The "knock" on Vince was always his legs (and age he started competing later than most) as far as Lee Haney it was the sum of his parts/structure that made him Awesome,he had shape/mass and an overall  crazy "flow" to his physique ...(this pic of Haney blew me away when I first saw it)

Theese endless debates, repeating the same arguments over and over to convince someone of your opinion, just reeks of looser. I get AIDS in my eyes when I stumble upon them.

Watched the videos. Can agree with Haney being better. But Dorian looks good next to him. Legs like I said are better with Dorian, the videos just confirms this. Haney has a better chest and arms look bigger than Dorian's, which is remarkable since Haney doesn't have very good arms when viewing his physique as a whole.

Neither of them looks razor sharp.

Vince Taylor looked great next to them, upperbody wise anyway.

I was at the 91 British Grand Prix and Vince brought the house down.
It could have gone either way, he looked fantastic.

I think not being able to correctly spell the word loser has to be up there as well.     :P

I think most people here would be surprised at actual cold measurement arm size on the Pro BB's of that era.


Didn't matter what the tape said and the judges sure weren't measuring.


A cut up and shredded arm will always look bigger than it really "seems" to be ~

ps in 1992 vince won just about every contest except the olympia

he peaked for the Arnold that year, and famously got an eye injury and showed up in bad shape for the olympia that year.

prob. wouldn't have beaten yates anyway as yates was pre tear then, but would have finished a lot higher than the 6th place he got.

In my book yes. Ray should do the same. I think Vince won a bunch of masters shows,no?
