Ronnie doesn't come close to Haney or Yates in the front latspread and never did .

I sent you a PM.

Shane Dimora had an excellent front lat spread

dorian had great lats, but was so god damn smooth and devoid of detail you can't even tell if he is in contest shape or not: $:-\$

Hulkster · « **Reply #54 on:** October 17, 2007, 02:56:36 PM »

now this is a great lat spread.

wide thick lats.

narrow waist.

and DETAIL esp in the pecs and arms. something that dorian did not have, as we can clearly see.

not saying Ronnie had the best lat spread ever, but it WAS much better than dorian's.\

So, to answer the question posed in this thread: NO dorian did NOT have the greatest front lat spread of all time.

Neither did Ronnie, although like all the other poses, his was better than the early 90's Mr. O.

I think that the nod to best lat spread goes to Haney.

Someone is forgetting something

Flex magazine Jan 1992 on Dorian Yates

" Dorian has the type of physique that looks much better and more powerfull in person than photos. I personally saw him onstage , and Yates if definitely light years ahead of the way he looks in photos.

MuscleMag International Feb 1994 on Dorian Yates at the 1993 Mr Olympia

" He's huge , absolutely HUGE ...he's ripped completely RIPPED. And while he's not in possession of the prettiest physique body by a long shot , he's equipped with all the bodyparts you need to win .

Combine this with the fact that he's 10 TIMES more impressive when you see him onstage at the Olympia than he is in pictures or on videos and you got yourself a winner.

" Chris Cormier standing next to Dorian onstage he sensed ' radiation coming off him , like an aura. ' The power of that muscle was tangible. It exerted a force all of its own. Cormier thought ' I might as well forget about this guy and concentrate on being second. ' There was something else , too , strange. You had to witness him in the flesh. such granite hardness had a property that could nor be held on film or caught on paper. You had to see it live.

Peter McGough Flex Magazine May 2002

Let it be said that the camera can lie at physique contests. Some guys look great onstage but not so great on final film (Dorian Yates, for one) and vice versa (Shawn Ray is an example).

Please don't comment on Dorian's conditioning on pictures & video

LMFAO I mean where do you come up with this shit? typical Hulkster move hyper focus on what you consider strengths for Ronnie and make empty statements

Dorian crushes Ronnie in this pose despite NOT having naturally narrow waist & hips ever wonder why? because he has superior balance & proportion ! great job posting a FULL BODY pic BTW

Ronnie's front latspread isn't better than Dorians not when he lacks in world class calves , great proportion between all the muscles from head to toe not when you can see his fucking glutes from the front for Christ's sake !! he's a collection of parts that doesn't add up to the best whole

he does have advantages in this pose compared to Dorian , but overall Ronnie isn't close few are.

Oh yeah real crappy !

just because they don't look like Ronnies doesn't mean they're crappy ! Dorian's front latspread is among the best ever despite NOT having the best ' parts '

No they don't they were good enough , especially to hand Ronnie and his fantastic arms his ass for 6 years !

i'm not exactly the biggest Lee Haney fan but you have to admit his FLS was absolutely incredible but in most every other pose he was tremendously overrated.

Yates rules if you like nice smooth, smallish arms as part of the equation. $:-\$

I forgot, arms don't matter in this pose.

If you say so

90% of your posts are in that ludicrous "Ronnie vs. Dorian" thread.

We get it, you are in love with Dorian Yates

ND is right Yates owns this pose. No one else is close. And hulkster I like you but whenn I read your post about dorian f-in yates being smooth.... it dropped my respect for you.

Dorian owns this pose , looking at the complete package, Dorian's arms were not as bad as Ronnie's LACK of calves...

Calves arent necessarily the issue its Dorian just being a freak in this pose. I think Ronnie is the best bodybuilder ever, but theres no way in hell he beats yates in this pose.

Hulkster · « **Reply #73 on:** October 17, 2007, 06:07:07 PM »

I love how you claim ronnie has all these flaws and then you post 4 shots of dorian showing the smoothest arms, chest and quads in front lat spread history..

you really have no clue do you? $:-\$

probably why everyone is ganging up on you: you don't know what you are talking about.

dorian was smooth in the arms and quads.

believing the hype and not using your eyes has dropped my respect for YOU

honestly: $:-\$
