Thanks for the video, but be ready for some idiots to say that the video is "fake".

Shawn's taper is ridculous there.   Ronnie showed one of the craziest backs I have ever seen.  From the relaxed shot, his lats never looked so thick and his triceps never looked so good.

I've always believed that Ronnie's delts are way underrated.  They have the best shape out of any other bodybuilder I've ever seen and their detail is just sick.

I don't know. Ronnie's gut had laready begun there (and he couldn't even fully suck his abs in during the ab-thigh pose). Some parts of him are amazing but others (calves and distended abs) are poor. But Flex's ridiculously FAKE calves just piss me off.

His gut was evident in 1998

Just finished watching Shawn ray - he should have won that show. Looked incredible (although not as good as 1994). I would have given it to Ronnie but his distended abs and worse proportion make Shawn better. Although, Ronnie's insane muscle is very impressive.

Ronnie first, no question about it.

Cormier second, then Ray (unbelievable taper....how thick was your waist there?)

Flex fourth, then Levrone (weird tan, color didn't bring out any details)

Nasser last....but, he looks like he is the only one out there actually enjoying himself. Incidentally, although his back lags from his front it is not as bad as everyone says and should have at least one olympia to his name.

I don't think there has ever been a bodybuilder thus far that could beat Ronnie on that night.

flaws and all.  He had too many strengths combined with a great taper with a tiny waist. And he was massive (257) to boot.

agreed.

but don't be fooled by the the dorian nuthuggers who say ronnie's delts are "nothing special"

they get praise everwhere.

everytime I watch the video, a few things stand out:

-Ronnie's quads are CRAZY in 1999 (much much better than the 1998 O)
-so was his back (that back double bi is just insane)
-his waist was really tiny back then.

hahahaha

if dorian showed up looking like he did in 97, Chris Cormeir would probably beat him, never mind Ronnie...



in his 99 shape, I think even Chris was better than dorian in his 97 shape. He might have placed third behind Ronnie and Chris.

Wrong.



With the same access to gear and slin that Ronnie had, Arnold would have destroyed him.

on a side note, do you think that Arnold had the genetics to build huge quads to go along with his already massive arms and chest?

I have to wonder..even with today's GH and the like, just as Ronnie will never have (relatively) massive calves or great abs, could Arnold do it?

Its just funny how he had a massive upper body with huge calves, but skinny quads..

I realize that legs are much more 'emphasized' today than they were back then, but still. It makes you wonder whether or not this might have been a genetic shortcoming.
