Was this before or after 91?
Because if Haney competed after 92---not only Dorian would have beaten him, Flex, Kev, Nasser, Shawn, and possibly even Paul Dillet. Haney's legs and arms were too small...awesome chest, small waist...his taper reminds me of a bigger Brian Buchanan.

1991 Mr O interview backstage at the show

the only guys able to beat haney in sam "drug era": Arnold, Yates and maybe coleman without the gyno in his very best condition and a stomach not more bloated than 1999

your comparison of haney and buchanan makes me feel you don t have a clue about bodybuilding, as well as claiming all drug bodybuilders like nasser flex or dillet could play with the top of the top

Ronnie, Dorian, Flex, Kevin, Chris Cormier, would have steamrolled past Haney...Haney would have to get his legs bigger, his arms bigger, better back detail, and better conditioning...

Closeline, I said Haney's Taper--look at his taper, it's very reminscent of a larger version of Brian Buchanan...you need to look at them, look at the taper, furthermore, all bbers are all drugs...look at what happened to Haney at the "drug tested" Mr. O.

Then you know very little of bodybuilding, and of perspective, in general...

It's like saying that a Jaguar has little in common with the Lion or Tiger, and more in common with the leopard---due to it's coat, when in fact, it's DNA would show otherwise...

Haney had a huge chest, but an insane taper, I'd say better than Coleman's. This taper was of course not as dramatic as Buchanan, but it was "similar"...also, if you ever noticed, guys with insane tapers, tend to grow guts when they go over a certain weight. For Flex it was 230s-240, for Ronnie Coleman it was around 260, for Melvin it was 240-250.
This is one reason that has led me to believe that Haney couldn't have beaten Ronnie or Kevin...because Haney would have had to play catch up and add weight---and he was already lagging in legs and arms.

Arnold had that very rare characteristic of looking
extremely massive and powerful but also extremely aesthetic(flow) at the same
time. He may have had this trait more than any other
bodybuilder in history.
Kevin Levrone is another that had this trait that few did.
Wheeler was too light in the torso to have that massive
powerful look. Dorian and Ronnie didn't have the aesthetics and flow.

All these are from his 1973 version - my personal
favorite year. He was a bit more massive in 1974
but he was his most ripped and aesthetic in 1973
with close to the same mass as 1974.
Check out how deep his quads are separated.
Something you see less and less of now days with
the overgrown quads.
