Once again, lets put everything in perspective.
Ronnie lost to Gunter.
Ronnie is still the best BB ever.
What does that say about Ronnie...to lose a contest but still be referred to by most as the best ever...
Various bodybuilders often get referred to as the "Greatest Ever", not just Ronnie. There's no official "Greatest Ever" ranking that solidifies one single bodybuilder in the annals of history. It's subjective and can be based on a myriad of criteria. Just as easily as Ronnie could be deemed the greatest ever for 8 Olympia wins, so too could Lee Haney, perhaps more so based on a far better win/loss record, if one used that as a basis.
What isn't subjective is Ronnie's loss to Gunter. He lost, simple as that. For all of the excuses claiming politics, it's clear Ronnie lost. Why is that unthinkable? Ronnie had lost before, many times. True, it is only one single contest in a long storied career; however, to highlight it is with the intent of reminding certain Ronnie pundits, that despite his dominance at times, he was vulnerable in ways that other champs were not. It is a twist of irony that those that decry Gunter's winning over Ronnie, claiming fraudulent judging, have gladly accepted the decision of the same judging panel at times when a controversial win has been awarded to Ronnie.
