There's nothing wrong with his health. He has started a bbdg league of hiw own. First contest is in September. He is living here in Toronto and makes the odd appearance at Gold's gym in Mississauga. He has lost his size as he is off the gas since his attempt to come back during the Montreal show last year.

From what I remember, his physique was starting to wane long before his legal trouble. When he won the NOC, and the entire crowd booed, he wasn't near his best and didn't resemble anything like the photos we see above. A few years prior (94-95) Paul placed 4-5th, then suddenly him and Ronnie switched, with Paul not even placing in the 98 Olympia, while Ronnie won.

You have no idea; they might be about the same size or slightly smaller it's hard to say.

Since everyone's just guessing i'll say that one of Dillet's arms = both of Yates'.

A serious PRO bodybuilder that is in it for the love and long run knows how to look after their health and not relay on the drugs use to take them to the desired level at whatever cost. Take Ronnie and Jay. They are both the two best in the business, they look good, healthy, and Ronnie is still going at it at 43 years old. Paul Dillet represent the other side of the spectrum, yes it MIGHT work for a short time and always at great risks.

dillet was better than yates. his back wasnt as poor as some claim. people claim he was lazy in the gym...its true he didnt do crazy intensity and forced reps like yates..but you dont need to do that to grow...(specially not with dillets genetics +hormones). what you need is consistency...you need to be in the gym week after week.

Dillet didn't have a great back but I've seen way worse backs win shows.  I really think if Paul would have learned to pose like one of the Gironda guys did back in the day he would have won a lot more shows.

dillet is probably the most visually shocking person in the last 20 years on the scene....everyone I've talked to says he really just was not capable of busting his balls in the gym to the degree of Ronnie or Dorian.  From the front I doubt anyone could beat him when he looked like he did in that initial picture but he didn't really know how to pose, his mandatories were terrible if I remember right and his back was weak when you've got people like Yates, Coleman, Levrone, Wheeler and Shaw Ray up there to compare him to.  Seems he never really hit it as far as conditioning goes on the olympia stage but if you get a chance watch the BFTO 98 with Dillet....he looks flat out incredible, his thighs are feathered...he just looks amazing.  I heard he blew his conditioning but if he would have showed up in the shape he was capable of that year....man, he would have given ronnie a run for his money.

haha people claim dillets posing suck and he was lazy etc. it doesnt matter, dillet totally crushed yates.
some people dont have a mind of their own..most of you have probably not even seen dillet train or pose (on video or in real life). take the english grand prix back in 96 i think it was: yates won but dillet, nasser, and levrone all crushed yates in that competition.

the britney spears syndrom exists in bodybuilding: if someting is said enough times people start to believe it( her music is played all the time on radio so people start think that its good music) or in this case that yates was better than dillet and that dillets posing and back was so bad.  just take a look at the english grand prix pics from 96: yates wasnt even in the top three. the competition was between levrone and dillet if i remember correctly.

dillets width is better than yates, dillets shoulders are bigger and better than yates
dillets arms are way better
dillet symmetry was better, and proportions better than yates
legs are better than yates
yates calves are gigantic but dillet had amazing calves too
yates back was thicker but dillets back was just as a wide
dillets total structure is better than yates

dillet shouldnt even had to pose in comparison to yates. he totally owned him.

well i think its expected....dorian yates always had a supreme confidence (supposedly) when he entered the mr o back in the 90s. one problem is that flex, dillet etc..had too big respect for yates. for example dillet was blown away by the yates pic from back in 93 of yates weighing 269lbs in good conditition. dillet totally later surpassed anything yates could present.

also: yates horrible arms (specially after tearing his bi in 1994)+ gut should have disqualified him from winning any mr o from 1994-1997. and im not even sure he was the best in 93.

levrone, dillet, flex, shawn, nasser, vince taylor (at his biggest in 96/97) where all better than yates.

yeah i have seen it  :)  (have the video)

he was the best bodybuilder of the 90s.

despite having one of the worst backs of the 90's.

he won 2 shows. 

that has nothing do with yates.

In fair contests he deserved wins over Yates just as he was, for being clearly superior from the front and at least as good from the side. IMO he would beat Coleman but it would be much closer and more interesting more up to personal preference who was better.

Dillet would be my choice also, he had the King Kong calves and huge ass arms He had it all except a huge back, if his backed matched the rest of him he would have been unstoppable even if his conditioning was off.

if you ever read a contest report, most writers said he looked wider standing there, than in the lat spreads.

no doubt due to his inability to pose, but also, his back was never good.

his shoulders are 3 times the size of his lats.

because his arms were bigger?

yates was ALWAYS in better condition that dillet.

You're a walking train wreck. I mentioned flaws/balance and you brought up conditioning instead, in trying to deflect.

In terms of balance Yates was more flawed, period.

As far as size being the #1 factor, Dillet blew Yates out of the park; you're a dufus.

dillet is clearly better than yates. i just checked the fibo footage from 94 where yates, vic richards, nasser, dillet etc posed. all the talk was about richards dominating yates...which he did from all angles except back. but, dillet owned them all..including richards.

If you read Dillett's column in MUSCULAR DEVELOPMENT, he gives a month-by-month account of how his personal life fell completely apart over several years.  It's no surprise his career fell apart along with his personal life.  Very sad.

like ususual, you are delusional about the facts.

paul may have had less flaws and better balance that yates, but dorian was always in better condition.

considering paul never the olympia, or any # of significant shows, you are proven wrong once again.

I think this is another stock theory perpetrated in lieu of the reality of politics. "He flexed and not enough happened" really is speculation, since what matters is the appearance when posing. It's there along with "weak back" & "posing" as partial but insufficient explanations as to why a physique that was ridiculous & superior to others on stage wasn't at the top in most shows.

Yeah that is a fair comment. What i should have said was, that no matter what happened when he flexed, short of him exploding everywhere, people where going to be disappointed. It seemed to me that he just never had that pop to his muscles that a lot of the top guys did......but is that still being a little picky....yes it probably is because the guy was a true freak, mass, shape and symmetry. And yes he should of been placed higher in a hell of a lot of shows  :).

dillet had waaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy too much synthol in the delts, especially the posterior delts.

it's like he just figured he'd chuck most of it in there because so many bbers have weak rear delts. imo, it was a huge mistake. it made his rear double bi look like shit.

to have a weak back, entire back btw, is a cardinal sin in bbing. there are just too many major muscle groups there that also affect the rest of the physique.

he was nowhere near yates' condition or hardness, seperation, detail, density, not in the same ball park.

but yes, in a relaxed pose front on, dillet kicks ass.

The same list of stock excuses, lacking in balance or any comprehension that Yates and others had more flaws, less balance and less muscle. Conditioning's also another excuse-Dillet looks pretty conditioned here in relation to the "keg" it's clear; there goes some more BS. ;D

he was never in good enough shape.

simple as that.

you keep talking about flaws and balance, meaning, his arms were bigger than dorian's.

all of that worthless shit you spouted, doesnt mean anything if you're not in top shape to be a contender.

paul never was.

I'm not convinced Dillet used synthol in his delts.  Dillet has naturally large delts.  I think his rear delts took a tremendous pounding over the years as Dillet attempted to bring up his weak back.  Instead of getting growth in the lats, his delts grew larger and larger.  Some people grow like that.  i.e. their stronger bodyparts take over.   I'm like that in a way as when I bench press I get large triceps but not a lot of chest development, thus I have to focus on chest flys so my triceps don't take over.

exactly, his delts are pure texas t.

his back is absolute garbage. i'm sorry but it is.

i don't believe yates should have won an o with a torn bi, but in every other olympia he was clearly more balanced than dillet, not to mention condition and density.

notice how whenever pumpster displays pics of (enter any afro american bber here) on stage with yates, dorian is always between poses. ;D

you can't blame pumpster for this though. unfortunately his eye sight is badly affected by all the jism he gets nutted in his face from all those afro american bbers. :-*

here's the amazing thing about that picture, his head is closer to the camera than his delts yet his delts STILL are bigger! Ronnie was huge, but his delts were never that big relative to his head.
