Dorian wrote the book on back muscularity and thickness.

Arnold's picture doesn't belong with the other two. He had a great back, Ronnie and Dorian had insane backs.

Yup - Arnold > Dorian. Why? I'm being biased 'cause I love Arnold - sorry.  :-*

As for me belonging to Ironage? Nope.  :)

I would always include Arnold no matter what. After all, he was the Original, and I dont give a Shiiiite who thinks Arnold dont deserve to be one of the top backs. The comparison is fair, giving the fact that each one is from different period. Regardless, Arnold would still be the" ALFA AND OMEGA"

Actually it wasnt. I believe it was taken 2001 or 2002. Its just a bad shot thats all.

Fantastic reasoning there.

Why don't explain why arnolds back deserved to be on the list based on its merits not whether "you give a shit or not"

We're talking about time and period. If Arnold were to compete these days against those guys, he wouldn't stand a Godamn chance, Just like haney said a couple years ago, if he had to compete against coleman, he would lose, everytime.

back in Arnold's days, having a huge back was not what the focus was all about; but at the same time, no other guys whom he competed with had a better lat spread. it's the period and time that he dominated

No way he actually meant that. It's probably like his Tiger Woods quip, he only said it to piss people off.

Of course not; it's another lame stock Iron Age pic, what do you expect?
