Dave would want nothing to do with TA/Sarcasm. He is humble and soft spoken and very nice and polite. He is well respected by everyone in bodybuilding and Santa Cruz and it does him a dis-service to compare TA to him. Shame on you JaeJonna. And obviously, his physique is far superior to TA's.
And as for Frank Zane, TA is not anywhere near him in any aspect. His physique has a flow, symmetry and aesthetic appeal that TA will never have because of his structure. For all of TA's reverence of the Ironagers, he seems to have never learned anything about what made them great. They weren't great because they told everyone that they were great. They were great because when you looked at them or talked to them you couldn't help but see it. Ta is exactly the opposite. He is a loudmouth bully. Arnold was that way, but his arrogance was justified, and even then, a lot of it was head games. The Mr. GetBig showed TA's true colors. His body will never be on par with the legends he reveres, and sadly for him it seems neither will his personality.
