Dorian Yates - Picture Gallery - Discussion

[Nether Animal]

With the exception of the clasped most muscular pose, name one pose Levrone beats Dorian in.

Side chest...

Side chest...

Debatable because they hit the pose differently, though I'd give it to Yates.

Conditioning counts in this pose too.  Yates wins.

He does look etched from stone compared to the other two.

[Eric2]

Yates is very granite in those shots. Every one else is good but look smooth and three to four weeks late one their conditioning.

yates 100% he was the champ

Chuck Norris Fact should be changed into Dorian Yates Facts.

He's the most bad-ass mr O of them all.

I'm not counting Arnold. Arnold is just in another league, where better or worse doesn't apply.

Arnold and Dorian. That's what mr Olympia is about.....

Earl, you wouldn't happen to be Kevin Levrone, would you?

[Simple Simon]

Always liked & rated Kev's physique
an all time great.

Sadly though he was not able to beat Dorian

Dorian - doesn't come across that great in pics most of the time
See him on stage in real life is a totally different story.

Dorian = Man
Rest    = Boys

It certainly changed my view / opinion of him.
And clearly the judges saw it the same way.
 

[FREAKgeek]

It's a shame Dorian didn't compete another year and face what Ronnie put together. I know he was plagued with injuries but otherwise it would've been interesting.

On the 94 gp tour after correcting his color, still throwing up/ not holding down food and tightening up yates improved his condition and in this pic he's wider than kev who is flexed out and yates is in process of lat spread. Mr 0 2016 right there

not enough Cybergenics and vodka for Kevin, I guess...

[nukkaready]

Arms, huge and full pre-tear in '93.

[delta9mda]

1993 balance proportion condition hardness etc. Let's get real, unbeatable

No way.

Good pic, and shows why he won so many times. Dorian had a different kind of muscle/conditioning. Only 97 was close because of the injuries.

[delta9mda]

97 the only pose yates doesn't take is the front double biceps.

Hahaha look how small Shawn was

another thing every dorian fan says

amazing how the "best ever" can look so unimpressive and flawed in pics but other guys that were "inferior" don't have the same problem

like i said he's flawless from the back, all i see is flaws from the front

Sorry earl, I'm one of those shoulda seen him live people. Saw yates in 91 and 95 olympias and that's how it was. In pix it's one thing but live yates exploded in 3d, something pix just don't convey. Kev is a favorite too but really just no contest. Kev even said you (he) couldn't beat dorian because of his will power. Kev was awesome and could have an o or two except there was an English beast in the way.
