First Mr.O ever to win without any arms.

Zane, Franco, Haney, and Dickerson weren't exactly known for good arms, either.

why no pics of manfred hoeberl, for the time when his pics came out, since he was one of the first to use synthol, his pics were deemed freaky for the early 90s for the masses who didnt know what was going on

not trying to add to the fire, but ronnie does have more "wow" pictures than dorian does

Yea man - Yates was unreal @ that point in time - then Ronnie came along and raised the bar.  and kept raising it.  We will not see it duplicated.

You have to really respect Yates - he pushed his genetic limit to the end - tearing muscles to get there.  His body could go no further.   Gonnie just got dealy more in the genetic deck of cards and used them all also - pushed it to the limit..

this is what pro bodybuilding is good for, imo... not stage pics (for the most part)

pure illusion, pure freak factor
