Looks pretty damn good though.

Ronnie is awesome there....but he just doesn't have the "look" that he did when he started winning the Olympias, if you know what I mean.
Also, Ronnie on BFTO 96 is one of the sickest things I have ever seen in my life.
-
I don't know man, my impression is that not a lot saw him coming. People seemed to be more focused on who had been 2nd, 3rd etc.

That is my vague recollection as well. I do remember one article in a Flex around the time by a mysterious IFBB Pro and his comments about Ronnie were not too flattering. Basically his chest is too long for his torso and that he wouldn't win the Mr O...it is times like this I wish I still had those mags...

here's a video of king ronnie dancing back in the day.

Those are from the 1996 Mr Olympia he looked great , placed sixth . he's 250 pounds at that contest.
-
when I first noticed Ronnie he was an also ran at pro shows back in 92ish. I remember thinking if he ever did "roids" he'd bury everyone...he used to say he was natural and I was niave enough to believe him. He improved alot over the next few years and when he finally won a pro show-beating Flex wheeler there wasn't a person happier for him than me. I was happy as hell when he won his first olympia...but, I was pulling for Kevin or Shawn.
-
one of his problems is the fact that his abs look weird in the front double biceps...other than that he looked amazing 96/97-99
-
yup mr o material back then for sure. look at his waist incredibly small.

There's no way Ronnie was natural when he got his pro-card, not a chance in hell....I highly believe he was using back in his college football days...

In that front lat spread pic all u can see is his arms....weird
Woooooooosssshhhhhhhh

Even though he gained almost 100lbs after he got his pro card?

Yes.

Yes.
And he started to develop some nice gyno around 1997....

He turned pro in 92, right?

Ronnie developed gyno right about the time he started working with chad nicholls.

I was young and niave...I didn't know any better, it was along time ago.

Whoever it was did have a point , Ronnie has a short torso and long legs it some shots it more noticebale than others.
-
the potential is fulfilled 8)
Ronnie looked good at that show, but he lacked the refinement that would later bring him 8 Mr. Olympia titles (and an Arnold Classic win too 8))
-
what a difference a few years can make..
-
Roy Callendar told me that the best natural he has ever seen was Darrem Charles when he won his pro card.
he told me he was training him at the time and he really was natural :o
-
I always thought ronnys arms were too damn long and that he looked awkward... He just packed on so much damn muscle that it made him look all the better.
I was shocked as hell when he first won the O... Untill I saw the pics.

He hasn't really hit the pose. Plus the background color around his lats are the same, causing it hard for you to see.

Yes
You liar! He turned pro in 1991. ;)

He started to compete as a Pro in 1992 he even entered the Olympia that year.

Abs looked shitty since day one
-
i have never seen him with gyno. can someone post the ronnie gyno pics? his genetics are unreal
-
Definately lacked refinement, size and width in those pics compared to his later years. His quads were rarely that seperated, though. Only in '99 and these pics have I ever seen all heads of the quads.
-
I never thought much of ronnie pre 98 and it really shocked me when the next morning i logged on get big to find out that the new mr o is coleman. His body was completely changed in one or two years , it baffled me.
