RONNIE COLEMAN

If I was a judge, he probably wouldn't be in the top 10.

thank god that you are not..clearly he is in off season form

yes, he looks less than stellar but when dieted down he is still impressive..just not as much as in the past

Dam straight he will. While these are off season shots, look at the sheer thickness, and size. Given Ronnie usually looks like shit at this time of the year, I think he looks really good.

The man still has the shock value. It doesnt matter how many times I see pictures of Ronnie everytime I get astounded by his size. I mean look at the size of his legs in these photos and the thickness of the upper body in the first shot.

I think Ronnie will more than likely go top 2.

u talking cock,with this type of condition of course wont get top 10 not even 15...when he conditioned down i bet with u confirm top 6 0r 3!!

I was referring to the glaring weaknesses - damaged lat and triceps.

Also the waistline is continuing to inch up and his back looks incredibly unimpressive.

Of course he'll be ripped for the O. But will he have one arm and a weak back?

Scimowser · « **Reply #6 on:** April 22, 2007, 02:14:57 AM »

no matter where he finishes, it will be atleast a couple of places above where he deserves based on his name

Moen · « **Reply #7 on:** April 22, 2007, 02:22:21 AM »

Obviously he will

While this look is indeed getting worse, if you show these pictures to non-bodybuilders or people who dont know much of this sport they'll say he's a fat cow with some musle

Moen · « **Reply #8 on:** April 22, 2007, 02:24:25 AM »

Btw: what are most people going on about Jay's waist -> Jay's waist & stomach LOOK much smaller than coleman's

Platz · « **Reply #9 on:** April 22, 2007, 03:05:36 AM »

Well actually when i saw the photos from Brazil, i was wondering if he actually would make it in top 6, but now I'm not sure if he could. There is Jay, Victor, Tony, Gustavo, Dexter, DJ, DF, all hungry...I just hope Ronnie doesnt embaress himself. When he diets down, and gets ripped, his weak points will be even more visible.

sandycoosworth · « **Reply #10 on:** April 22, 2007, 03:12:25 AM »

i couldnt believe how small he was at the arnold ... maybe 5'9 and i would be surprised if he weighed more than 275 that day...

Your MAAAAaaaa · « **Reply #11 on:** April 22, 2007, 03:19:21 AM »

I don't know if its because he is in off season condition but his tricep looks to be worse to me.

However these pics are not the greatest for judging due to angles and his condition.

I'm sure he'll be given a position that someone else should get though.

Yeah that sounds about right what most people think he's alot bigger than that. But it's easy to bullshit your weight when you that huge.

sandycoosworth · « **Reply #14 on:** April 22, 2007, 04:03:04 AM »

i assume hes much larger come competition time

SteelePegasus · « **Reply #15 on:** April 22, 2007, 04:46:31 AM »

just a little bit off topic:

1. the guy is a fat cow now yet veins are showing every where
2. Chad is a fucking liar: I read that interview in MD with him and Flex. That cock said that ronnie have nerve damage in the in left lat and that they corrected it.

Dballn247 · « **Reply #16 on:** April 22, 2007, 04:53:55 AM »

It's possible, ithough in light of the new Jay Cutler offseason pics, Ronnies got lots of catching up to do.

bigkubby · « **Reply #17 on:** April 22, 2007, 05:08:28 AM »

heel be top6 but itll be between vic and jay for the title

natural al · « **Reply #18 on:** April 22, 2007, 05:29:33 AM »

depending on his conditioning he'll be at least top 4. If I was a judge he wouldn't be cause in my honest opinion he does not represent what BB is supposed to be about which is really sad cause back in the day he was the perfect example of what a BB should look like. Now even when he's ripped he does not have the seperation or detail he should, his guy is gigantic-does he have a seratus anymore? His tri is a disaster as is his damaged lat and he has no calves. When you first look at him he's tremendous cause of the mass he still caries but once you start to analyze everything that's goin on he looses that initial impressiveness.

If you took the Ronnie Coleman from 1998 and stood him next to the Ronnie coleman of today it would be shocking especially from the back. He used to have one of the greatest back double bi's of alltime now there is no detail what so ever.

Jay isn't exactly what I feel a mr. O should look like but I think he's still gonna win especially if he can streamline his midsection. Dex will be up there as will Vic even though I like him I don't think he's as good as some on here do. Freeman is the wildcard, he's got all the tools to shock everyone, it's just a matter of how his damaged pec looks.

Now it might seem like I'm talking out of my ass picking apart Ronnie's injuries but not Toney's but honestly I don't think Toney's pec is as bad as Ronnie's tri and back and Toney, IMO brings a better package TODAY than Ronnie does.

his back looks incredibly unimpressive.

Name one other current pro who has a better back double bi (besides Cutler and Martinez) even with the torn lat?

Stubbs, sorry I could'nt find the back double bi on such quick notice, however you should be able to get the picture.

stubs, Cutler, dex, Freeman...you nme em these days. Ron has lost alot of his detail...sorry we're not talking Ronnie of 98-2000 we're talking current day ronnie.

You guys are getting being blind with the prejudice of couple of months ago.
I am not his fan and speak truth.

The guy is getting better unexpectedly.
I thought he was over. But look at this,he is much fuller than couple month ago.
If he will dial it in. It will be very interesting Olympia.

You are right. Currently,this is the best back guy.

Dballn247 · « **Reply #24 on:** April 22, 2007, 05:42:51 AM »

I don't know it looks close between these two

This years O is going to be Jay vs some other guys for once. Ronnie not top 3 material anymore. Damaged goods.
