He looks great but more importantly doesn't look anywhere near his 98 and 99 renditions so for anyone to sit there and proclaim theres hardly a difference between the periods other than conditioning is kidding themselves. ;)

No lol refers to the absurdity of even comparing Paris to Ronnie , Ronnie even at his best was will never be known for having a beautiful physique . Paris is among the most aesthetic of all aesthetic bodybuilders . Bob Paris is a masterpiece and Ronnie Coleman is a finger painting .

at his peak (not lately) there are many who feel that ronnie was quite aesthetic as well as being big.

the two are NOT mutually exclusive, despite popular, incorrect belief.

true, but once you go over a certian size/weight, some of the aesethetics go away. 

if bob was bigger, or any of the asethetic guys, the effect would be lost a bit.

There are also many who believe in a guy who has a ghost for a father and a virgin for a mother , that only proves the majority is stupid. you find comfort in numbers like that some how validates your nonsense it doesn't.

Ronnie certainly looks better lighter than he does now , but he's simply outclassed by Paris its night-and-day . and who claimed aesthetic was the sole domain of smaller bodybuilders? not I . in fact one needs to look no further than Chris Cormier or Lee Haney both examples of size & aesthetics blended in harmony and like Paris , both simply outclass Coleman.

nice gyno ronnie is sporting in the vid.   i personally think the picture, taken right after the 98 asc was ronnies best look ever.

What's so perfect about this?

Long torso, small arms....hardly perfection.

I think people that think Reeves and Paris were perfection are actually queers. Just because someone is good looking and has good skin tone doesn't make them the best BB ever.

Interesting to see that Ronnie video. He is lacking in confidence, barely holding his poses. His arms got much bigger from 1996-1998. He's a bit soft there, but no worse than some years he's won the O since.

The most interesting thing is how little fan reaction he got. I mean, he's got the sick back there, and he gets little or no applause on the back poses. 1-2 years later, he does the same pose and everyone is screaming and the flashes don't stop.

I think you hit the nail on the head. two years later, he actually held the back poses for all to see, rather than giving a quick, blink once and you'll miss it look.

then everyone could see his back for what it was, the best in the world.
