Dorian Yates says he would beat Arnold in a contest

[ritch]

Almost any Mr O of say 20 years following another past champion could say what Dorian said.

Not sure I like Dorian as he's a true racist it seems. Not the way we do it on the boards to provoke and joke around, but real life racist.

Not so sure about that dude...

[Pet shop boys]

Imagine this combo

Arnold's Pecs
Dorian's Back
Arnold's Upper Arms
Dorian's Forearms
Arnold's midsection
Dorian's Legs
Toss up on Shoulders

In other words; Arnold with access to 90's chemicals   


WoSH

Yates pre heavy slin & gh.... More than a match for anyone

He looks good here but was 228lbs. and lost to Momo.

[local hero]

Yeh at his 1st pro show, after around 5 yrs training... Arnie lost to Zane in his 1st did he not?

Regarding the waist, yates pre gh/slin  kills him in waist and taper, armies waist from the front  was quite wide, altho he did hit a good vacuum... He did lots of twisting shots because I this..

I don't think Dorian is racist.   Not at all. Just because of his controversial opinion about the Holocaust which is a controversial subject because of what is being passed off as fact is not fact. Those numbers are no where near what was reported.  Western A Civilization has been victims of a mass propaganda campaign and the fact prove it. It has done through the Rothchilds. Anyway Dorian hangs with real Hebrews all the time. I don't know his opinion on Edomites aka Jewish people.

That's badass. I'mo, Dorian at the same weight of Arnold crushed Arnold on the extreme conditioning. Dorian will always crush Arnold on conditioning.

Peak arnold trumps dorian imo, balanced, bigger and better arms, whole body flows better and looked good from all angles, midsection much shallower and lighter but with thicker and bigger chest, arnolds bdb was sick, like a roadmap back there, he never hit the lat spread properly but width was impressive. Dorian takes him on ham and glutes definition but both had the longer leg look but arnolds cuts were better, dorians looked blobby

Some of these early 90's pics of Dorian are exceptional

That version of Dorian would destroy Arnold.

But, as said, comparing the eras is difficult, because nobody really knows what would happen if modern methods were applied to the old school, and vice versa.

We're talking about bodybuilding here.  What does race/racism have to do with it?  People will never get far in life with a victim mentality.

[SuperTed]

Dorian seems to be big on conspiracy theories these days, some of which are popular with groups associated with the far right.
I don't think he's a racist though. Not to any extreme level at least.

At the same age(28) Arnold was already retired undefeated with the record of 6 x mr.Olympia.He lost to Zane when he was still a kid.

[local hero]

He was a pro when he lost to Zane, likewise as he lost to Sergio...

He started competing in his teens, yates didn't start till his early 20's...

Anything else cupcake ?

He was a pro in NABBA which had slightly different criteria than IFBB(NABBA accentuated more on size while IFBB on conditioning).The only pro IFBB contest at the time was Mr.Olympia therefore his IFBB pro debut and only loss was at the 1969 Mr.Olympia when he lost to Sergio at the age of 22.After that he was undefeated.

Smaller waist yes but not better taper, Arnold had an amazing flowing taper with great lats insertions... Yates was also narrower, Arnold had larger clavicles, and a wider waist, but very tight and looked right on him...

Your not trying to compare backs are you.... Arnold had him on pecs and biceps, end of discussion.

I just had to highlight this to show your poor bodybuilding knowledge...

Absolutely not, just responded on what you said regarding waist and taper... Yes, arms and pecs go to Arnold, structure too, not much else... But apples and oranges, different times...

So Arnold didn't have wider clavicles? Are you serious?

[NarcissisticDeity]

You could only really tell if they were side-by-side and their bests

Arnold has a generally bigger frame:taller,wider hips,wider clavicles and bigger rib cage.

[Al Doggity]

They're completely different eras. How can you even judge? They trained to appeal to different judging standard. Even if that wasn't the case, it barely makes sense to compare guys competing during the same era. You can find pics of Paul Dillet that look way better than Dorian, but Paul was never a threat for the title.

Not for nothin,someone said it a little earlier in the thread, but once Dorian bf% rose above 7% he looked like a sack of shit. And those were the good years.

Exactly...

Sure... Arnold had wider clavicles and bigger rib cage, Yates was not narrow of course, lol, just compared to Arnold, in my honest opinion...

[TuHolmes]

You can't.

It's a stupid thing for Dorian to say and he knows it.

That's is just insane. He look like one of those bulls with a myostatyn deficiency
