Ok, I admit I am bias as a lifelong fan of Nasser but he had so much more mass than Kenny and he also boasted great symmetry and brilliant calves. Cannot get away from just how important and stunning giant calves are look on a stage.

For me Nasser has it all and in better measure than Kenny. He has the stunning mass with still aesthetic harmony and total development in terms of proportion and balance. No Ninja attacks too!

Nasser = the greatest Arnold winner of all time

Flex looked amazing in 93 though.

but Ronnie was the greatest AC winner ever. Hell, even ND's love interest Peter McGough feels Ronnie's AC physique was the best ever.

Yep, Flex 4x Arnold Classic winner. Beat Nasser who was 275-280 pounds, Flex was 224. Flex even won the Most Muscular Award, a award that Nasser didn't win when he won the 1999 Arnold, Kevin won that award. And guess who would have probably won the contest if he didn't decide to skip it? Flex, that's who. Better detail, shape, and conditioning than any other, and no gut.

Too bad the video for the 1993 Arnold Classic was never, and probably will never be released. I wonder why. Maybe Ron and company can persuade Jim to release the footage...on DVD/Blu-Ray, call it a special edition or something.

Nasser looks like a giant bag of shit there. for as big as he is he looks flat, not three dimensional  like the greats. crappy shoulders and arms from the front, along with short legs and hips like a donkey.

from the back he looks like a pile of  muddy shit that got trampled on by pack mules.

Flex Magazines top 5 Arnold winners...

http://www.musclesprod.com/featured/top-5-arnold-classic-physiques/ (http://www.musclesprod.com/featured/top-5-arnold-classic-physiques/)

We weigh in on our five favorite physiques ever to grace the Arnold Classic stage

February 23, 2010

Shawn Perine

This year Columbus, Ohio will play host to the 22nd edition of the Arnold Classic Bodybuilding Championships, a contest second only to the Mr. Olympia in terms of prestige, and one with a great history of its own. Starting in 1989, with Rich Gaspari edging out Robby Robinson for the win, ‘The Arnold’ has seen its share of great bodybuilding champions leave Ohio not just with a massive check in hand, but the knowledge that they were now firmly ensconced forevermore in bodybuilding’s top echelon.

Yet for as high a standard as was reached by each of the dozen men who’ve won the title (which, by the way, is one more than the number who have won the Olympia), a few physiques stand out as paragons of perfection. Below we’ve compiled a list of our five favorites, starting with number five…

5. Jay Cutler (2003)
Because he decided to skip the 2002 Mr. Olympia due to his controversial loss to Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler had a full year to revamp his physique between his first Arnold win in 2002 and what would be his second. Coming in at a hard 255 pounds, Jay won this one over Chris Cormier (whom he relegated to second in all three of his wins), unlike the following year when he slipped by Cormier by a scant point.

4. Kai Greene (2009)
When Kai Greene took the stage at last year’s Arnold Classic a collective gasp emanated from the Veterans Memorial Auditorium. His was one of the most massive, most densely-packed bodies ever to appear in any bodybuilding contest in history. His win was a no-brainer and had he brought the same exacting level of conditioning to the Olympia stage later that year he may well have pushed Jay Cutler hard for top honors.

3. Dexter Jackson (2008)
A case could be made that the best Dexter Jackson we’ve yet to see appeared not at the 2008 Mr. Olympia, which he won, but six months earlier in Columbus. With the exception of his calves there is nothing to criticize about the Jackson physique, and at the 2008 Arnold the rest of the man was so on point that talking about his lower legs would be akin to whistling in the wind. The guy was very, very close to perfect on that day.

2. Flex Wheeler (1993)
Speaking of perfect, when talk in bodybuilding circles turns to physique perfection one of the most mentioned men is Flex Wheeler, the 1993 version of Wheeler in particular. At just 27 and in his rookie year as an IFBB pro, Wheeler brought to bear a physique that was — in a word — beautiful, and that physique saw its apex at that year’s Arnold Classic. It’s worth noting that while his conditioning might not have equaled that of later champs, it was just right for the time.

(The last sentence is interesting to me. I'd like to hear other people's opinion.)

1. Ronnie Coleman (2001)
Of his eight Olympia and overall 26 IFBB professional wins, Ronnie Coleman has established himself as arguably the greatest bodybuilder of all times, and this is the version of his physique is the one most experts point to as being his best. Standing 5′11″ and weighing 247 pounds, Coleman was hyper-muscular, tight, dry and still retained the lines (wasp waist and all) of his amateur days. From head to toe, back to front, he astounded judges, audience and fellow competitors alike. The 2001 AC Coleman was a physique for the ages.

It's hard to go against Flex when you see those pics but I've heard from people that saw the show that Labrada was wider than Flex proportion wise and at 216 he would have a hard time beating a shredded Ronnie at 247.

If bodybuilding is a pure art form then flex should win.
If bodybuilding is a mixture of art, sport, shock and awe, freakshow; then Ronnie should win.

first off that nasser comment was just laughable....


what ken wheeler brought to the ASC stage in 1993 was one of the greatest single-day peaks in the history of bodybuilding

i really can't see where that comment about his conditioning is drawn from, looks at the veins in his back, and how detailed his Xmas tree is.....yesterday, today, anyday....any ifbb pro would be happy bringing that level of conditioning to the stage

once again sharmin......the nasser comment was just laughable , he sucks

Flex was probably the best symmetrical physique of all time combined with size, he got caught in between the times never winning the Mr O because the judging changed to freaks instead of symmetry. I'm sure ND will come up with a pic
Title: Re: The Greatest Arnold Classic Winner ever
Post by: NarcissisticDeity on March 25, 2010, 01:51:42 AM
agreed.
gut or no gut, these pics are just as incredible:

Flex looked amazing in 93 though.

but Ronnie was the greatest AC winner ever. Hell, even ND's love interest Peter McGough feels Ronnie's AC physique was the best ever. Right after Dorian 1993 pre-contest



Fixed for you  ;D I agree the pics are incredible which is why most experts point to it being his best ever  ;)

I agree with the Flex top 3.
Greatest Arnold classic winner: Flex Wheeler 1993 or Ronnie Coleman 2001. I personally prefer Flex's physique.
Dexter was also pretty amazing and Shawn too, sadly he wasn't on the list.

I always wonder, what would've happened at the 1993 Olympia had Flex shown up like he did at the Arnold Classic?

Nasser's 1999 victory was the most massive at 289 lbs and by far the best Arnold winner.  Wheeler look incredibly small next to him.  Just look at this shot from this 98 Olympia for example.  some people say you couldn't see the size difference between Kenny and Nasser - that's just BS.  perhaps there wasn't much size difference in the arms alone but overall width and thickness the Zebra incredibly lacked next to the Three Times (at least) Uncrowned Mr. Olympia.  

Even Nasser's rear lat spread was wider than Wheeler's.  The only thing Wheeler had on him was detail in the rear double biceps pose.

I agree with OAK   but unlike the Oak   Flex never had the look he needed to win the O!     Well I still say he won the O in 99.   But Ronnie prevailed.

Here is a snippet of Flex from the 1993 Arnold


as far as Lebrada being wider than Flex proportion wise, there is a snippet of Flex at the Arnold standing beside Lebrada, and it wasn't close. This snippet is on Flex's Mass Construction video.
Also, at the 1993 Mr. O, Flex's waist was as small or smaller than Labrada's was.

Wheeler didnt compete against him in '99 or he would have handed him his ass like he did every year. I would hope his rls would be wider when you outweigh them by 60lbs. Look I thought Nasser was good but from seeing old pics over and over you guys post he looks worse and worse. His back sucked, like amateur bb sucked and knowing how important a back is to a pro thats his fault for hitting it like a bitch.

Due to judging biases perhaps, but not due to having a better physique.  After all, due to judging biases Yates probably would have won the 98 Olympia if he competed in it (even Ronnie said Yates would have kept winning if he didn't retire) - doesn't mean he has a better physique, just that he would have won

1998 ASC you'd never know Flex is 40+ pounds lighter than Nasser  ;)


until they hit a rear lat spread, front double bicep, ab-thigh pose, etc. - any pose that shows width...then you see the size difference.

also if you consider that calf implants weigh less than muscle it adds to the difference ;)

BTW Nasser does  look considerably bigger in that side chest shot - bad example.  He is also further from the camera.

I don't think so , Nasser disappears in some poses especially from the back and sides and Flex never had implants and it's ironic coming from someone who is clearly synthol abuser

and NO Nasser doesn't look ' considerably larger ' in that side chest in fact he looks about the same size as a much lighter guy , do yourself a favor and open the pic to get a bigger look and then come back and apologize for that dumb statement  ;D

Didnt know dorian was two inches taller than Nasser? :)  Although his caved-out waist does look bigger - you are right

Not sure what your point is about Nasser and Flex because even if you post pics of Wheeler next to Dorian doing the same poses you wouldn't guess the weight difference either. Wheeler gave the illusion of having more size except he could not hide the lack of size in certain poses which showed his lack of width

And lol that you refer to Nasser as a synthol user while making a comparison to Wheeler  ::) Clearly shows your bias

Herer are some examples where you see a more prominent weight difference.

  I am right , same weight and he's eons wider especially in the lats and his gut is bigger no doubts about it but he's making the 270 pound Nasser look smaller on the side of him in all aspects

I didn't understand your point of deflecting to Dorian when the topic was Flex , but when faced with the truth you often look for a way out , my point FYI Nasser weight advantage isn't one especially when you consider Flex destroyed him despite being lighter and he barely looks what he weighs in a lot of poses anyway so you toss out weights as if it means something

Ah someone missed the point yet again ( see a pattern here? ) the point is people who live in glass houses shouldn't be mentioning ' implants ' especially coming from a Nasser fan  ;) and I am biased towards the better physique and that's Flex , you say I'm biased like it's a bad thing

My point was the same applies to any of the bigger guys standing next to Flex (Dorian included, can also include Fux, Ruhl, etc) - because Flex was able to give the illusion of weighing more but only in some shots and in others you can tell he's smaller.  I brought up this example because you are always singling out Nasser only for not showing his size difference in some poses next to Wheeler, when the same can be said about other big pros too.  Again showing your anti-Nasser bias

Nope. He only beat Flex, Kevin and Ronnie when they weren't dialed in 100%. When they were, they beat him every time.

From the front, he was close to unbeatable in some poses, but you know how it is with the back poses :-\

No the same can't be said about other pros , you can type it now prove it. Nasser disappeared from the back not only against Flex but almost everyone

you keep spouting his weight as if it means anything and it doesn't and you're showing of your Nasser bias again , and if you consider pointing out obvious flaws with Nasser as ' anti ' then you need help the guy isn't as good as you think he is compared to the like of Flex , Levrone , Ronnie and Dorian and I have the facts to back up my claim what do you have?  ;)

Thanks forr proving my point - lots of 1st 2nds and 3rds in both lists.

Nasser beat him in some shows and Wheeler beat him in other shows, and often when Wheeler beat him he was just one place behind (ex. 96 AC, 97 AC, 98 Olympia).  So whether you like it or not it is a very fair comparison.  After all, judges obviously comparerd them in call-outs, so who are you to say they was no comparison? lol

K-Lo was in shape several times when being beaten by Nasser.  Nasser from 95 NOC to 99 Arnold Classic, and all shows in between, beat Levrone each time you can't tell me every time Levrone was not in shape during that large span - yes after 99 AC Nasser was not in top shape and lost to Levrone.  He also beat Shawn in each of those shows with the exception of one - the 96 Olympia.  Wheeler he beat a few times (and I'm not going to get into a 96 debate, he was many spots ahead of Wheeler and no way did look wheeler look better in 96).  The argument can be made that Wheeler was not in top shape in 95-96.  I agree the judges had a preference for Wheeler overe Nasser in most years.

Again, showing Flex's strongest pose vs. Nasser's weakest - seems like you're taking notes from Hulkster.  That show was 1st Wheeler and 2nd Nasser - regardless of what you say that's a close show.  Doesn't get any closer than one spot apart.

Wrong. Kevin beat Nasser in all the 97 Grand Prix shows and was in turn beaten by Ronnie in the Russian GP (Kevin was 2nd and Nasser was 3rd or 4th). Nasser was in his 97 Mr Olympia shape in all those contests, which was better than his 96 Olympia shape, where he was 10 lb heavier and blockier. But Kevin, Flex and even Ronnie never always came in at 100% for a lot of contests unlike Nasser or Dorian, which is why they lost so many.

Again, when everyone is 100%, Nasser can't / couldn't beat Flex or Kevin or Ronnie or Dorian. That's the cream of the crop.

You're right I forgot about 97 GP.  All other shows in that four year span of Nasser's best, Kevin lost, AND Nasser was not at his best at the 97 GP obviously.  When Nasser was at his best Levrone could never beat him.

Oh so what you're saying is it's not very close just in some poses , gotcha  ;D

just because Nasser was second doesn't mean he was close and looking at that pic HOLY COW he wasn't and allow me to teach you the difference between a close contest like 1998 Olympia where the final score was just 3 points which is a real close contest and a contest where it was night and day like 1993 where Samir said Dorian was first second and third

just because Nasser finished second doesn't mean he was breathing all over Flex , I'm not sure of the final score if this contest but I'm confident it wasn't close on paper or reality

just because Nasser was second doesn't mean he was close and looking at that pic HOLY COW he wasn't and allow me to teach you the difference between a close contest like 1998 Olympia where the final score was just 3 points which is a real close contest and a contest where it was night and day like 1993 where Samir said Dorian was first second and third

just because Nasser finished second doesn't mean he was breathing all over Flex , I'm not sure of the final score if this contest but I'm confident it wasn't close on paper or reality


Close in some poses, Nasser beats Wheeler in some, and the only one Wheeler beat him in was the RDB - and "coincidentally" that is the ONLY pose you post lol just to make it seem like the difference is bigger than it was.  Groink posted as though there is no comparison, and when the difference is only one place in many shows there definitely is a comparison.  That's all I'm saying.

Actually, when they were both at their best, Nasser couldn't beat Kevin. Then again, only Dorian, Flex and Ronnie could beat Kevin at his very best.

Let me amend my statement Nasser is now a third tier bodybuilder  ;D

No comparison:

Nasser   6 victories...one Arnold, one Olympia runner up

Flex     13 victories  FIVE Arnolds, Three Olympia runner-ups

80% of Nasser's wins were grand prix shows....Flex won BIG shows

So now you're forced to amend your original statement ( a common theme with you ) I agree in some poses Nasser clearly wins , ab-thigh against a career best Flex Nasser takes it really is a show stopper , in fact Nasser beats just about everyone in this pose except Dorian Yates , but the other poses Flex clearly beats him when ALL things are considered and you have to grasp that concept ALL things , Nasser may have an advantage in parts of the criteria in a few poses but you have to factor in the whole package and that's Flex and that's why be consistently beat Nasser

At their respective best with the exception of the ab-thigh , Flex leaves Nasser for dead , Flex really is one of the most exceptional bodybuilders the world has ever seen and I'm sorry as much as you'd like Nasser to breathe that rarefied air he doesn't

When you are apart with only one placing in some shows, and win some and lose others, are frequently in call-outs together - it IS a close comparison.

Far comparison would be to compare two bb's who were never close in placings for many years.

It factors in in the grand scheme of things its part of the reason Ronnie is considered the greatest bodybuilder of all-time

even if just gauging 93 VS 99 Flex wins , Flex would win , he's in a whole other league than Nasser

NO...I don't.  No one diets and trains specifically to win a GP show....they don't even exist anymore. The GP's were Glorified guest posings that gave the O guys a chance to win some money while they were still in decent shape. I'm not saying they aren't legit wins...they are.

Shows like the Ironman and Night of champions were second tier shows....but they were shows that guys targeted on the calender to win.

No one EVER said....."I want to dial it in for the English Grand Prix"

top 6 at the GP shows > the top 6 at an Ironman, even though most are past their peak from the O.  More competitive and bigger names, that's what I meant.  Seems like a play of semantics.

Honest question ND - you've concluded in this thread that Wheeler AC 93 beats Coleman AC 01.  You also haven't given a conclusive opinion on which wins between Yates 93 (his best) and Coleman 01 (which you feel is Coleman's best).  What does that say about your opinion on Wheeler AC 93 vs. Yates O 93.

Seems pretty hard to still argue that this doesn't imply Wheeler at his best would beat Yates at his best.

Look at three are a toss up and I think any of them could beat each other but I think Dorian at his best could beat both Flex & Ronnie at their best , I think the criteria clearly favor's his physique

so Dorian 1993/1995 beats Flex 93 and Ronnie 01 in my opinion

doesn't look like a "toss up" when you first post was in favour of Flex overe Ronnie AC (which you have said many times was his best)and your words were:

By far

So Wheeler 93 is "by far" better than Coleman 01, and Coleman 01 and Yates 93 are a "tossup" and now you're saying Wheeler vs Coleman is also a tossup lol stop contradicting yourself

That was to generate interest and guess what  ;) this thread was designed for one purpose and I proved my point.

I'm telling you now if Flex , Ronnie and Dorian all entered a contest at their bests , Dorian would beat them all because the criteria favor's his physique but I'm willing to concede either Flex or Ronnie are good enough to beat Dorian either way it would be close

interesting comparison of two of the best back double bi's ever at their arguable respective bests:

I think Ronnie takes this pose....Flex has slightly better lines and a bit more detail in the mid and upper back as well as arms......but IMO  Ronnie carries a LOT more muscle and is much drier in the lower body. also Ronnie has very good shape himself......it's just that nobody is going to beat flex Wheeler on shape

Flex Magazines top 5 Arnold winners...

1. Ronnie Coleman (2001)
Of his eight Olympia and overall 26 IFBB professional wins, Ronnie Coleman has established himself as arguably the greatest bodybuilder of all times, and this is the version of his physique is the one most experts point to as being his best. Standing 5′11″ and weighing 247 pounds, Coleman was hyper-muscular, tight, dry and still retained the lines (wasp waist and all) of his amateur days. From head to toe, back to front, he astounded judges, audience and fellow competitors alike. The 2001 AC Coleman was a physique for the ages.

It's hard to go against Flex when you see those pics but I've heard from people that saw the show that Labrada was wider than Flex proportion wise and at 216 he would have a hard time beating a shredded Ronnie at 247.

If bodybuilding is a pure art form then flex should win.
If bodybuilding is a mixture of art, sport, shock and awe, freakshow; then Ronnie should win.


This dude knows how to write some compelling shit......thanks for sharing that.......

yeh, love flex, but the way this ddue puts it, Ronnie is King.....that physique was incredible

and two things Mr Moron , One I never claimed to be an ' expert ' you keep posting that in quotations as if it's my phrase and Two I never once said Nasser's structure wasn't built to be a mass monster , you keep repeating this LIE after being corrected already

I did in fact say Nasser carried his size very good I said it didn't serve him ultimately because his conditioning and back suffered for trying to be the biggest he could be trying to outmuscle Yates thinking if he could get bigger he would beat him

So do yourself a favor stop believing the lies you keep typing

they were good enough to beat a 95 or 97 Ronnie but thats as far as dorian would have got:

93 was his best. after that it was all downhill, and downhill FAST:

No, I never had the opportunity to go to an IFBB contest before, since I live outside of the US. I formed my opinion on what I have available: videos and pics. Does fact that I was never there live make my opinion worthless? I think a good quality video gives a damn close idea of what the bodybuilder looked like on a particular contest, is there a magical difference on seeing them live?
I've been to local bodybuilding shows and even have seen 200 lbs bodybuilders up close and honestly there isn't a BIG difference as to when I saw their videos or pics.

of course there isn't..you will get a better idea of the fine details of a physique with a well done video as opposed to sitting 45 rows back behind some tall guy..

but when the nuthuggers see the proof that their quotes (ie opinions from other people) are in fact incorrect, they need to come up with something to discredit the visuals..

so they claim the visuals don't matter.

its silly, really.

they wish this video didn't exist because it destroys everything they have.

it shows ronnie was at his best in 99

and it shows he was better than dorian ever was all at the same time.

It does kill you that Ronnie constantly says Dorian would beat him and Dorian never said Ronnie would beat him at his best , that's a lie in fact when posed with the question he said " I guess , I don't know it would be up to the judges ' he also said the day of the contest he would he better conditioned and better balanced what's left posing and size? Dorian may be down on size but he's a better poser to boot , hence the criteria favors his physique

LMFAO you're quoting Hulkster man you're desperate , the same guy who said Ronnie has more detailed calves than Dorian , Dorian should have lost in 1993 to Flex , Dorian's conditioning was a myth , Ronnie dominated in 01 by losing , I mean I can continue for a long , long time if you'd like?

just as I was saying, they make up bullshit to discredit the visuals because it destroys the quotes they have, which is the basis of their whole argument..

when you base your whole argument on someone elses opinion, and that opinion is shown to be incorrect based on the visuals, what do you have left?

You ran from Ronnie's words  ;) and where am I in another thread shoving facts in your face rubbing your nose in your own shit

Ronnie Coleman admitted three separate occasions he could NOT beat Dorian Yates , this my stupid little friend ends anything you can't type ever , case closed...check mate all that is left is bitter crybabies who can't move on and type about anything else

It really doesn't, I could care less. Maybe Ronnie is a bit more humble than Dorian? Still, who cares about the quotes when visuals proof the opposite.
Dorian could be better conditioned than Ronnie, but not at Ronnie's best. By balance you mean how each muscle flows in size comparable to the rest? If so, then Dorian would not be more balanced than a peak Ronnie.

they need an angle to stay in the game otherwise they are done.

its all just a put on so they can continue to debate this stuff.

they know as well as we do that the visuals show ronnie was better than dorian. and that 99 was arguably his best ever form. hell, even McGough feels 99>98 (as per his article) and thats something they insist isn't true either.

you see, they use McGough quotes to their advantage when it suits them, but when it doesn't, they ignore it. its silly.

of course there isn't..you will get a better idea of the fine details of a physique with a well done video as opposed to sitting 45 rows back behind some tall guy..

but when the nuthuggers see the proof that their quotes (ie opinions from other people) are in fact incorrect, they need to come up with something to discredit the visuals..

so they claim the visuals don't matter.

its silly, really.

 ::)

http://www.truveo.com/Ronnie-Coleman-1999-Mr-Olympia-Part-Two/id/1160132027

they wish this video didn't exist because it destroys everything they have.

it shows ronnie was at his best in 99

and it shows he was better than dorian ever was all at the same time.

so they freak out, call it faked etc etc.

 ::)

As much as ND hates it, I agree with you 100%.
A good quality video is a great visual proof of a bodybuilder's physique. I mean a case could be made against pics, but a video is the closest you can get to seeing them live up close. (not 20 rows back)

How can they claim visuals don't matter, when bodybuilding is almost all visual? ???

Maybe ND and others have their own way of evaluating physiques, but I clearly see Ronnie in 99 as his best and better than Dorian at any time.

Nonsense you couldn't careless if that were the case you wouldn't have made an attempt to speak for him which is exactly what you're trying to do now by claiming he's more humble without ever just talking what he says at face value , it bothers you he feels this way and it's exactly why you're making excuses

visual proof is the opposite to you , to me it confirms my point of view , you see what you want and hear what you want hence your interpretations of what Ronnie really meant

Dorian is better conditioned that Ronnie at his best confirmed by many first hand accounts which trumps you and Hulkster's  interpretations of the ' visual proof ' and I'm not even going to bother responding to your claims because that's all they are , claims , no explanations , no elaborations , no details , just blanket statements you can't debate with that just expose the weakness of the position

Yes and the visuals lead you to the conclusion that Dorian lost the 1993 Mr Olympia to Flex , you are the problem right along  ;D you can't form an opinion if you don't even know how contests are judged  ;D and I have proven 100X over you don't have a clue

If you honestly felt Ronnie is better the Truce thread would have been 2 pages and you would have felt confident in knowing it's true , since Ronnie admitted the obvious , he couldn't touch Yates you have this compulsion to try and prove him wrong by spewing your same shit in every thread , hi-jacking , crying , bitching and moaning

I don't see visual proof as I want to see or hear what I want do hear. I call it like I see it and I see Ronnie in 1999 as being too much for any Dorian. Almost everyone here, except the die hard Yates, see that too.
I'm not even a big Ronnie fan anyway, so I wouldn't be biased. I just think that in the 1998-2001 period and especially 1999 he was just too dominating, too good for anyone. Dorian, Nasser, Cutler, Kai, anyone.
I could explain and elaborate as why I see Ronnie better than Dorian, but I already did it in the truce thread. I don't want to write all of that again. :P

Beefcakeblake is just a Dorian die hard fan and clearly biased. He even wrote that Ronnie looked like "lumps of wet dog shit slabbed on to his body", so you can clearly see that.

Beefcakeblake is just a Dorian die hard fan and clearly biased. He even wrote that Ronnie looked like "lumps of wet dog shit slabbed on to his body", so you can clearly see that.

And yes, Ronnie destroyed everyone in 1999. I'm saying that being a huge Shawn Ray fan, so I'm not biased.

sure I might be a little biased, but I try to see it like I see it.

like my bodies more like ronnies then dorians but some thing about his muscle type and look bugs the shit out of me, like he's overall to smooth, and his muscle insertions to. He looks like a collection of parts that do not fit together.

When Flex magazine says Ronnie had the best physique, best back and was the best overall ASC winner its subjective right?
But when they say Ronnie's best was 2001, Dorian had better conditioning, or any other thing you like to quote, its suddenly not subjective? It is now "expert" unquestionable and undeniable word?

you have to keep in mind this is the same guy who has been caught contradicting himself on numerous occasions

- he claims you have to see these guys in person b/c pictures lie, yet he disagrees with all the experts who have seen both live and say Ronnie is better

- says Ronnie/Dorian at their prime could go either way. Then says 93 ASC Flex would easily beat Ronnie yet would lose to Dorian

- for yrs, he posted quotes to argue Dorian was better. Then when quotes come out saying Ronnie is better, they are merely "subjective opinion"

- he used to always post the Flex poll from 99 saying Dorian has the best back. Then when the new poll came out with Ronnie#1, he claims they're wrong

- he's been caught picking which quotes to accept or ignore from the SAME person, lol

- when a handful of quotes about Dorian agree with each other, it's "corroborating evidence" but when over 20 quotes unanimously agree Ronnie is the best, he claims it's "argument ad populum"

Shawn Ray

I also like Flex, Dexter, Lee and Arnold. Those are just personal preferences, I must admit that Ronnie in 1998-2001 period (especially 1999) was too dominating for anyone and is possibly the best bodybuilder ever. I also think Dorian was clearly dominating in 1993.

I'm imminently qualified to make a judgement on the Ronnie v Dorian debate. Because I've actually seen them compete many times. I've spent £1000's attending shows in the US and Europe.  I saw Dorian straight through the 90's and Ronnie along with him too. I saw Ronnie in '99 (his 'best' year according to some) and '04. I've stood right next to both and watched them (no homo). Dorian had something Ronnie didn't. Ronnie was a big, massively powerful bodybuilder with a physique that reminded me of a muscular elephant. When it came to Dorian, it was lights out for whoever competed against him. Sure he was big, but his muscles was welded onto his body and then grinded and molded into perfection. It was never a question in my mind, Dorian wins. Ronnie might come close, but he still don't (and didn't :D ) have what it takes (took).

When you look at Dorian's physique, do you think about things as symmetry, proportions, or shape? How about separations and detail?
After taking these things into account, do you still think it was molded into perfection?

Got NOTHING to do with it. As I said before, I could not give a hoot about Yates as I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Aaron Baker fan. He is about the only bodybuilder I ever cared about and gone out of my way to have a chat with. It did not make me blind to his faults. Anyway what do you care?

I can see where you are going. ::)

No because these things aren't subjective either a guy is in shape or he's not , either he's dry or he's not , either he's holding water or he's not

I'll post quotes from other sources saying Dorian has the best back , does that mean he doesn't? because Flex says so ? and in fact Flex stated in that article that a very strong case could be made for Dorian having the best back , and new article this time around new writer Flex a couple of years ago picked Joel Stubbs over Ronnie and Dorian for having the best back , now comes the point who is right?

Let me answer for you NO ONE is right or wrong because it's a subjective topic learn the difference

Flexonline September 15, 2009

REAR VIEW:
As great as Cutler is from behind, Yates at his best was untouchable from the rear because he had not just the thickest and widest lats but also details like a lumbar Christmas tree. Maybe only two men in history could beat Cutler at his best in both a rear lat spread and a rear double bi, but Yates was one of the two (Coleman being the other).


DESCRIBE DORIAN YATES: A close friend. Dorian is very intelligent, a great Mr. Olympia. He had the best side-chest pose and the thickest freakiest back I have ever seen.

Samir Bannout who had one of the best backs mind you on Cutler 2001

Jay Cutler blows the other bodybuilders away with the crisp detail of his muscularity from top to bottom. He has superior calves, hamstrings and glutes. His back is detailed and big, but it does not match up well against Ronnie, who has the second-best back in the history of bodybuilding behind the great Dorian Yates

Ronnie has the second best back behind the great Dorian Yates


Ellington Darden, Ph.D. " best back - Dorian Yates " http://www.baye.com/interviews/ellington_darden_interview1.html


FROM MARKUS RUHL

October 2000, FLEX page 166   (notice how it is post 1999)


"DORIAN YATES HAD THE BEST BACK IN THE HISTORY OF BODYBUILDING.  HIS LAT SPREAD WAS UNBELIEVABLE.  HIS SIZE, MASS, AND CONDITIONING WERE PERFECT,"


quotes work two ways many people feel Dorian's back is the best others feel Ronnie it's subjective , please learn the difference

exactly, none of Dorian's peers could beat him during his prime. It wasn't until nearly a decade later that Ronnie would surpass him.

I don't disagree with experts subjective opinions , I take them for what they're worth. You in fact disagree with the experts who saw them live case in point above and I can embarrass you even more with many more quotes you flat out dismissed such as Ronnie Coleman who on multiple occasions said he couldn't beat Dorian and you dismissed him as ' stupid '

Quote
- says Ronnie/Dorian at their prime could go either way. Then says 93 ASC Flex would easily beat Ronnie yet would lose to Dorian

That was to generate interest in the thread and guess what?  ;) in all reality if all three faced each other they do have the ability to beat each other but I think Dorian would beat them both because his physique favors the criteria

Quote
- for yrs, he posted quotes to argue Dorian was better. Then when quotes come out saying Ronnie is better, they are merely "subjective opinion"

for years I posted quotes stating Dorian had better conditioning & balance & proportion which I proved my points and you dismissed all the experts  ;) anyone who says Dorian would beat Ronnie is subjective but the topic of balance & proportion , density & dryness aren't ! a concept you have difficulty grasping

Quote
- he used to always post the Flex poll from 99 saying Dorian has the best back. Then when the new poll came out with Ronnie#1, he claims they're wrong

I never said they're wrong , you're flat out lying and in fact in the ' new ' poll the preface the article by stating a strong case for Dorian being number 1 can be made and in fact state that many today still feel he has the best back , it's subjective a concept you can't seem to grasp

Quote
- he's been caught picking which quotes to accept or ignore from the SAME person, lol

hahahahahaha epic hypocrisy it must suck you having to post this and they have me bash you over the head with the facts like you agree with McGough when he states Ronnie 01 is unbeatable and then turn around and state that he's flat-out wrong when he states Ronnie was never harder or drier  ;D

You're a hypocrite and not a very bright one , especially for chastising me for something you're clearly guilty of  ;)  

Quote
- when a handful of quotes about Dorian agree with each other, it's "corroborating evidence" but when over 20 quotes unanimously agree Ronnie is the best, he claims it's "argument ad populum"

still having trouble grasping the concept of things being a subjective nature huh?  :-\  you have limited comprehension abilities , popular opinion isn't proof ( everyone says Ronnie is better so there for he's better ) the only thing it's proof is it's popular and nothing else

On the subject of a non-subjective topic such as conditioning and balance & proportion , when all the experts agree Dorian stands alone it's converging evidence because either a guy is harder & drier than the next or he's not , either one guy has a short torso and long legs and high calves or he doesn't compared to another


So in the end you have ad hominem attacks , lies , hypocrisy , ignorance and popular opinion congrats you really accomplished a lot Mr ' intellectual ' lmao  ;D

Yates had great trap and lat thickness, with insane dryness, arguably the best ever (next to ronnie).

He may have had the widest back too, BUT due to his thick waist, guys like  Sergio Oliva and Lee Haney look wider due to
better structural tapering, esp. from the front.

I'm imminently qualified to make a judgement on the Ronnie v Dorian debate. Because I've actually seen them compete many times. I've spent £1000's attending shows in the US and Europe.  I saw Dorian straight through the 90's and Ronnie along with him too. I saw Ronnie in '99 (his 'best' year according to some) and '04. I've stood right next to both and watched them (no homo). Dorian had something Ronnie didn't. Ronnie was a big, massively powerful bodybuilder with a physique that reminded me of a muscular elephant. When it came to Dorian, it was lights out for whoever competed against him. Sure he was big, but his muscles was welded onto his body and then grinded and molded into perfection. It was never a question in my mind, Dorian wins. Ronnie might come close, but he still don't (and didn't :D ) have what it takes (took).

Great post ! these guys like to claim just one or two people think Dorian is better  ;D

your quotes mean shit and I'll show why

exactly, none of Dorian's peers could beat him during his prime. It wasn't until nearly a decade later that Ronnie would surpass him.

this quote is pre-03 when Ronnie's back was at it's widest, thickest, and freakiest.

this quote was made before the 01 ASC and 03 Mr. Olympia (a strong argument can be made for each contest being his prime).

Why do you think they're comparing Jay and Ronnie with Dorian? and Ronnie was Dorian's peer even entertaining your nonsense and did you see the other quotes I posted from Ronnie's reign ? of course you did and as usual when stifled you look for a way out or just ignore them , and again in the latest poll they stay specifically many feel to this day Dorian has the best back and a strong case can be made for Dorian being number one , so again they don't mean shit because they show your stupidity when it comes to a subjective topic and that regardless of who came after it doesn't mean they were better

Quote
his quote is pre-03 when Ronnie's back was at it's widest, thickest, and freakiest.

Ronnie's quote was from 2003 and I think that Samir quote is too I would have to double check and Ronnie's back may have been wide and thick but it wasn't as dense or as dry as when he was lighter , don't equate softer size with quality and Ronnie 2003 said Dorian had the thickest & freakiest back he ever seen so either way you're fucked  ;)

Quote
this quote was made before the 01 ASC and 03 Mr. Olympia (a strong argument can be made for each contest being his prime).

has nothing to do with the fact that people felt in Ronnie's reign that Dorian's back was better

and it in the end it's subjective for you to claim your quotes are right and everyone else is wrong on a subjective topic such as this is weak and stupid two things you're often guilty of

Not surprising how it shows off the discrepancy in proportion between his quads and hams with his quads dominating the two with much harmony a common theme in his physique

I proved my points after the fact mind you on a non-subjective topic , either Ronnie has high sub-par calves in relation to his quads or he doesn't when directly compared to Dorian there is no room for debate on the subject

However the subject of best back or best ever is very subjective which why there are so many varying opinions and no one is right or wrong , so until you grasp this concept continue with your delusion that I lost at my own game when in fact the guy you claim who has the best back admits in 2003 a year you claim is his best that Dorian has the thickest & freakiest back he ever seen , so in the end you ' lose '

Best Back Ever

http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0KFY/is_1_26/ai_n24356572/pg_1?tag=artBody;col1

1 Ronnie Coleman

For much of the '90s, there was little dispute that Yates had the best back ever, and there are many who contend so today. Now, there is a debate, for during the first years of his Olympia reign, Coleman also displayed low-lying, ultrawide lats, but whereas Yates had more grainy ruggedness, Coleman had more feathered refinements. The moments just before he hit his rear lat spread and rear double biceps were contest highlights, as ridges and knots roamed and stripes and crevices emerged, morphing his back into a new and spectacular landscape each time he moved his arms. At his best, his back was like a great symphony orchestra, big and booming, sometimes overwhelming, and yet each finely tuned part played its role precisely.


because you're not looking  ;) try getting your head out of Ronnie's ass

I don't care what you agree with , the facts are facts regardless of your denial and ignorance , the point wasn't about the conditioning , but you knew this which is another pathetic attempt at deflection that was merely to highlight your hypocrisy  ;D

Still don't get it huh? ironic you call someone ' dumb as fuck ' who has the best bodypart is subjective , who was the best from two different eras is subjective , hence why there are so many different opinions , you being the biased person you are are trying to pass off your subjective popular opinion as fact and it's NOT how it works

Again Neo either Ronnie has short high underdeveloped calves when directly compared to Dorian Yates or he doesn't there is no room for debate on the topic , either Ronnie's quads dominate his calves in a manor in which Dorian's didn't or they do , there is no subjective opinion on this subject

See you know what subjective is and isn't but the whole crux of your position relies on popular and subjective opinions so you have to keep on this path of stupidity out of pride of not looking like you know what you're talking about , but don't fret you've already well established you don't eons ago when you claimed balance & proportion were the same things and I was merely typing they as separate to fluff up Dorian's advantages

It's obvious you don't have a fucking clue on what you're talking about , not on the subject of balance & proportion or density & dryness or on how contests are judged , you're in way over your head and committed to some very faulty positions and have been proven wrong , but again your foolish pride prevents you from learning which is why you continue to deny and rely on such faulty logic and appeals to the masses

You're like Hulkster in that regard to proud to admit you're obviously wrong and stupid to learn but then again I would too seeing after how many times I've corrected and embarrassed you  ;)

I absolutely do NOT think Ronnie is qualified to be an IFBB judge you knew this answer already , but his opinion matters just as much as any of your ' experts ' and it means a lot more than yours for you to dismiss it so casually shows your agenda

not one fucking-single of the experts you posted are IFBB judges on the subject yet you attempted to pass them off as law instead if what it is , an opinion on a subjective topic

Now to further embarrass you and your logic , you have outright dismissed a couple of IFBB judges , Dorian Yates when he said he was better balanced and had better conditioning than Ronnie , so judges don't matter , writers do ( only when they agree with your POV , what was McGough major again? English lit ring a bell? ) and a lot of writers really matter and fans too , lots of fans lmfao more flawed logic but don't fret I never expected anymore from you

yeah Okay I provided the quotes from the experts on a NONE subjective topic conditioning , and it's you who has denied the experts the onus is on YOU dumb ass to disproved he's not and posting a pic and saying ' see ' isn't proof , proof he isn't and good luck and try and learn what great conditioning is before you commit to a reply

Same with symmetry especially under the bodybuilding context which means more than just small joints and waist & hips , it also includes muscular balance & proportion , muscle length , width , etc , stop harping on PART of the word while omitting the rest which is the problem your POV is to narrow , does Ronnie meet that part of symmetry better than Dorian better ? sure does he meet the balance & proportion part better? NO

These things are in the eyes of the beholder who knows what they're looking for and that sure as fuck isn't you , it's easy to say who has smaller joints when standing next to each other there fore NOT subjective , to say who has the best back from two photos with different lighting , quality and criteria on which constitutes a better back is very subjective , a concept you still can't grasp

so ND, given that you give ronnie credibility in his opinion, do you agree with his assessment of his 1999 physique being better than his 98 one as he stated in his victory seminar in 99?

LOL

once again, ND trapped by me  in his own words.


 ::)

I agree with Ronnie ALL three times he said he was better in 1998 in coincides with the majority of experts and reality  ;)

I also agree with Ronnie when he said on three separate occasions he wouldn't touch Dorian  ;)

once again Hulkster owned by me using his own hero

sucks to be you as usual.

they could easily get a good bit of skin with the caliper on dorian's wrinkled flab on his lower back! ;D

all they would get on Ronnie would be dry striations. 8)
Have you ever even watched a video? When Dorian hits his lat spread, after he spreads, he cocks his back backwards, loosening up the skin.,
Ronnie leans forwards when he does his spread, pulling the lower back tight.
I swear to god you never have watched a video in your life.
Your such a blind moron.

Oh, you mean like the 3 times he said 98 was better, all made AFTER he the victory cerimony, thereby AMENDING his previous statement?
Oh thats right, no one EVER says they were better last year after they just won a show.

ND I hope you do realize that your very own posts show very compelling proof of how ronnie's 99 form was even better than his AC form.

eg.

way more of a gut at the AC
10 pounds smaller..
not nearly as full as 99

yet not really any more defined either...

so, tell us why his AC form was his best ever? LOL

Sorry Neo , Flex magazine 2003 favorite Olympia and Ronnie is behind Dorian it's apparently law now  ::)

So no one noticed this poll is revealed in April of 2003. Ronnie has just come off his worst Olympia
since he won the title and also got beat by Gunther at the GNC.
The 2003 Olympia had not happened yet and my guess would be that Coleman would
be No. 2 on that poll had it been taken in April of 2004.
It seems the majority of people like his 2003 physique the best.
I am not one of them by far but I'll show more respect than to call them fanboys
because I strongly disagree with them.
There are a lot of good, serious bodybuilders over at MD who recently polled
2003 as Coleman's best Olympia appearance.

Heath , Alves and Ronnie all say his best is 1998


Joe Weider - IFBB Co-Founder

"Many experts, including reigning Mr.Olympia, Jay Cutler, believe that at his best Ronnie has the greatest physique of all-time. When looking at pictures of Ronnie from the 1998 Mr.Olympia, I find it hard to argue with that."



Raymond Cassar - Muscletime Editor and Photographer

"There is no one alive that can beat Ronnie Coleman when he is at his best - No One! (and his best for me was when he won the 2001 Arnold Classic)"


Team Flex - http://www.flexonline.com/training/49

"We've said before that the 245 pounds or so physique with which [Ronnie Coleman] won the 2001 Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic is the best ever - unbeatable."



Flex Magazine March 2009

Tales from Columbus

2001 (2): Is Chris Cormier unlucky? Are Bob Cicherillo's threads so loud that he's being sponsored by a megaphone company? At the 2001 Arnold Classic, for the only time in its history, the reigning Mr. Olympia entered the contest. Not only that, but said Mr. Olympia, Ronnie Coleman, was in the best shape of his career, before or since. Now that is bad luck.

Flex Magazine March 2008

2001 Then-reigning Mr. Olympia Ronnie Coleman, in the shape of his life at 245 pounds, took this one, with Cormier gaining the second of his six consecutive runner-up positions.


Q ] There are those who feel you were at your best when you competed lighter, which for you was in the low 270's, and those who say you were best in the 290's. Was there a particular look you presented that you preferred over the others?
dot

      Number one. That one was incredible to me. It (Ronnie's first Olympia win in 1998) always will be and nothing will ever take the place of that one. Everything was just spot on for that show. I had to overcome so much to win that one too.

      I had guys in front of me who had beaten me for the last ten years or so. Nobody picked me to go in and win that show because I had gotten ninth the year before. I had to come with an incredible package and blow all the judges away and that's what I pretty much did.



Flex Magazine August 2003


Jim Schmatltz on Ronnie chances of winning six Olympias in a row

if he repeats his 2001 Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic form, he'll experience the joy of six.


Shawn Perine Ironage Dec 11, 2004

As much as I love Haney and my IA champs, I think Ronnie circa '98 or at the 2001 Arnold is pretty much untouchable. Except by Dorian Yates 6 weeks out from the '93 O as photographed by our own KMH. Both men, on those specific occasions carried so much dry muscle mass in good proportion and with good lines that it's almost unfair to compare them to others.


While I’m on record as saying that the best physique I ever saw was Ronnie’s at the 2001 Arnold, he was never drier or harder than Dorian. In fact now that – 14 years after it happened – I recently for the first time saw the video of Dorian posing before the 1993 Olympia I have cause to rethink. I’m now not sure that Ronnie at 245 pounds would beat Dorian at 269 pounds. At a bigger bodyweight I think Ronnie would look soft next to an in-shape rock-hard Dorian.

review of mr. olympia 1999, january 2000, page  90:

257 pounds, a good seven pounds heavier than last year and the clear winner, ALTHOUGH NOT AS BONE DRY OR AS ROCK HARD IN 98.  In comparison to 98, his thighs are enourmous with a greater sweep and his front delts have improved; plus the pec anomaly (gyno) is no longer present.

Quote Peter McGough Flex Magazine Jan 2001

RONNIE COLEMAN : ( 264lbs As big as a house , but holding water. In '98 , he was shredded and bone dry at 250 pounds. Last year ( 1999 ) he was 257 pounds but NOT as sharp as '98. This year ( 2000 ) at 264 pounds , he's not as sharp as 99 , which would seem to say that Ronnie is better at a lighter weight .


Peter McGough Flex Magazine August 2005

Personally, the best physique I ever saw onstage (there was a contender for best-ever that I saw offstage: those crazy photos of sock-footed Dorian Yates taken seven weeks before the 1993 Mr. Olympia) was Ronnie's at the 2001 Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic. He was cut, full, trim in the waist and a monster (proving that when you're supersharp, you look superbig) at 244 pounds. Ronnie sporting that look would, in my opinion, be unbeatable and would make any criticisms as redundant as a chocolate squat rack.

No because these things aren't subjective either a guy is in shape or he's not , either he's dry or he's not , either he's holding water or he's not

I'll post quotes from other sources saying Dorian has the best back , does that mean he doesn't? because Flex says so ? and in fact Flex stated in that article that a very strong case could be made for Dorian having the best back , and new article this time around new writer Flex a couple of years ago picked Joel Stubbs over Ronnie and Dorian for having the best back , now comes the point who is right?

Let me answer for you NO ONE is right or wrong because it's a subjective topic learn the difference

Flexonline September 15, 2009

REAR VIEW:
As great as Cutler is from behind, Yates at his best was untouchable from the rear because he had not just the thickest and widest lats but also details like a lumbar Christmas tree. Maybe only two men in history could beat Cutler at his best in both a rear lat spread and a rear double bi, but Yates was one of the two (Coleman being the other).


DESCRIBE DORIAN YATES: A close friend. Dorian is very intelligent, a great Mr. Olympia. He had the best side-chest pose and the thickest freakiest back I have ever seen.

Samir Bannout who had one of the best backs mind you on Cutler 2001

Jay Cutler blows the other bodybuilders away with the crisp detail of his muscularity from top to bottom. He has superior calves, hamstrings and glutes. His back is detailed and big, but it does not match up well against Ronnie, who has the second-best back in the history of bodybuilding behind the great Dorian Yates

Ronnie has the second best back behind the great Dorian Yates


Ellington Darden, Ph.D. " best back - Dorian Yates " http://www.baye.com/interviews/ellington_darden_interview1.html


FROM MARKUS RUHL

October 2000, FLEX page 166   (notice how it is post 1999)


"DORIAN YATES HAD THE BEST BACK IN THE HISTORY OF BODYBUILDING.  HIS LAT SPREAD WAS UNBELIEVABLE.  HIS SIZE, MASS, AND CONDITIONING WERE PERFECT,"


quotes work two ways many people feel Dorian's back is the best others feel Ronnie it's subjective , please learn the difference

Quote
No because these things aren't subjective either a guy is in shape or he's not , either he's dry or he's not , either he's holding water or he's not

So conditioning is not a little subjective? How about people who think Dorian's dryness and density didn't mean much when he lacked detail, separations and striations compared to his competition hence affecting the overall visual impact of his conditioning?
What about balance and proportion? Or symmetry? Arent' those subjective?
I've read some people say Dorian had good proportion and symmetry while at the same time a whole bunch of other people saying the opposite. And if you think Dorian's proportions or symmetry can't be argued you're a bit biased.

Pretty much agree with you here, the case of who had the best bodypart is a subjective matter. Of course within reason, you're not going to say Dorian had better biceps than Ronnie or Ronnie had better calves.

One more thing, you can spare your quotes here, I know those are just subjective opinions of people who happen to know more about bodybuilding than the average person, but that doesn't mean they have the final word.

No matter how much you try and make your opinion fact and try and manipulate things, nothing will change the fact that Ronnie said 3 times 98 was his best, thereby nullifying his previous statement, (made after the show he won, no less, like anyone is gonna say he was better the year before, lol), not to mention you are now convientley trying to agree with someone who you constantly claim has no credibility.

Hahaha, not at all, your the one that cant stand that he never said that again, except the night of the show, directly after he won the O. Lol. Again, just accept it Hulkster, No one says "I was better last year".
He just won his Olympia, feeling great, says "Im the best I ever have been!" a couple years later, he looks back, and says, well my best showing was 98. Not once, not twice, but 3 times.
I know it sucks for you Hulkster, but youre the one Melting down because your own hero fails to confirm your argument. lol.
And you seem to be incapable of grasping that "Visual Evidence" means one thing to you and something completely different to someone else. So that fact that your trying to claim that your Opinion is more valid than Ronnies, is laughable. Not to mention all the other people that were there that said 98 was better than 99. Guess what, All you have is your opinion based on some videos and pics. News flash, Ronnie was there. The other people were there. You werent, get over it.

yeah Okay I provided the quotes from the experts on a NONE subjective topic conditioning , and it's you who has denied the experts the onus is on YOU dumb ass to disproved he's not and posting a pic and saying ' see ' isn't proof , proof he isn't and good luck and try and learn what great conditioning is before you commit to a reply

wrong, you quoted the opinions of those who saw them. Nowhere did you provide evidence that Dorian was more conditioned. I'm still waiting for you to explain the objective visual criteria you're using to determine conditioning. It's not water b/c that's hidden underneath the skin. It's not fat b/c that's also hidden underneath the skin. It's not genetics b/c you can't see it with the naked eye. So what observable cues are you using?

No according to Flex it's Joel Stubbs

subjective vs non-subjective learn the difference and you're the moron who claimed if you buy into one single quote from a guy you're now bound to every single one , this is your logic typed by YOU , which doesn't apply to you because you agree with McGough one minute and flat-out dismissed him the next

"When you're ready to admit that Peter McGough is right about Ronnie having the best back ever and his 01 ASC physique beating every version of Dorian except pre-contest 93, then I will agree with Dorian having better conditioning."

it goes both ways, dumbass. I'm not going to agree with every quote from the same person if you're going to be a fag who thinks the same rules of fairness don't apply to him.

lol @ ND getting his ass handed to him in this thread

wrong, you quoted the opinions of those who saw them. Nowhere did you provide evidence that Dorian was more conditioned. I'm still waiting for you to explain the objective visual criteria you're using to determine conditioning. It's not water b/c that's hidden underneath the skin. It's not fat b/c that's also hidden underneath the skin. It's not genetics b/c you can't see it with the naked eye. So what observable cues are you using?

prove it

I don't have to provide any ' evidence ' you my stupid little friend don't agree with the experts when the contradict your claims , the onus is on YOU to provide evidence to the contrary claiming he wasn't and as usual you have nothing a common theme with you.

No , no my stupid little friend it doesn't work both ways according to you are your stupid logic , you're the moron who claimed if you believe one quote you're now bound to believe them all , a flawed logic that doesn't apply to you because McGough is right when he claims Ronnie 01 is unbeatable but flat-out wrong when he says Ronnie was never harder or drier than Dorian

You can't keep track of your bullshit moron I can  ;) the funny part is you have the balls to claim I'm a hypocrite and all you're doing is projecting your own so you're right back to square one , getting corrected by me in another thread that you felt the compulsion to post in  ;)

and you clearly forget the many people who feel Dorian does , what makes the Flex poll right and them wrong? a question you've dodged since conception

http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/pro-bodybuilders-pictures/best-back-all-time-you-decide-39990-9.html

best back Dorian Yates 358 to 243 , oppssss so much for the Flex poll what about Ronnie himself? how about Samir and Rhul? and Ellington Darden ? this is where I point out your hypocrisy once again , you are bitching I pick and choose the quotes who agree with me and dismiss those who don't , guess who is doing that now? you're an idiot Neo and not a very bright one

First, I didn't disagree with Peter McGough's claim that Ronnie was never harder or drier than Dorian.

again your quote

I'm sorry but Peter McGough is an idiot if he thinks 01 ASC Ronnie never surpassed Dorian's conditioning.

http://www.muscletime.com/news/contest-results/2007-mr-olympia-analysis

Peter McGough - Flex, August 2005

"Personally, the best physique I ever saw onstage was Ronnie's at the 2001 Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic. He was cut, full, trim in the waist and a monster (proving that when you're supersharp, you look superbig) at 244 pounds. Ronnie sporting that look would, in my opinion, be unbeatable."

Shawn Perine Ironage Dec 11, 2004

“As much as I love Haney and my IA champs, I think Ronnie circa '98 or at the 2001 Arnold is pretty much untouchable."

Jim Stoppani - Flex, July 2005

"Has anyone ever displayed a more muscular, more shredded, higher-quality physique than a 247-pound Ronnie Coleman at the 2001 Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic?"

Oh so my opinion is wrong LMFAO and your proof is popular opinion gotcha LMFAO I can always rely on you for the weakest of logic and appeals to numbers , and you of all people shouldn't be question anyone's knowledge on bodybuilding , Mr balance & proportion are the same thing and Ronnie's best is 2003 ( thanks for providing popular opinion that it's not  ;) dumbass ) and Ronnie carries more mass than Dorian by being much lighter LMFAO

Flex magazine August 1997

Peter McGough on the famous Kevin Horton precontest black & whites of Dorian at 269lbs

I was present when those shots were taken and it was the most stunning unveiling of a physique these peepers had seen since my intial view of

SERGIO OLIVA at the 1971 NABBA Mr Universe. that day , Dorian's physique blew my - if not his own -socks off.


Peter McGough

He was 269 pounds of rock-hard shapely (yes, shapely) head-to-toe muscle. I had never seen anything like it. It was simply the best physique I had ever seen up to that point.




Peter McGough Ironage
June 06 , 2003

The later photos were taken in his gym about seven weeks before the 1993 Olympia. He'd just finished a chest workout and he weighed 269

pounds. If I had to rate my most memorable bodybuilding moment the sight of Dorian that day would be neck-and-neck with the first time I saw

Sergio. He hit the first shot, double biceps, and I walked up to him and said, "Don't worry Dorian. You have plenty of time to fix this. All is not

lost."
I told him he could walk on to the Olympia stage in that condition weighing 269 pounds, untanned, with his socks on and still win.


Neo you're desperate to prove me wrong because I constantly prove you wrong and you made the fatal mistake of not doing the research , now you just gave me another chance to show everyone how fucking stupid you are  ;D

Neo you're desperate to prove me wrong because I constantly prove you wrong and you made the fatal mistake of not doing the research , now you just gave me another chance to show everyone how fucking stupid you are  ;D

NeoSeminole how does it feel constantly being wrong dumbass ?  ;)


Flex magazine August 1997

Peter McGough on the famous Kevin Horton precontest black & whites of Dorian at 269lbs

I was present when those shots were taken and it was the most stunning unveiling of a physique these peepers had seen since my intial view of

SERGIO OLIVA at the 1971 NABBA Mr Universe. that day , Dorian's physique blew my - if not his own -socks off.


Peter McGough

He was 269 pounds of rock-hard shapely (yes, shapely) head-to-toe muscle. I had never seen anything like it. It was simply the best physique I had ever seen up to that point.




Peter McGough Ironage
June 06 , 2003

The later photos were taken in his gym about seven weeks before the 1993 Olympia. He'd just finished a chest workout and he weighed 269

pounds. If I had to rate my most memorable bodybuilding moment the sight of Dorian that day would be neck-and-neck with the first time I saw

Sergio. He hit the first shot, double biceps, and I walked up to him and said, "Don't worry Dorian. You have plenty of time to fix this. All is not

lost."
I told him he could walk on to the Olympia stage in that condition weighing 269 pounds, untanned, with his socks on and still win.

Yeah....but what makes this the definitive, unimpeachable statement that you present it as ?

It's a quote from an English writer about his acknowledged friend in a fucking BBing rag...what makes it law...seriously?

Those magazines are 100% hyperbole from cover to cover...to take it literally is ludicrous. and this goes for ALL "quotes"  ::)  pro or con.

Nah, you missed there argument Groink. Neo said that Mcgough wasnt present when those photos were taken, and was calling ND a lier, so ND is showing him the proof that Mcough was there.
So much Drama in teh GETBIG.  ;D

brah, I couldn't care less which topic you want to talk about. I come here for entertainment unlike you, who clearly comes here to satiate his inferiority complex. Just compare our number of posts on Dorian vs Ronnie ;) All I'm saying is don't be a fag who thinks it's ok to be a hypocrite but the rules of fairness apply to everyone else. Pick a subject and stick to it. However, don't cry after I deliver a verbal beat-down on your flower boy ass.

much better than missing arms, a blocky midsection, worse definition, folds of loose skin, and calves too big for thighs

ronnie also looks smooth compared to dorian in that pic

missing arms??? Dorian's arms were amazing

worse definition??? dude sounds child like maybe less defined

Folds of loose skin ???? thats dumb I've never seen emm, at least not enough to be an issue he's not jay

and no his calves are not to big for his thighs(except for 1996 o)

like I said not an issue well for me anyway, like maybe jay thats an obvious issue.

and imo Ronnie's lower back was never as good as Dorian's

ovs Ronnie's glutes are amazing they always do even when hes off.

and when somebody freshly smoldered dog shit together they forgot to take it out of the toilet to dry off a little.( something like that)lol

I thought you were talking about arms in general not just only this pose.
but that said yeah they usually do look like toothpics in this pose but it's not an arm pose so it doesn't take away to much unless it's 1996 dorian version here his arms and legs were a little small.
