To those who question Dorian besting Kevin in competition, Yates's physique never translated well, relatively speaking, in photographs.

In top shape, in the flesh, NO ONE from the era was as impressive as Dorian. I witnessed this first hand.

As well, I stood in front of him as he guest posed about one week after the '94 O, weighing around 285, and he was astounding. A freak in every way. He literally looked like granite.

Did you also witness Levrone in person in order to do a fair comparison ?

'98 NOC



He was officially larger and heavier than Ronnie at the 1998 NOC.

Levrone is one of the few that could pose on this song and get away with it. Even now:

Ironically, Levrone won't "come clean"

I bet that Vic could've been on that list too (if he didn't shy away from competing)

Original on the right sans sock, fyi.

Don't believe everything you read in FLEX.

Nothing like the sock! Wouldn't go out without it.  ;D

What did you think of his physique at the 94 Arnold Classic compared with what he brought to the table later that year at the Mr. O?

i thought he looked bigger, fuller, and just as hard at the 94 olympia

Funny you ask ... Without an inch of a lie, I saw Kevin guest pose at the exact same north Toronto gym location within a year of seeing Dorian.

(Saw Louie at this now-gone gym, as well.)

My first thought: Wow, he's not a large structured man.

His frame is slight. He carried a gigantic amount of muscle. He looked amazing.

But not in Dorian's league.

Just being honest.

Yep, Kevin has the Phil Heath affect.  Doesn't look that impressive in clothing compared to mass monsters but onstage his physique is amazing.

As some here know, I've seen, trained with , etc. some of the biggest and best from bodybuilding.

Put simply, when it's boiled down, Yates is the most inhuman physique I've ever seen.

There have been bigger (more drug bloated), more aesthetic, but ... Dorian was a true freak.

My fave Mr. O is Haney (whom I know), but for what-the-fuck factor, there's Yates. And Yates alone.

In his prime, he didn't appear to be flesh and blood. Just carved granite and modelled sinew.

No that was a textbook meltdown.  ;)


A " valid comparison "? what did it validate? your bias? I'll agree Kevin owns Dorian in that pose and?? If contests were judged on one pose then Kevin would be the winner. You also claimed Kevin had finally caught up in size to Dorian, if not surpassing him which isn't accurate in the least , bias allowed you to make that claim , so please don't be hypocritical in claiming anyone else is biased when you're guilty yourself.



Dude come on. Dorian won the show, he doesn't need you to defend him.  Kevin looks great in the comparison pic posted, if judges were fair and objective Kevin could have won. He didnt. But it doesn't mean he's not as good a bb as Dorian.

Stop sounding like you're personally invested in a 20 year old contest.
