Against who? Jay Cutler & Dexter Jackson? lol is that a joke? was he so far ahead of the mediocre competition that he didn't need to be included in the muscularity round?
93 was a novelty in that the judges never let it happened again. If Dorian was at his prime in 95, then how come he was called out in the muscularity round?
Quote Samir Yates , was first , second and third . Yates just dominated such a deep quality field there is no question 1993 was better than 2003 as far as quality
good job Dave man. So you have a quote? I have quotes too.
Shawn Ray – 2003 Year in Review (Hosted on Bodybuilding.com)"Ridiculous" Ronnie Coleman would win his 6th Sandow Trophy in a row looking absolutely ridiculous! This guy was from another planet! Ronnie added about a million pounds of muscle from the previous year and squashed the competition on sheer MASS! Unbelievable is what Ronnie was this night!"
Flex Wheeler – MD, February 2004"Everyone was in awe. I almost bit my tongue a number of times sitting in the crowd watching him. I never ever imagined a human being could look like that. People were just shaking their heads"
Paul Dillet - MD, February 2004"Understand that if Ronnie walked away tomorrow, I do not think anyone can measure up to the standards he has set. Just like Sergio Oliva, an awesome bodybuilder way ahead of his time, and like Flex Wheeler, who had an absolutely perfect, beautiful physique. No one will match Serigo or Flex and now Ronnie."
Mike Matarazzo - Flex, January 2004"Ronnie had so much dense muscle that it looked as though his skin could no longer hold it and he'd explode. His quads were so full and dense, they don't look real. He's an amazing individual, an amazing athlete. He's just a freak."
Dexter Jackson - Flex, January 2004"As to Ronnie, that dude is by far the best bodybuilder on earth, he is in a class by himself, and no one will be able to touch him for years to come."
John Hansen, 2x Mr. Natural Universe and Mr. Natural Olympia - Personal Website"It would be safe to say that [Ronnie Coleman] presented a physique that has never been seen by the bodybuilding world ever before. Competing at an incredibly massive 287 pounds, Ronnie destroyed the competition with a physique that could not possibly be equaled."
Ryan Mackie - A Fan Perspective: My 2003 Olympia Experience (Hosted on Bodybuilding.com)"Everyone could see that at 287 pounds this was Ronnie's night and that he was back on top of his game and furthermore bodybuilding had just seen the bar of excellence raised even further. Just like Dorian Yates did in 1993 when he set a new standard, Ronnie has now taken it even further leaving all his competitors wonder what they have to do to now catch Ronnie Coleman, let alone beat him."
