Post by: quadzilla456 on September 09, 2011, 09:45:54 PM: This video shows Dorian post bicep injuries and he is still impressive as hell. Just look at him walking around on stage. To me he looks nuts. His lat taper was amazing and he had excellent proportions - long legs and shortish torso. Most Mr. Olympias have that combination including Ronnie. Ronnie also looks great in this video and his arms are bigger than Dorian's. But remember this is after his injuries, even though Dorian obviously never had Coleman's arms. However the conditioning is what really made him stand out. Look at his lower back!

Nice clay tools there! ;)

But yes I guess when you gray scale photos it helps bodybuilders look more like stone. However Dorian is still different. Especially in the video you can see it. I've heard people say Dorian was much more impressive in person than photos.

I think that may be from 1991 here he is from 1990 where he lost to Momo and his hair looks shorter in the back , I may be wrong
