Flex WHEELER before '98 Arnold

[Hulkster]

as good as the 93 flex was, his lack of sweeping lats will always hurt him against Ronnie. post 93 it seemed it was synthol central with Flex

[Iceman1981]

Flex was NEVER anywhere near as shredded as Ronnie downstairs. Maybe his genetic kidney condition made it difficult to dry out?

It could be, who really knows. Also, Ronnie would be too big for a 1998 AC Flex.

Here is a rare pic of Flex at the 1998 AC Prejudging. Great back as always, but from the waist down from behind is where Flex comes second best to Ronnie.

Great lines on Flex, but Ronnie was simply a  superior bodybuilder


wosshhhh

Mind you 1998 Mr Olympia was a very close contest , and Flex has beaten Ronnie multiple times before. I doubt he would but you never know.

Flex was never close to Ronnie

[Danimal77]

Maybe i'm in the minority, but outside of how he looked in 93, just not a fan of his physique.

You're not in the minority. He NEVER replicated his 1993 look.

[Danimal77]

I agree

93 was one of the best physiques ever but he was so inconsistent imo, oil everywhere very noticeable in arms and delts, in ways his later yrs were very overrated

Yet 1993 Flex couldn't beat 1993 Dorian.

[Ronnie Rep]

Flex said if he replicated his 98 Arnold condition he would have beaten Ronnie 1998 Olympia , I doubt it

It would made the judges job a lot harder. My opinion it could have gone either way.
