It is reported that he had earlier complained of sickness and shortness of breath, but refused several times to go to a hospital. It is believed that the cause of his death was that he took an injection provided by an unidentified man to accelerate the process of his preparation shortly before the competition. His death led to the end of the career of his personal friend Steve Brisbois. Benaziza was 33 years old and was the star-spin of the new generation of BodyBuilders.

He always filled insanely at Gold's Venice in the 10-14 days post-Olympia while doing photo shoots. It was rude how diabolicallly he filled and then spilled over.

Dorian always wins the the rear latspread, but in 1994 at prejudging in my opinion Levrone is beating him in the rear latspread quite convincingly.

Ahh, the great ilusion of Kevin's RLS was that his triceps are so crazy, along with his absurd delts- it actually appears that he has a good RLS. Dorian takes this shot.  

At first glance Kevin does, but a closer look makes you lean towards Dorian.

Come on Ice, Kevins closer to the Camera and unless his Calves had grown 4inchs since 93, its safe to say Kevin while he DID have good width isnt on Par with Yates in that Particular Pose

Momo is flaring his arms back causing the back muscles to bunch up and deepening the shadows. If Dorian did the same his detail would pop more. What contest was this? Didn't Dorian lose against Momo once?

Yip Don,t Quote me on it, from Memory 1990 NOC Yates got 2nd to Momo, then yates took the 91 NOC

Not to take anything away from Yates, but Benazziza was one of the best short men of all-time.

Agreed when in top shape he was very Balanced and Conditioned. Yates, Padilla and Momo 90 NOC

Levrone does seem closer, but Dorian is sure not winning this shot in my opinion (at prejudging only). Levrone's lats are flaring out better than Yates.

Same shot different angle.

Nice shot. Dorian wins. Kevin is a very close 2nd.  The other guy should step off stage so he doesn't get hurt.

Dorian takes it. Also notice how Kevin is positioning his toes similar to Ronnie thereby creating the illusion of bigger legs from the rear. They must be slightly pointing their toes outward.

Dorian never posed like that making his legs seem more narrow. He would have looked bigger in the legs if the posed like Kevin and Ronnie.

Dorian said it himself after competing at the NOC against momo, he needed to bring up his back, history tells us he did.

Momo was one of the freakiest mass monsters. He had far better shape than Dorian. Crazy abs,arms, legs, back.

Lats look a little small compared to his traps. I think Momo would take it against that shot too.

Wow I used to think that Ronnie took the Back Double Bi and Lat Spread but those show it to be much closer with Dorian taking both!

This is exactly why pictures alone don't always tell the whole story about who should win.

Momo took to the max the amount of lean tissue a human could pack on a frame, and still appear human

The guy was a square 5'2"

WFT Dorian has no bicep compared to Ronnie.
Title: Re: Prime Dorian losing a back comparison
Post by: NarcissisticDeity on September 02, 2012, 05:43:39 PM
WFT Dorian has no bicep compared to Ronnie.

And Ronnie has no calves compared you think the only part that is judged is biceps?

IFBB criteria

Back Double Biceps (see Figure 4)
Standing with his back to the judges, the competitor will
bend the arms and wrists as in the Front Double Biceps
pose, and will place one foot back, resting on the toes.
He will then contract the arm muscles as well as the
muscles of the shoulders, upper and lower back, thigh
and calf muscles.

The judge will first survey the arm muscles and then do
the head-to-foot survey, during which there are more
muscle groups to look at than in all of the other poses.
This includes the neck, deltoids, biceps, triceps, forearm,
trapezius, teres, infraspinatus, erector spinae, external
obliques, latissimus dorsi, gluteus, thigh biceps, and
calves. This pose, probably more than the others, will
help the judge to determine the quality of the
competitor’s muscle density, definition, and overall
balance.



read the quote from Arnold about nothing happening when the calf is flexed , he's talking about the rear latspread but needless to say it's applicable to any back pose.

' the entire effect would be ruined '
