how many times are we going to do this topic in a thread i must be stuck in ground hog day.
Everyone's still Blinded bye Coleman's size "factor" which apparently would "blow"... Yates away...Lol...Transportin g a off-season 312lbs Coleman in 2005 back to the Year 1993 to Blow away little 270lb-odd Yates with the same NEUTRAL LIGHTING, with the SAME BACKGROUND and with a Slightly shopped waist for the "Bigger guy"....Hmmmmm yip good call on the Size difference outrageous "Size" and Genetics alone would not Defeat a Condition Freak like Yates IMO, size DOESN'T mean Sweet fuck all UNLESS ALL THAT SIZE is Conditioned and BALANCED from head to toe... not just from the Knees on up.
people always talk about ronnie's size giving him the advantage over dorian, but I disagree completely.it wasn't his size.it was the quality and shape/taper that gives him the advantage.hell, at only 247 pounds, he looked like this, which would blow away dorian's heavier, bulkier 260 pound best:
Are you sure Ronnie was 312lbs in that pic?
better comparison
Well no its not why? simple the lighting is TOTALLY different in the Coleman picture and Yates in the 93 pictures is NOT THERE in that same lighting in that same gym however GRANTED absolutley he is in alot better Shape, massive separated etc etc...and il bet hes Less than the 312lbs in the other comparison, point being his size "advantage" would not imo be squat against Yates.
lol, what are you smoking? The comparison I made is better in every way than the one you posted.- both images in my comparison are unaltered. The one you posted of Ronnie is grayscale even though the original has color- I didn't crop out anyone. Ronnie is cropped in yours. You can tell b/c the edges on Ronnie are all lumpy and distorted- their heights are more accurately reflected in my comparison. Ronnie is shorter in yours despite being an inch taller in person- your comparison has a smaller file size thus the image is pixelated and has worse resolution
This is two years before Ronnie started to step it up a notch or ten.
NO not 100% on that, other pics and other forum suggested that Figure so its anyone's guess.
No not Smoking nothing, i call it as i see it, Yes we all know the pic of Ron is Cropped etc etc etc, and while you say the one you have posted isnt touched it isnt exactly a Picture is it, its a somewhat Distorted screen cap...whatever you are "right" or i am "wrong", point i was trying to point out was size wouldn't be the final result against those 2 @ their bests on the day in a actual bbing COMPETITION...Total all round Condition and who had the better ALL ROUND balance on THE DAY would be imo.
Actually, that pic is from 2002 (dated in below pic) and I don't think Ronnie is 312lbs in that pic. I'll look around and see if I can find out how much he weighs in that pic.
good comparison here:although, as always, its not close. ronnie 'blows him away' lol its funny how yates has always maintained his 95 (post tear) form was his best ever, because he was at his hardest, but man, that left arm is fucked
I'm calling it as I see it too. Ronnie has more muscular bulk, better separations and striations, symmetry, fullness, and shape than Dorian. I give Dorian conditioning and balance depending on which version you prefer.
Well there you are thats 2002 not 2005, and bye the looks of that picture he Def looks 300plus pounds.
