other than his abs (which were great) Yates never had much detail at all from the front.against the small-by-comparison Shawn and Flex, this didn't matter.but against a ripped and full 257 pound Ronnie, it would be the kiss of death for Yates' victory bid.
In Yates' last Olympia Coleman placed 9th and Yates wasn't even at his best in 97. LOL
and your point is?the Ronnie coleman that showed up onstage in 97 was nothing like the Ronnie that showed up onstage in 99...
Let's face it after 97 the competition was so shit that the 98 Olympia could've been won by any of the 97 top 10 finishers. They chose Coleman over everyone else because A. he was a complete outsider and B. He was the most improved bodybuilder not necessarily the best. 'Nuff said.
but dorian would NOT have won either the 98 or 99 Olympia's looking like he did in either 96 or 97...
in the above poses it is a disgrace that he won. small, un symmetrical and looks smooth as huggie bear in starsky and hutch.
Not as smooth as Coleman's legs in this 99 shot.
you think coleman's legs in 99 were smooth?
Not as thick or as detailed as these legs:
thats not his legs. thats his inner thigh.dorian seldom posed his quads from the front.why?because he knew like we all know that they were mediocre.
LOL you make the argument about dorian 96 and than compared dorian 95 to Ronnie 2000...
dorians arms, quads, delts and chest look like play dough next to a peak coleman. throw in glutes and hams too since they do. i dont see the argument for dorians conditioning, he was hard, is that it? theres more to being in condition then being hard.i dont think flat muscle is rewarded, full round muscle bellies are, another advantage to coleman.
How can they say yates had better hams and glutes? lol.
Thats not his legs ? seems like you need an anatomy lession because you can clearly see his calves ( something Ronnie is missing ) his Vatus medialis , Lateralis , Satorius , Tensor fasciae latae , and the rectus femoris , maybe thats why you claim Dorian has shitty quads because you don't know what you're looking for , then again you're just an internet-fan-boy
