Dorian Yates kicks Ronnie's ass Hulkster is a punk Bitch and fuck any truce

[suckmymuscle]

too bad we couldn't make dorian's arms grow..

  Dorian's forearms were bigger than Ronnie's, and his triceps were comparable in size to Ronnie 1999. The small - yes, small - advantage in arm size that Ronnie had in 1999 was all biceps. Dorian's arms were 21", around the same size as Ronnie's.

Levrone wins this one. He's the only one hitting the pose correctly.

[suckmymuscle]

  Again, we are talking about measurements here, and not how big the arms appear to be. Take into account that Dorian's joints are bigger than Ronnie's, making his arms appear smaller in comparison. If you got the tape measurer, you would find that Dorian's and Ronnie's arms were roughly the same size if we are talking about Ronnie 1999. Oh, and Dorian's forearms are still bigger and his triceps are still just as big as Ronnie's

Dorian said his arms barely scraped 20 inches in the offseason.
So really you're looking at 19-20 inches in contest shape......Its pretty obvious Ronnie had bigger arms, especially in a front double bicep

I have magazine articles of him stating that his arms measured 22" at 290lbs.

HA HA HA HA, then Ronnie's arms must be 26" in the offseason.

I don't really care about measurements, that's why I rarely talk about them unlike the rest of you nut-huggers. By the way, Coleman's arms look out of proportion in a lot of shots. Just take his side chest pose for example where his arms completely over power everything else.

[England_1]

Man, Coleman never had anything this good. Even in the offseason Yates' symmetry and proportion is just magnificent. This has never been exceeded. Oh, and Ronnie never had a Sandow necklace

I'll be the bigger man and say enough is enough , the board is sick of our ' debates ' obviously neither of us are going to convince each other of our opinions , and we've basically said everything we could , so I say lets end this debate out of respect for others , I say you and I stop directly comparing Ronnie & Dorian and leave well enough alone and let the board have a rest lol the ball is now in your court . 

Bump for the first post that started this thread!

[bodybuilder1234]

Thats BS, the magazine obviously exagerrated his measurements...

A witness was there when Dorian claimed they were 19-20, basically he said it due to Flex Wheeler's BS claim that he had 23 inch arms.

For what it's worth...

A friend of mine (credible guy, someone I would believe) met Dorian Yates at a seminar in Belfast just after the '93 Olympia. I don't have any verification of this story, but I'll tell it for what it's worth...

Yates was at his best ever, no tears... no injuries... and 295 lbs with a hint of abs.

They got to talking after the seminar... Yates mentioned that having overdieted in '92 he had been a little less drastic in '93 which resulted in him coming in some 15 lbs heavier. But that he had been contest ready nearly a month out from his second Mr O win and that next year ('94, not realising he'd be injured) he hoped to diet less and come in around 270 ripped.

My friend mentioned FLEX Wheeler's claim of a 23.5'' arm at 220 lbs in contest form... Yates laughed and replied that at 295 lbs off-season his arms only barely broke the 20'' mark (20.125'') when he finished a bicep workout. (Apparently Yates was very fastidious about measurements and records)

To add credence to that story, the Guinness Book of Records people measured Greg Valentino's synthol filled growths live on tv... the result: 24.5'' and 24'' does tha tally with Arnold having 23'' or 22'' arms?
If your arm actually measured more than 22'' you'd be able to touch your bicep peak with the index finger of that same arm.

Ronnie's arms were recorded in Korea in 2004..
They measured 21.7inches

[ANAL DISCHARGE]

All you imbeciles are as bad as each other and should be shot with assorted axes.  I noticed that this thread was down three or four pages yesterday, yet some sad, inbred individual saw fit to bring it back.

[England_1]

Ronnie's arms were recorded in Korea in 2004..

So Ronnie, in 2004, at Roughly 320 lbs had 21.7" arms. And you idiots claim Arnold had 22" arms hahah. Arnold's arms were lucky if they were 20" with the serious lack of tricep mass. So take Ronnie in his 98 or 99 form, weighing some 60 to 70 lbs less and it's likely his arms were somewhere in the 20-21" range. It looks like Sucky's original claim that Coleman's arms were no bigger (significantly) than Yates was true

no, he was in contest shape...around 300lbs

Serious lack of triceps size lol...You are officially one of the unwashed, illiterate BB masses. Both Schwarzenegger and Coleman had serious triceps size you idiot, as opposed to Yates who in relative terms had sharper cuts but not size-someone who comprehends anatomy can clearly see that none of them had everything. You just chose to fall for one of those myths the guillible have accepted over the years hahahahahaahahhaha OWNED

Schwarzenegger's arms were clearly around the same size as Oliva's, which was around 20.5 cold, around 22 pumped thus the 22 claim wasn't entirely fictional-and it didn't require him to be near-300 like joe weightlifter Yates.

So take Ronnie in his 98 or 99 form, weighing some 60 to 70 lbs less and it's likely his arms were somewhere in the 20-21" range. It looks like Sucky's original claim that Coleman's arms were no bigger (significantly) than Yates was true 

Whatever Coleman's arms were, they were as big or bigger than anything seen anywhere, and many inches bigger than your hero ever came close to, you pasty brit nationalist skinhead.

Hope this helps.

[Hulkster]

agreed.

despite what the nuthuggers want us to believe, the facts are that even when comparing 99 coleman and 93 yates at the same bodyweight, Ronnie's arms were NOTICABLY bigger than dorian's from every angle.

[Hulkster]

look at that. if you shaved off ronnie's tris and bis then you would be left with close to what dorian has.

ronnie's arms were almost as big as his head.

[Hulkster]

lol same size my ass.

[England_1]

Dorian's arms were 20.5". Coleman's were roughly 21" in 99. (.7" gained from 60lb weight gain as of 2004).

So half an inch difference. The difference between Coleman and Yates calves was more like 3-4" 

Yates had perfect balance and proportion.

Schwarzenegger was very flawed in comparison. Twig quads, twig forearms, and a lack of tricep mass. He even noted it himself. hahaha Pumpster OWNED

[England_1]

as opposed to Yates who in relative terms had sharper cuts but not size

Complete loss of any remaining credibility LOL. Saying Yates lacked size in ANYTHING is idiotic. He would have dwarfed Schwarzenegger - arms and all.

[Hulkster]

this is likely more than a half an inch:

esp. the left arm

[England_1]

Weren't you claiming 23" arms on Coleman this whole thread? .5-1" circumference is a significant difference, but it WILL NOT effect the outcome of the contest. When Jay and Ronnie were neck and neck in 2006 Ronnie had vastly superior non-synthol'd arms. He still lost.
