when they are in shape, both Flex and Ronnie easily beat Chris, for many reasons.
Chris was good. Read: not spectacular.
Yet another ND factoid that no one but him agrees with.
He had no weak points.
but he had no real strong points either.
He had the Porter Cotrell syndrome: no real flaws, no real weakness.
Doesn't stand out as a result. Nothing truly outstanding.
Therefore, does well at the smaller shows, never wins the big ones.
I think Chris is great, but facts are facts.
He was almost too well balanced: you need to have that "wow" factor when you pose to impress the judges.
Chris did not really have that. As a result, it stopped him from winning the major shows.
Again having strong bodyparts CAN BE A WEAKNESS when their purpose showcases the weaker ones , WoW Ronnie has the best quads they highlight his pathetic calves , WoW Ronnie's hams are shredded and his glutes stick out and are overdeveloped , WoW Ronnie biceps/triceps are HUMONGOUS and his forearms in relation are NOT , you're not that sophistocated you think he has great balance lol so you gloss right over this , the judges don't
And Chris didn't really have any weak points and this
IN ITSELF IS ONE BIG STRONGPOINT Chris' main problem is conditioning , he was like a heavy Bob Paris and like Paris his conditioning wasn't on par with the best and if it was , Coleman would have been left for dead , if someone were to create the perfect base for bodybuilding it would be Cormier NOT Coleman
Cormier was his own biggest enemy and Yates said under the right set of circumstances he would murder Coleman its painfully obvious to those of us in the know this is true , why? he has everything that the judges look for , muscular bulk , density , balance & proportion , lack of weaknesses , looks great in almost every mandatory , couple that with aesthetics and all you would need his extreme conditioning and he would be untouchable , you would know this if you had a grasp of competitive bodybuilding , but you're the one who thinks Dorian is the most overrated bodybuilder of all time , and the judges are looking for the best x-frame and Ronnie dominated Jay from the back in 2001 despite losing the whole prejudging
Kid you can't handle my grasp of competitive bodybuilding , go back and learn a few things before you present me with garbage.
