If Ronnie had Chad in 96 to dry him out, he should have beaten Dorian then. Even with Ronnie being in the 240s.  He's more complete.

He should have stayed at the weight and improved his conditioning.  He would have been almost unbeatable if judged fairly.

But I think that the 1998 Ronnie (Olympia) would've easily beaten a more shredded version of the 1996 Ronnie

His best weight was around 255. He kept coming in heavier from 2000-2005 (excluding the Arnold where he was 252) but he wasn't really gaining more muscle or much at all at that stage he should have kept going down to 255-260 for the shows.

2002 doesn't count Chad is a fucking moron who put him on a liquid only diet to get him down to 245 so he lost muscle to do that.

Ronnie was 250 pounds as of 1996, up from 230-235 from the previous year.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Ronnie looked better in 1996 than he did in 1997 (where he was carrying far too much water). He made vast improvements from 1995 to 1996. He gained 15-20 pounds of contest bodyweight, with larger muscles, yet had a dry and vascular look to him. He weighed the same in 1997, but was off.

I called Lui out many times. He uses my scans and videos from my social media accounts, but never mentions he got them from me or at least link them to the source. Some times he makes videos and doesn't really know what he's talking about. His popular videos are mostly about synthol users and dumb videos making fun of people. You can tell by his "followers" comments that they are a bunch of kids especially from Asia and Europe. Lui is more like a TMZ bodybuilding news reporter. He makes videos about irrelevant topics. That's Youtube for ya lol.

LUI, I KNOW YOU'RE READING THIS. LINK MY SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT TO YOUR POSTS WHENEVER YOU USE IT.

Look up Dorian from this particular show....game over for the rest.
Dorian Yates best ever that one. Maybe best BB body ever..

Are you referring to his calves or short torso and four pack abs?

98 Ronnie which apparently weighed the same as 96 Ronnie just better conditioning would always beat Gunther.  If Ronnie came in 98 condition with 98 size he'd win every year if judged fairly.

We know, his back was insane, his calves were great calves and he had pretty good forearms. Besides that, he was subpar imo (worst biceps, horrible thighs, and a mediocre chest at best).

LMAO When will you people get it? It's poses NOT parts that win contests. Despite his flaws he destroys everyone in most of the mandatory poses. Most dominant bodybuilder in the history of the sport.

no way it was post tear and his arms were dwarfed by his upper body/torso by that point in his career..

the infamous 'twigs on a barrel' look. he was dry though.

still, his 1993 look was his best over all. two good arms to boot.
