For every pic you can post showing Ronnie with no gut, there are ten showing him with a gut.
irrelevant, the issue here is whether Ronnie could control his gut. Pubes claimed that Ronnie never had a flat stomach. I posted shots disproving what he said. Furthermore, just b/c there are more pics of Ronnie with a gut doesn't mean that Dorian didn't have a distended midsection. It simply means that more pics were taken of Ronnie's stomach. Funny how more and more pics are surfacing of Dorian's gut once people figured out how to post screen caps.
Again, the real issue here is this: who's stomach was flatter? Dorian's. Combined with his superior abs/serratus separations, it makes his entire midsection better.
I agree that Dorian had a better midsection. Nobody has ever disputed that. However, you are wrong about Dorian's stomach being flatter. Please show me 1 pic where Dorian's midsection looks flatter than this. Hint: it cannot be done. You can only show me a pic where Dorian ties this, but does not surpass it.

What made me laugh the most was your claim that Dorian carried less lean muscle mass than the 2001 ASC Ronnie because his bones are thicker and his waist wider.Again, Black Men have heavier bones, and even if they didn't, 16 lbs of bone mass is a lot of extra bones!
I never said Dorian carried 16 lbs extra solely in bone mass. Nice strawman there, you dipshit. I claimed that Dorian carried most of the extra weight in his midsection. Both Ronnie and Dorian have guts, but Dorian also had a wider waist which greatly increases the total volume of his midsection.



Then you go on saying that Ronnie had more striations; I dared you to show me where "striations" are mentioned on any bodybuilding federation's judging booklet.
read the official IFBB judging criteria.

And the "lumpiness" correlating with thickness... yeah, that's probably why Flex had a lumpier back than Dorian: because his back was thicker!
I never said that Dorian didn't have a thick back. If you actually bothered to read my posts rather than try to respond in a hurry to make me look bad, you would notice that I said Dorian's back looks flat in the rear double biceps. It looks thick in other poses and when standing relaxed, but for some reason it flattens out when he hits that one pose.
