I agree except i would drop Cutler to the 6 spot. I think Kevin has nearly as much mass and is far superior in every other aspect. And while Shawn gives up a lot of size, he had more detail in one pec than Cutler has in his whole body.

Title: Re: If we took the top 6 from last years Mr O and sent them back in time 10 years
Post by: Hulkster on January 17, 2006, 08:39:54 PM: I think Ronnie version 2005 would do pretty well, only because he had a more streamlined midection this year. If you had picked the 2004 line up (with Rhul in the top 6, Ronnie and Jay holding tons o'water etc) they would have been crushed by the lineup in the mid 90's (except for Dorian of course, after all, he was post tear then ;))

yeah good point

Post by: blaster on January 17, 2006, 09:11:04 PM: I think the '95 boys would do better. Smaller waists, more muscular looking.

Flex wheeler '99 best ever.

1993 Yates would do well, but not a post 1993 version.

Sun Tzu ;)

i kept that book in the bathroom and read it for quite a few weeks.

There is enough bacteria in that book to encompass yin and yang, cold and heat, and the constraints of the seasons.

I said top 6 Flex was not in the top 6 in 1995.

Post by: aliamini on January 18, 2006, 06:46:37 AM: I don’t think Gunter and Victor would even be close to the 95 Top 6

Lets say 2005 top 6 at their best Vs. 95 top 6 at their best:

1st and 2nd: Dorian and Ronnie depending on what the judges want
3rd & 4th: Gustavo and Kevin
5th: Jay
6th: Nasser
7th: Shawn
8th: Chris
9th: Vince

Then again judging depends on what the judges are use to see (type of physiques)

It was different each year depending on the line up … 1 year they liked Shawn and Labrada’s Physique and the next they wanted Kevin and Nasser … so u never know what the judges are looking for …

Plus the earlier era (early and mid 90) the Bodybuilders were much leaner and harder … now I don’t know if it was the lighting, tanning, photography or simply some drugs were available and legit that time that are not now a days. So there days we have more mass but lack hardness … more muscularity but lack definition.

I bet Lee would love some of them now.. They've been playing pizzaria for a while now

Post by: CT on January 18, 2006, 09:19:16 AM: Way too hard to find exact contest shots of all the competitors. Here's a little comparison, not all guys are there and I added Flex. But it's a start.
Title: Re: If we took the top 6 from last years Mr O and sent them back in time 10 years
Post by: ANAL DISCHARGE on January 19, 2006, 12:01:33 PM: Easy one. Dorian's 95 physique is just about the best ever - even with subpar bicep. See Paul Dillet's comments at the time about how Dorian looked. In fact that top 6 overall was better than 2005. Look how dry those guys were at the 95. The detail on Shawn Ray that year is amazing. Ronnie and Cutler don't come close - probably due to their ever increasing amounts of insulin use. Feel the power.
