all the long winded explanations in the world cannot overcome the reality of the comparisons..
everyone can see that.
No, you have yet to explain why Ronnie 1999 would defeat Dorian Yates through the rounds of a bodybuilding contest. Bodybuilding contests are evaluated for two things:
Muscularity: This encompasses muscle size, separations, striations and hardness. Dorian and Ronnie are roughly equivalent in muscle size, with Ronnie being more separated and Dorian being harder. So they tie in muscularity.
Symmetry: This relates to the proportionality of muscles in relation to each other. Dorian only has one muscle weakness(biceps) and Ronnie has several(large glutes, no calves and a gut). So Dorian is more symmetrical through the symmetry round as well as mandatories.
As for shape, it is subjective and bodybuilders with shapes as different as Wheeler and Nasser have won pro shows, so there is no point there. I think that Dorian's back has better shape than Ronnie's, with the lats attaching right in the tendom, and his abs are more shapely as well as his calves. Again, a matter os taste.
So, in conclusion: Dorian wins because he is just as muscular as Ronnie but has less symmetrical flaws. This is my argument for why Dorian is better. You have been unable to provide an argument for why Ronnie 1999 would win except posting pictures of Ronnie where he looks better to
you. How is that supposed to prove anything?
its why, when shown the comparison pics, everyone votes ronnie, and no one except you and two others, vote dorian.
there are several factors for this. The one most important is that Dorian retired a decade ago, while Ronnie is still competing. Lots of the people who voted are kids who were babies the last time Dorian won a Sandow, so they don't remember his greatness. Don't underestimate the celebrity factor. The other reason for this is that the people who voted are not seasoned I.F.B.B judges, and they didn't cast their votes while having the official I.F.B.B judging criteria in mind.

and I don't 'hate' you, so that has nothing to do with me diagreeing with your post. I just think you are a complete moron who lives for dorian's sperm pudding.
This coming from the guy who considers Ronnie the greatest bodybuilder ever: greater than Arnold, Sergio, Haney, etc. While I, conversely, only consider Dorian one of the best ever. The best of all times? No. Better than Ronnie Coleman? definitely!
