Tony Pearson had a hell of a V taper. probably just behind Buchanan or Nubret. That pic doesn't really do it justice.

I know, right? The poll was/is incomplete...surely the posters at MD wouldn't miss those two.

Peter is one of the most gifted white BBers.

That's a serious flaw, plus his straight quad sweep, but what if you compare him with today's generation, like Jay, Branch, Dennis, Evan, Kuclo, etc?

He has better muscles---it just looks like he 's plastic man and someone pulled him. Very long torso/waist. Just like Brian Buchanan looks like someone pinched his waist or morphed the photo.

LOL, you're right, esp with that thin neck. Brian has that long torso as well, just like Lee Priest, but both of them have lower lat insertions than Peter.

When these two guys entered the scene full force in 1991 (along with Levrone), they brought a good blend of wide shoulders/small waistline.

I think Lee Haney and Mike Christian had that type of look too.

Out of all of the guys that I mentioned, Haney had the best Lats

Post by: yates fan on August 26, 2013, 10:55:21 AM: haney probably had the best taper,with the fact he had very small waist and very wide lats and delts and his lats weren't high.
