Whatever year this photo was taken in...

Bodybuilding was hugely popular when Steve Reeves portrayed Hercules in movies in 1959 and 1960. Bodybuilding died when everyone 'knew' they used drugs. Women's bodybuilding died when they started to look like blokes.

ND why can't you understand that Dorian looks like trash.? Why?

because he is a complete and total idiot.

just see the truce thread for 1300 pages of proof.

I think think Vince nailed it. When people realized that BB is mostly about drugs.
For me it was a shock to read about what bbs take, and the fascination of it is
gone.

I'm a bit puzzled by the fact that changing this is easy. Don't award the big guys,
award symmetry. Bob u listening?

1994:

Again you post a single picture of a relaxed Yates as some sort of proof that supports your claim and it only highlights your ignorance , again from an aesthetics standpoint Yates looks like garbage , however thats NOT why he won , he won because he was the biggest , densest and best conditioned athlete period ,  and just see the truce thread for be correcting your ignorance for 1300 pages 


the 1994 Mr Olympia was no contest

No, a lot of people don't know BBing is 99% drugs.
Most of non-initiated people think Arnold is natural...

Right.
Dorian shouldn't even have been placed < 10 in 1994 (an 1996)
He fad the biggest gut of all competitors (+ no arms, no legs, ... nothing):

Those are some of the sickest shots I've ever seen of Yates.......man is a machine.

agreed.

notice how ND only posts pics of dorian's back, which in 1994 wasn't even the best in the contest (at least as far as the back double bi goes). It was still pretty good though.

from the front side, dorian was an abomination in 1994..arms and legs just..

just look at this:

LMFAO Hulkster cherry picking what he things wins contests lol and again selective posting of pictures highlights your ignorance , again you post a few select shots thinking should loose the whole contest bases on that the pinnacle of bias , try these 

and I could harp all over Ray's weaknesses it doesn't change anything Yates was in NO danger what so ever of losing in 1994 , now 2001 thats a whole other story
