1993 Dorian destroys the following
Ronnie Coleman
Jay Cutler
Dexter Jackson
Phil Heath
Shawn Rhoden
oh and Lee Haney too.
-
Shawn Rhoden does not have an Olympian type physique.
He was just less crappy than all the other crappy bodybuilders.

Agreed.

It’s similar to choosing who you would want to hang out with:
Shizzo or Vince Basile.
Just gotta choose the least delusional and pathetic.

Rhoden still beats Franco "Gyno" Columbu though, lol

As well as 1982 winner Chris Dickerson.

This can easily turn in to another Coleman vs Yates thread.
Is about time btw.

Spot on!

lol funny how the fan boys always like to forget about Ronnie's gyno issues!!!!

I am glad they went with Rhoden purely because it breaks the predictable winning streak of Heath that was stale and boring as fuck. Arnold, Yates, Ronnie, Heath they all got gifts because of this bullshit dynasty winning streak crap. Best man should win no matter how lame his personality. No gifts for Arnold coming in three weeks out, Dorian no left bicep, Ronnie with bitch tits, Heath with gut, etc....
-
Dexter should have won the Olympia more than once, and as nice of a guy Shawn is, I think he's a one-hit wonder.

Dexter's an asshole. The least likable Olympia ever, and a shithead even when winning the Arnold in 2008. I posted a video of him being obnoxious when Arnold gave him his trophy. Being the winner of a show can't just be about physique. It has to be about being likable, which Arnold, Haney, Dorian, and Ronnie were. Jay wasn't. Heath wasn't (but he had the best physique and they had no choice for years).

Exactly Right

Unless they have a new personality round,
Obnoxious or boring it doesn’t matter.
It’s a physique contest and that’s what Should be Judged
And the Best all round Physique should Win.
With the emphasis on Should as it clearly doesn’t always
Go that way with the judging.

It's a hidden category that the judges certainly do consider before handing out the top 3 placings. It's why Ramy can't break into it. He's made zero effort to learn English and doesn't mingle with the crowd or the fans. Dexter's the same. Ruhl was a horrible physique but got higher placings due to his fan-favorite status, while Cormier had a better physique but was disliked everywhere due to his arrogance. It matters mate.

This is like the elephant in the room, the other things the competitors are judged on. Heath can talk very well when he wants to, his ability to connect with the audience has been a big factor in many of his Olympia wins. Shame he is so spoilt and petty in his behaviour, that has come back to bite him because he is very unpopular now, especially when compared to Jay, Kai or Ronnie.

I can’t comment for the IFBB Olympia judging.
Though I doubt it is.
It’s not a Hidden category in NABBA (U.K.) judging.
It’s never been mentioned or discussed at any of the shows I’ve judged
Or any other judges mentioned anything.
Granted I’ve seen judges favour someone they know in their marking
This is addressed by Head Judge when it becomes apparent also the
Removal of High & low scores.
I do agree there does appear to be some sort of anomaly in the Olympia
Judging at times.
That said it is Damn hard to judge at times when there are good physiques
And some have better poses than others - I can see how sometimes a
Winner isn’t the fan / audiences choice.

Never came off that way to me or anyone else while in the gym. I'm at Venice Golds about 1-2 x per week most weeks and we've spoken quite a bit, he's always been cool and accessible.

What're the odds someone comes forward in the next few days and says the bomber last week was a nice guy, too?

The best physique rarely wins, you should know this by now.

We’ll have to disagree
The Best Physique 9+ out of 10 times does win.
I’ve not encountered any deliberate organised cheating by judges in the Shows i’ve
Judged for NABBA - The Last U.K. qualifier for the Universe was last week & I judged
The winners were deserving of their placings, That’s not to say every judge placed them
In 1st place. There were 9 judges & high & low scores removed the remaining 7 judges
Scores were tallied to come up with a winner.
The Universe is in 2wks & a fair chance I could get to judge There - And so far no one’s
Mentioned anything about anyone being specifically placed.

let's forget about the UK and focus on the Olympia, since the thread was for Rhoden and Yates. That show is more political and the judging more farcical than howard's political philosophy.

I did state in my previous post I can’t speak for the judges or judging at the Olympia.
Clearly yes there have been some iffy decisions - though they may of happened
Because of the judging criteria &/ or the averaged scores from the judges.
I doubt we’ll get an IFBB Olympia Judge to comment on the judging being rigged.
