Ronnie-- always with the hate on Jay. Jay is a cool guy and I hope he proves Ronnie wrong.
Ronnie had the best physique but he sure spills some shit out of his mouth now and again.
Best is in the eye or the beholder. He won and he was a beast. But best? The modern era of body-building has been all about mass; who cares what the mass is... muscle, fat, malnourished Honduran slave children... mass is mass.
That is, in my opinion, dumb. You see someone like Ronnie or Rühl and what do they come across as? As people who cannot live a semblance of a normal life.
People who need the entire world's cotton production for a year and all the sequins manufactured in China in order to have an ill-fitting suit.
People whose organs are so hypertrophied that they could sustain a whole city block and seem to teeter on the edge of death.
People who can't do normal everyday things - tie shoe laces, fit in an airplane seat, walk a mile or just about any everyday normal human being activity.
Please tell me one way in which people like that differ from an obese man that carries the same weight when it comes to practical everyday life.
That's not to say that we should go back to the era of Steve Reeves or Arnold or Zane... but fuck, at least
they were functional human beings. Not useless three hundred pounds of muscle, feces and drugs that can barely breathe on their own.
