Yes. Yes he did.

Hmm so I gues those pics I posted must. Be some kind of mirage or illusion
Some of those wins given to Dorian were atrocious .... The pics the comparisons don't lie....
Pure fanboyism on this thread ...

Photos are just one single millisecond of a contest. You can throw up desirable photos of Nasser owning Ronnie in 98 or Dana Lynn Bailey owning Cedric McMillan the other week at an expo. Watch the videos or see them for real and you begin to see how they look in relation to one another whilst opening up and moving around the stage etc. Just like how people will post photos of Phil on his own and say he is narrow, but ignore the fact that when you watch the last Olympia he was give or take a couple of inches the same width as Jay.

Photo's say a lot when there is consistency, we are not talking about isolated cases here.

Dana Lynn Bailey owning Cedric? Not sure if serious?

Jay is far wider than Phil.

You are missing the point. What I am saying is that depending on the angle you are trying to spin on something, the easier it will be to find. I can go right now and probably find photos where Phil looks just as wide as Jay depending on the angle and other variables. Point is, people latch on to one aspect ignoring others and use that to debunk the whole contest. I will readily admit by 97 Dorian's arms (particularly in the FDB) pale in comparison to the rest of his physique/former years.

Pictures always downplay conditioning. "You had to be there" might sound like a cop out but it's true. Unless someone took 100 megapixel pictures of those guys.

Other than the front double biceps pose, no one was even close.

I for one am glad someone has had the guts to finally tackle this topic. I often wonder why GB never talks about this. Huzzah!

Also, I'm wondering if it's time yet for the annual Jeff King thread.

Hasn't been discussed enough, I agree.

We need a thread on yates vs ronnie vs nasser - who would win at their best

Donny · « **Reply #39 on:** August 28, 2012, 06:59:36 AM »

Dorian yates is hardcore .... not a lot of guys would keep up with him in his prime.

I'm not sure what the dillett pic is supposed to prove. Everyone knows paul was a freak, and dwarfed many, looked insanely inhuman, but it doesn't mean anything on stage.
Dillet couldn't pose. At all
Dillet had a very poor back, accentuated by huge delts
Dillet did not have dorians conditioning, and if he had, he wouldn't be able to display it
And I liked dillet, like everyone else(no homo), but its fact

Nasser wasn't good enough, except ab/thigh

At the time neither was ronnie

Nor kevin, especially from behind

Nor ray, size

Nor labrada, size

Etc

And if you actually look at the pic, he is more or less matching Dillett in width and size. Look at the legs etc.

yates was that good before his biceps blow out . but its also a boost for HIT . IN A WAY DORIAN TRAINED A BIT MENTZER STYLE .. BUT THE ONLY MR O who did it it seems .

Its true, natural clavicle width, quads, calves, chest

But dillet's delts & arms! Unfookingbelievable!
Unfortunately takes more than that, you need more than just show muscles from certain angles. Otherwise strydom wouldve been Mr O, along with mike christian and nasser

In the BDB posted for favorable nasser comparison, yates is at a bad angle, not in pose yet, and nasser still looks mostly all delts (oil filled delts)

Its a fluke. Like when in some pics boyer coe has visible abs
