I guess it really depends on what you mean by "genetics" for bodybuilding.  I always look at it as the frame someone has and the shape of the muscle bellies, etc.  Dorian looks just like any other skinny runt in that photo.

I think frame is a part of it but so is drug response and muscle shape and insertions. Bone length also.

Well, he def had the "drug response" genetic.  No doubt about that.

Yes, really show me any pic of these guys prior to working out. Have you seen Wheeler?  He was pathetic in his first show. Some of the best if not the best genetics ever depending on how you view it.

I like you Wiggs, but that pic to me looks like Dorian is about ready to go down on Freddy Mercury, That is who the other guy is, right? Skins....

and he won...
Rich Gaspari wouldn't even place well during Dorian's reign.
Gaspari had a great chest, crappy arms, ok legs, terrible abs, ok back, and ok delts. He was very vascular.

And he did beat a young Vic Richards...
he had great legs parker,,and either by design by the powers to be or his hard work ethic he was 2nd best bber for those 4 yrs peak but his genetic advantages and disavantages will always be second place due to whom he was compared 2 LEE HANEY...he beat taller symmetrical guys paris/demey/..short aesthetic guys labrada /guillame,ashley,,rich had thick muscle,conditioned thick muscle,decent shape yes ,blocky waist yes,but he was regarded as great pro for that time.
