I saw him in person, actually i sat next to him in small ass chairs ( but reall small ass chairs, my ass couldn't fit that well i thought they will bring him special bigger chair )
well he was massive as fuk, but not as wide as i thought...

Funny you guys say that about Dexter! After the Flex pro show in L.A. he was walking around in a shirt. My G.F. pointed him out and said "Look that guy must be his that black guys brother who was on stage" I said "No babe thats him" she said "OMG he looks so small in a shirt" hahahah!!!

I always wanted to see Marcus in person. Coleman must have been incredible, but Marcus must have you that "wtf huge' factor going just because of his width. Cutler was humongous when I saw him but didnt look like much of a 'bodybuilder'- stalky and blocky with no veins at all

Maybe you should have asked him what his delt routine was like big guy?

I've seen both Ronnie and Jay several times. I'll echo that Ronnie in his prime was an absolute monstrosity. Kind of a prick, though. Dexter was tiny, also a prick.

Titus looked like a douche in a Kangol cap and North Carolina blue tank.

Tom Prince offseason was inhumanly massive.

Vince Taylor was the nicest, most personable guy and has incredible arms.

Liar Priest is an awkward man for sure. Looked like he wanted to crawl under the folding table and hide from people.

Dexter is a prick in person.   I met his tiny ass at a BB show a few years and and he is a douche.

I saw Ronnie when I went to Vegas for the '08 Olympia - he was signed photos at the BSN booth. I didn't join the queue but it was still cool to see him in person - the vein in his bicep was as thick as my middle finger - unreal - probably one of the most impressive bodybuilders I've ever seen. Unfortunately I never got to see Jay at the Expo so I can't compare the two. I did see Dennis James in the lobby wearing a tank-top and all tanned up ready for the prejudging - again, very impressive - couldn't get over the contest shape size and conditioning - up to that point I'd only seen a few good UK amateurs in contest shape off the stage itself and I thought that was fairly good - these guys were just in another league altogether.

some friends of mine have seen Jay and Ronnie and apparently, Jay doesn't even look in the same league as Ronnie when "in person"

I saw the Ronster backstage at the 98 O...he looked amazing. freaking huge and shredded....he nailed it and he knew it.

then we bullshitted a little an hour later waiting for a cab on the side of MSG he was with Vickie and I was with my ex.....Really just a nice man...very humble and had like an innocent quality....he couldn't believe he won....he said that at least 5 times.

Ive seen Yates, Gunter, Jay, Ronnie, Nasser, Dillett, and Levrone in person.


Ronnie, Yates, and Gunter were the most impressive. 

Jay was the coolest out of those guys.

Just from reading all those posts I really miss this guy from the pro scene.. :'(.

I dont think we will ever see a guy like that up there...the new crop of pros is slowly comming to the scene...no charisma, they all look the same, same training, same clothes same attitude..

no one

i agree.

i guess hes like basketballs michael jordan or hockeys wayne gretzky. every once in a very few decades someone comes along and totally dominates their field and sets a standard that will never be surpassed.

I met Ronnie back in 2008. Huge as a house. He weighed around 280-290.

I also met Jay this year one week after he won the Mr. O. He was huge as well, but he didn't have that, "That fucker is huge" look like Ronnie did.

I saw Ronnie walk through the lobby of the Mandalay Bay casino before the Olympia in 2001 and the dude was unreal.  He didn't even look like a real person.  His shoulders and back are what stood out.  I met him a year or so later and he was just as impressive up close.  Huge dude.

Bodybuilding is an ILLUSION AT TIMES .. Shawn in his prime, Phil Heath, Benfatto, Labrada, Zane, etc... But when it comes to Coleman, there is NO illusion. Rumor is that in prson he was super massive. So let us hear who seemed almost regular in clothing up and close and who seemed larger than life.



To the best of my knowledge, Ronnie is one of the few black people who hasnt been to prison.

I've already been to the zoo and seen the gorilla enclosure.  Sir Ronald of Coleslaw will shrink with time and the absence of copious amounts of dope in his turgid physique.  When that happens, even those that worship him will make fun of him.

I saw ronnie up close at the expo and "meet the olympians" at the Olympia in 2007. He was huge standing next to normal folks. Jay was big and ripped but didn't look that freaky. However the two biggest and most superhuman by a mile were Dennis Wolf and Toney Freeman. I felt like a child beside them. They even made all the other pro's look almost normal. Freeman's arm looked about 24". On the other hand, I shook hands with Dexter and Dugdale and felt big standing next to them. Bob Chicherillo was hanging around and he's a big dude in person.
