Jay wins that pose hands down. The photo is deceptive because will Will Grant says above - it was caught in time - a fraction later and you would have also seen Jay contracting his glutes and hams which would have brought him into line with Ronnie.
To be honest, Ronnie was gifted a few Olympias in his time, 98 was one of them, then was another. Levrone arguably beat him as well one of the years.
Ronnie has the superior back, glutes, hams...Jay has a decent back, but has tons of wrinkles in the lower back...if things were reversed, it would have gone to Jay...fact is, Ronnie is expected to have a superior back, so anything less than stellar, is a lose in most books...Ronnie was never "knocked out" in any Mr. O he won...Jay on the other hand was...
1998, Ronnie won hands down over Flex, Flex didin't come in his 98 Arnold shape, which killed his chances....you lose credibility in saying that Ronnie was gifted 98's win, even Milos, Levrone, Flex and Nasser agree that Ronnie won hands down.
