1996 German Grand Prix Kevin Levrone

Paul Demayo beats Dorian in the side tricep pose, all day...

I don't know, but this pic alone proves what I was trying to say.

Paul Demayo's triceps destroy Dorian's triceps, but overall Dorian wins the pose.

[NarcissisticDeity]

Exactly, but his side tricep pose kills the rest because his overall physique is better as far as judging criteria, not because his triceps alone are something special. I never said he loses a side tricep pose by the way, all I said is his arms were poor.

If Dorian's quads were fine, then so were Ronnie's abs.  

So putting judging criteria mentality aside, Dorian looks better than Arnold or Flex to you?

I've to disagree.

If you think the above arm is poor by any definition of the word , please get a new eye prescription

Ronnie's abs were fine but his ab-thigh sucked compared to Dorian

In some poses Dorian looks better than Arnold & Flex regardless of the criteria

[JP_RC]

No the tricep has nothing at all to do with the pose looking great 

Oh yes it does, don't twist my words.

All I'm saying is Dorian's triceps (or overall arms) were nothing special. Compare his side triceps pose with guys like Levrone, Priest, etc. they all have better triceps, but overall lose the pose. You just said so with Paul Demayo............

Your pic of Dorian here proves my what I'm trying to say.

think proportions have something there

was thinkn tho, if you add the extra mass to the frame in that pics, mainly chest back trap leg even midsection,,, would the arm really "look" the same.

think his arm is shrdd yes and great build, thats the way he made his proportions... only really control we have as bbrs

You said he had poor arms it's impossible to have among the best side triceps of all time with poor arms it can't be done sorry

Dorian's condition is unmatched! Just look at this, no a drop of water, fat, or anything, just a brick shithouse of muscle.

HOLY SHIT DORIAN WAS A BEAST!!!

[Danimal77]

HOLY SHIT DORIAN WAS A BEAST!!!

That doesn't sound gay AT ALL 

[bigbobs]

HOLY SHIT NASSER WAS A BEAST!!!

He sure was!

[Parker]

He sure was!

The Beast With No Back

[bigbobs]

The Beast With No Back

Actually his back width was right up there

[NarcissisticDeity]

Actually his back width was right up there

280lbs his back width was right up there with guys who weight 40lbs less  and back width was right up there? to bad the separation , development , detail , thickness and density all weren't maybe the guy would have won the big one.

[Parker]

Actually his back width was right up there

Back width with subpar back detail, epic lack of mind muscle connection . He was all front

[Sherief Shalaby]

Back width with subpar back detail, epic lack of mind muscle connection . He was all front

even if we consider his back a bad part (it's not) still the rear doesnt mean the back only to say he was only a front bb!!.. he had one of the greatest calves and hams and the rear of his shoulders and arms were 2nd to none!!..

levrone for example had better back details than nasser but did he have better calves, hams, rear shoulders, arms??... nooooooooo...

[Jaime]

There is not a single pose that Dorian looks better in than a prime Flex or Arnold.

If you asked a million people 99% would say that Arnold and Flex destroyed dorian.

The differences in shape, aesthetics, structure and flow are almost beyond comprehension.

Or the other way around, is there any pose that Arnold or Flex could beat Dorian in?  Maybe front double bi after Dorian's bicep tear.  That's about it.

  It's pretty clear that Dorian wouldn't win anything. All Dorian had was conditioning, that along with some of the worst genetics to ever grace a bodybuilding stage.

You transport him back to the seventies, where he can't megadose on slin, HGH and dieuretics and Arnold would make him look like a child.

Further proof that bodybuildng has not progressed since the 90s  

As for Dorian looking like "shit" . . .

[/q

Yates was absolutely dominating.  Probably the most dominating bodybuilder in history with Arnold right there as well.  And this was during the ultra competitive '90s.   

Calves look great.

Says you , I say other wise , Arnold or Flex at their best can't touch Dorian in a front latspread or a rear , couldn't touch Dorian in a side-triceps or back double biceps

the difference in density , dryness , thickness , balance and muscularity are almost beyond comprehension.

[jwb]

I think Yates looked great at the 1991 Night Of Champions.

After that his torso made his arms look poor.

[NarcissisticDeity]

even if we consider his back a bad part (it's not) still the rear doesnt mean the back only to say he was only a front bb!!.. he had one of the greatest calves and hams and the rear of his shoulders and arms were 2nd to none!!..

levrone for example had better back details than nasser but did he have better calves, hams, rear shoulders, arms??... nooooooooo...

His back is bad , his back is horrible you can't escape that and neither could he , his back was a huge ( no pun ) flaw and cost him the Olympia , his back was wide and that's it , it had no separation , no detail , no thickness , no depth , and no hardness

anyone who says his back wasn't a ' bad part ' needs to learn a lot about bodybuilding
