Suckmyasshole, you want a concise argument why 99 Ronnie would beat Dorian? here you go:
First, we have to look at why dorian won so much (this argument assumes all judging is fair, which we all know every single Mr. O has been given gifts, including ronnie and dorian).
He won because:
a) he was bigger than most of his opponents.
and
b) he had a great back, of which NONE of his larger opponents had.
Now, Dorian easily beat a prepubscent Ronnie for a whole number of reasons, such as:
-lack of conditioning on Ronnie's part
-lack of a lower body at all (ronnie didn't even really have decent quads until 99 to begin with)
-lack of width relative to his frame (look at mid 90's shots of Ronnie compared to 99 - he looked odd until his frame filled out with muscle)
-lack of exposure on ronnie's part
Now, look at 99 Ronnie:
1. he had a back that surpassed dorian's even if only slightly.
2. He was the same size
3. He was just as wide
4. but had a much smaller waist and more dramatic taper.
5. He had much better detail from the front.
Mandatories:
front double bi - ronnie easily.
side chest - Ronnie easily - look at the side chest shots from 99. Dorian doesn't come close.
most muscular - see above
Side tri - dorian- even though his tris lack striations, they look better in this pose than ronnie's.
Back double bi - Ronnie - dorian wins from the knees on down..
Makes dorian's back look paper thin and armless..
Rear lat spread - Ronnie easily - look at the width and taper. Hell, the dorian fans are even claiming that the shots are 'stretched'
when in reality, that is what a lat spread looks like when you have the lats of dorian with the waist of someone like Flex: you get Ronnie.
Ab and thigh: dorian - even though his thighs are piss poor compared to 99 Ronnie's, his abs are way better than Ronnie's alien abs.
Front Lat Spread: Dorian, even though he has no cuts in sight in this pose, his lats look a lot better from the front.
Ronnie wins the mantatories: 5 to 3.
Relaxed Round:
Front relaxed: ronnie by a landslide - way better taper, cuts. dorian looks like well, twigs on a barrel (with a keg stomach in 93) in this pose.
Side shots: even. no advantage either way here.
Back relaxed: ronnie easily - equal width, more dramatic taper. way way better glutes and hams. dorian has better calves. thats it.
So, for rounds one and two, its Ronnie.
Posing Round : even. both of these guys would receive a perfect score in this round like they always do if they are in shape.
Conclusion: Ronnie 99 wins, based on the merits of his physique.
