3 Best Backs in the HISTORY OF THE SPORT

[NeoSeminole]

Why are his panties stuck up his ass?

maybe he likes the way it feels? Why don't you e-mail Ronnie for an answer?

Meltdown

Meltdown

yeah, okay. There was nothing abusive or instigating about my post.

[Mr.1derful]

that's not even a mandatory pose. But if you insist, Ronnie's back looked just as less detailed and even thicker not as dense or wide.

Around the same approximate competitive time period as the pic you posted and it shows that Ronnie is out of his league.  You opened the door and once again it gets closed in your face. Thanks again for playing.  Please try again.

what is a pic of a prime Dorian standing next to a juvenile Ronnie supposed to prove?

Just as detailed ? lmfao his x-mass tree is NO WHERE near as defined and razor sharp as Dorian and he looks thicker?        where? sorry kid but now I'm beginning to understand why you think he's better than Yates , you see things that aren't there

[NarcissisticDeity]

His back is huge and smooth compared to Dorian and it lacks Yates' type detail this pics are proof yet again of when Ronnie became heavier everything fell apart in terms of balance & proportion , density & detail

[NarcissisticDeity]

That's 1996 which is NOT Dorian's prime  and Ronnie was 250 pounds in 1996 almost the exact same weight as he was at the 2001 Arnold Classic

What this pic proves is , no matter how much weight Ronnie would put on his traps would never be as big as Dorian's , his teres & infraspinatus would never be as big as Dorians , his lats would never insert as low as Dorians , it also proves how small Ronnie's torso is compared to Dorians , unlike your fantasy comparison pics where the have the same length torsos lol and lats and calves

Dorian is just 7 pounds heavier than Ronnie and his back is noticeably wider , thicker and bigger overall , so to say Ronnie's back at almost the same weight ( 2001 ASC ) is thicker & wider than Dorians at 257/260/269 lbs respectively is retarded an flat out wrong

Dole out all the 2003 pics you want Neo.  In fact, here is the vid.  Yes, Ronnie is huge, no doubt.  However, Yates' conditioning blows him right out of the water.  It isn't even close.  Ronnie looks several weeks out from the contest and several months into his pregnancy.  Meanwhile, Yates looks polished and extremely conditioned with a professional posing routine befitting of a champion.  Not this "raise the roof" crap, with his trunks pulled right up his ass.

He really does make Ronnie look soft

VERY!   

[NarcissisticDeity]

[ Q ] So you were aiming for optimal conditioning and the size you were able to maintain pre-contest was a natural consequence of the training you did in the final months and weeks leading into the show?
dots

      I trained for size in the off-season, but when it came time to get ready for a contest it was all about coming in shredded. The glutes must be striated, with the lower back shredded, no water anywhere, no loose skin. Like you are covered in cling-film.

Hulkster , Neo what was that about ' loose skin ' ?

lmfao

I own all of you

[Mr.1derful]

In response to the comparison posting of videos of the much maligned 1995 Yates and the much heralded 2003 Ronnie, all I hear are crickets.  ND, is this the point where we say "check" or "checkmate"?

not only that but Dorian had super thin skin, which helped along his grainy look
not Jay Cutler 2 inch thick skin 

[Mr.1derful]

Looks like Dorian has silenced his critics once again. After his retirement, fans became too accustomed to the substandard conditioning of subsequent champions.  The pairing of the two videos above expose Ronnie's soft conditioning and invalidates the farcical claims of his having raised the bar.  In fact, it is apparent that if anything, Ronnie lowered it.  In terms of Ronnie's posing routine, it can only be described as an utter embarrassment.

Still nothing from the peanut gallery on the above videos.  Still much too afraid to confront the truth!

It's check mate lol

ha ha, "juvenile" when there's only a 2 years difference between the two. if anything it should favour Ronnie.

Gross pretty much covers it. Schwarzenegger said same, Yates isn't BB.

[Mr.1derful]

Gross pretty much covers it.

Agreed.  I too was rather put off by Ronnie's posing routine.  Disgusting, unprofessional and not befitting of a true champion.  An utter embarrassment!  Not to mention his poor conditioning.

[NarcissisticDeity]

stop making up lies , Arnold bitched there were no personalities in the sport and he complained about the way the guys dressed , he also said Yates didn't do enough to promote the sport and he took back off to England after he won , Arnold was out of touch

make your case but to lie in order to do it

[NarcissisticDeity]

Hey someone who gets it

[NeoSeminole]

what does age have to do with anything? This discussion is about whose back was better at their respective primes - not whose back was better during Dorian's prime. Ronnie didn't reach his peak until 5-7 yrs later.
