in case you didn't notice, no one has ever remained as competitive at the top levels for as long as Ronnie has.
the only one was dickerson who won the O at 42, but competition in 82 was not was it was in the 2000's.
ND cannot understand this, and insists that Vince Taylor and Albert Beckles who barely placed in contests late in their careers is the same as Ronnie placing second and fourth at the Mr. Olympia...
Hmm yes many have remained on the competitive top levels as long as Ronnie , perfect example Shawn Ray who competed from 1988 until 2001 and ONLY finished below 5th place ONCE
Lee Labrada went from 1985 until 1995 without EVER placing below 5th place
So you're wrong on that count
and you can claim they were younger but thats not the point you claimed you said NO ONE remained on the top levels as Ronnie
And Al Beckles was much older than Ronnie when he regularly placed and won many shows from all the way from 1970 up until 1986 where he NEVER placed below 10th in a contests with many of them being top 5 , so once again you're dead wrong
Beckles was 32 in 1970 and 46 in 1984 when he won 3 pro shows and got a 3rd place at the Olympia and in 1985 he was 47 and won a pro show and got second in the Mr Olympia
the whole point is do NOT use age as an excuse for the way Ronnie looks , its not an excuse thats twice you been proven wrong .
