ALL of you have left out the worst travesty in BB history.!
Arnold winning the 1980 Mr. O, it was a completely rigged competition to help Arnie promote some movie he was doing. I mean I know he's untouchable to some of you but how in the hell could you have missed that one? Roy Calendar should have won that show but that's how the IFBB rolls.

second shittiest decision.....Zane Beating Robby Robinson for the 77 Mr. O
yes I'm old.

This pic makes it clear that, that Jay, has matched Ronnie in mass. If he gets his conditioning right, he might win the O. He also need to increase his separation and muscle sweep, though.

Jay will never have a ripped arms like Ronnie.. It's about genetics. You can see a ripped tricep muscle on Ronnie's arm while doing a front double bicep pose.

Wheres ND now that some god awful pics of yates have been posted?

IceCold · « **Reply #79 on:** January 03, 2006, 09:00:59 AM »

94 was clearly, yates' worst year. but once ALL angles are considered, he is still the winner.

shawn weighs 205 and will not beat 260-65 lbs Yates.

it is a tough call, but shawn is so damn small compared to Yates.

another thing to consider, it has been widely documented (peter mcgough, greg merritt, jeff o'connel) that Dorian looks better in person, while shawn looks better in photos than in real life. perhaps that can explain why the reason dorian won.

also, the old saying "you have to ko the champ to win". shawn may have beaten dorian, but he didnt ko him and hence dorian wins in 94.

give the guy a break. he tore his bicep 9 weeks before stepping onstage. he could barely train. EVERYONE else would have skipped the show.

I believe if Dexter Jackson was 6ft tall, he would be Mr.O, many ,many times.

Man hulkster that is one great pic of both Jay and Ronnie for some reason it really shows both guys muscularity well.
Where is the pic from? Howard

that pic is from the 2003 Mr. Olympia

Dorian was quite possibly the most overrated Mr. Olympia ever. From the rear he was the clear winner as well as from the side, but from the front he wasn't even close to some of the guys on stage - even some who were out of the top five.

exactly. Dorian was the Supreme Ruler of All Overratedness!

severe lack of detail in the arms and legs. this killed Dorian from the front when you factor in his lack of good taper.

Dorian was good, but overrated.

Game, set & match..who won again?

Almost on par with Robinson never winning.

Yeah, ok. My point, though, that Jay has matched Ronnie for latissimus and quad size. What he doesen't have is enough separation and detail. Oh, he also has to improve his dryness, on contest day.

Ronnie should only have won the 98 and 99 Os. From there, he only went downhill.

Agreed, when Ronnie first won the Olympia, he blew Wheeler out of the building, it was an obvious victory. He had the flat stomach, the flowing lines, and the defined quads that did not look like the giant bloated balloons of today. He was amazing. But, after that, he began to throw on size and wieght all over his body with seemingly no regard to his lines and proportion. He looks almost nothing like what he did 7 years ago. And Cutler should have beat him in 2001, Ronnie was out of shape, holding water and bloated, Jay was on point that night, period.

I like the challenge round! I think it's fun to watch if they get the damn show run smoothly with no mess ups coming from the judges scoring! Also important to take away from the challenege round is who is judging: the past mr.olympias. And that is why Ronnie lost.

fathead · « **Reply #91 on:** January 04, 2006, 02:24:18 AM »

Made no sense......... I just saw the dvd. They had this tie breaker "posedown" where Ronnie killed in every shot (f**k it give Gustavo the side tri and ab shot to be fair). It was so clear Ronnie won but they gave it to Gustavo.

So.....the guy who ends up in 3rd beats the 1st place guy(and 2nd place guy before that) in a posedown where they pretty much hit every mandatory pose. Gustavo didn't even get a comparison with Ronnie or Jay in the prejudging. Then they give him the "head to head" comparison round?

?? WTF?

?? Might I add that it was a very very short posedown.

This is starting to turn into the WWE. They even had Triple H doing commentary for Christs sake. I had Gustavo in 2nd place overall in the show. But Ronnie was clearly the better bodybuilder. What are they gone do next year flip a coin to break the tie?

As for it being "fun to watch"...........dude it was a waste of time. They could of used that time to let the 6 guys who didn't make the top 15 do their posing routines. It was 4 of guys first and maybe only Olympia and they didn't even let them have their moment in the spotlight. They all qualified to be on that stage like everyone else. They should be given some respect.

I could rant about this for days. I'll leave it at that.

Most ludicrous judging decision ever in BB?

How about the winner for the past 8 years???

Ronnie health will fail soon. He'll be dead before 50

Even if true, that would apply to any multiple-Olympia winner. Hello?

Guess what-Ron still dominated this year, despite any differences with '98. What cave have you been inhabiting-look at the video, not pics.

Gotta go with Yates win over Naz in 97. Naz has never gotton over being beaten by a guy with 1 tricep. His back was also Olympic quality that year. It seemed to just take all the wind out of him.

Scimowser · « **Reply #97 on:** January 04, 2006, 07:18:15 AM »

you mean olympia quality? Nasser was awesome from the front but that was all. Yates was just as good with the exception of the muscle tears which were inflaming throughout the show, but destroyed him from the back. Nasser never had what it takes to be number 1

Didn't Nasser win the Arnold Classic the year after that? He also got 3rd at the 98 Olympia and was in the top 6 2 or 3 more times. Seems like he had some wind left in him.
