I don't know whether it's the bodyfat that's hiding it, but his injuries look like they aren't as bad. His lat and tricep used to recede quite a bit. Now his symmetry has improved by leaps and bounds.
I still think he should diet down and just be super freaky, but a little more healthy. He could still guest pose and everything, it'd just be healthier to carry less overall mass and less fat. Much more presentable. It's not like Ronnie would look "small" by any means. But whatever makes the King happy.
