Im also a fan of Haney's and much prefer his look, and feel his era was the best (not the most competitive, that was early and mid 90's, but the best era), however, things change, and evidently not always for the best.
Ronnie was the best of his time, and he had to evolve and change his look to remain the best, much like Haney would've had to do, if he wished to compete against Dorian, something Haney would not have been able to do, the main reason being he was an intelligent bber.
like it or not, these 3 were the best of their respective time, and unbeatable when at their best
