thank you but no, Arnold, Franco and Lou Ferrigno had massive chest, but I do try my best. I'm very much into golden era type of bodybuilding though (big chests, vacuum pose, v-tapers, huge arms, muscular legs but not too big where they overpower the upper body)
Yet, you don't mention JOJ or even early Branch Warren...

Based on that posing video, I see him not beating heath because back is compulsory to win in the olympia and he wouldn't beat heath at that.

Chris had a quality look Victor always lacked, it’s like victor and his era was the start of all the bloofy bber looks, Victor looked all gh and insulin, with lots of obvious oil in his arms and calves. Vic is a very overrated bber, always has and always will

Even his 2007 Olympia look wasn’t all that compared to chris in 99

What oil?

He was already 5’9/5’10

Around a good height for a competitor and O winning potential

Don’t need to be 6 ft, look at the O winners the last 30+ years, no one was a 6 footer

I was saying that if  he had been taller with that shape and structure, noone would have beat him.. same with Charles Clairmonte or Thiery Pastel...As it was Ronnie overpowered him..  I'm 6'2" and in the pic I tower over him, so he was maybe 5'9" at best. I wouldnt tower over Arnold, or Ronnie.. and yeah I know Jay isnt tall, met him too- but he was as wide as he is tall, and thats hard to beat! It was freaky to see.

JOJ has some of the best chest development seen today. And young Branch as well. And Branch has won the Arnold, multiple times

One of the most complete bodybuilders of that era. Zero weak points and a good poser (other than the ass shaking) I guess not having a freak factor was his only weakness considering that’s what was rewarded during most of his career
