how so? any argument concerning aethetics and shape yates is no doubt going to be on the short end of the stick. sure, he was always grainy, and he always had the best back on stage while he was competing. but that doesnt necessarily mean he should be the champ. when people are killing you from the front, and much more aesthetic, just as conditioned, and the only thing you got on them is a back... why should you win?
Dorian NEVER won because of aesthetics that means dick , maybe to you it does but in reality it means zero , Yates beat among the most aesthetic bodybuilders of all time , you're high if you think Coleman is aesthetic to boot
please learn that all rounds are physique rounds what that means is every single part of the criteria is assessed in every single pose , so while you think Dorian is getting killed from the front he's not and why? because he meets the criteria better than his contemporaries hence why is recieved straight firsts in almost every single Olympia contest he won
judges look for muscular bulk , density & dryness , balance & proportion , posing & presentation in every single pose from every single angle and although some competitors beat Yates in PART of the criteria all rounds are physique rounds and that means Dorian beats all of his contemporaries in ALL of the criteria as a whole.
