Mr. Olympia Poll: who has the worst arms..Dorian or Dickerson?

[SweetMuscles]

Yates had very respectable 21 inch arms before injury. But Mr Olympia is not 'Mr Arms' or 'Mr Beach bod'. The guy with the best muscle mass and condition usually wins. This is why Dorian destroyed the competition and dominated his era in a way that Coleman never could

[MCWAY]

Both these guys had great-looking arms, prior to their respective injuries. Yates has massive guns, that looked like rock. Dickerson had great peaks on his biceps. If you're going to compare the two, why not compare them, when they were at their best (before they got hurt)?

I beg to differ. Dorian dominated the competition in some Olympias and barely squeaked by the competition in others, namely 1994 and 1996.

Same goes for Ronnie. His first Olympia win was by a mere three points; and he eeked by Jay Cutler in 2001 (and some question his win over Levrone in 2002). In the other Olympias, especially 2003, Ronnie steamrolled his opponents, making his wins a mere formality.

Look at the scorecards. He had massive leads over next place. Coleman is the one who squeaked by on a few points.
 To armchair experts things might be close but to qualified IFBB judges, it wasn't.

Of course, we'll have the Coleman and Levrone fanboys talk about judging being corrupt - like they are better qualified HAHAHAHAHA but the fact remains, Yates was always miles ahead in the scoring in a way that Coleman rarely ,if ever, was.

[pumpster]

imo, dickerson is worst o winner on list, save for 1981 columbu

dorian yates...worst arms....no doubt about it

Sometimes referred to as the Columbu of the 90s.

[JohnnyVegas]

so far, I think Chris has the edge

Dude, Dickerson may not have  the best arms in O history, but this is one balanced and worthy Mr. O;

[OneMoreRep]

If you were to transpose this picture as to have both men standing directly in front of each other with Dorian in back, it would make for a great photoshop!

I already mentioned the Olympias that Ronnie won by the skin of his teeth, namely his first one (1998) and his fourth one (2001).

However, he had others where he won going away, most notably #2 (1999) and #6 (2003).

The funny thing is about scorecards is that, on another thread a few months ago, when I mentioned that Ronnie barely won his first Olympia, referring to his three-point victory, I got criticized by two guys (who for some reason can't stand Flex Wheeler), claiming that Ronnie "owned" Flex during that show.

Dorian had his squeaker wins and he had his "why did anyone else bother to show up" wins. The same goes for Ronnie. And one such squeaker win for Dorian was 1994. There ain't no way he was miles ahead of near-perfect Shawn Ray, when he showed up considerably smoother, with 1^1/2arms.

Ronnie had the same jaw-dropping effect on the judges and fans in 2003, that Dorian had a decade prior.

[Arkadius]

use introspection

So what you say is that Zane arms better than Samirs

[Arkadius]

  Scott is killing Ronnie here LOL

[mesmorph78]

dorian had better arms... than chris..
and the words
arms larry scott and ronnie coleman better
should not be in the same sentence
because there is no comparision

[suckmymuscle]

  Dorian owns Ronnie in arms except in the front double biceps. Side triceps, back double biceps, overral arm muscularity in the relaxed round, it's all Dorian.

no.. ..
not even in your wildest dreams

[Arkadius]

And Haney having better arms than Oliva?

[MCWAY]

And Haney having better arms than Oliva?

Haney's arms have better peak and his triceps have those crazy striations.

Plus, it appears that you have pics of Haney in contest shape with pics of Oliva (clearly) in off-season mode. I don't think that's a fair assessment.

[bodybuilder1234]

Yes, Dorian had the worst arms out of any Mr Olympia 
Funny thread but pretty stupid

How can a bodybuilder have arguably the best side tricep pose in history have bad arms?

[NarcissisticDeity]

dorian yates or chris dickerson:

 

Ha HA HA Hulkster begging for people to agree with him and it backfired in his face as usual lol and you post pics of Yates from 1996 where like Coleman in 2002 his arms were down in size as ' proof ' lol you're so simple but hey after the ass pounding you took on KNOWINGLY posting photoshopped pics you need to try and get even lol

These pics are of Dorian are ALL post tear , his triceps & forearms are outstanding his biceps weren't ever that great so to say his ARMS are the worse is typical retarded Hulkster nonsense , consider yourself corrected as usual

[bigbalddaddy]

Dorian for sure...this is getting too easy...
