Ronnie again.  I'm really impressed with Victor, he should be third behind Jay, IMO.

Dexters detail in the back relaxed is unbelievable.    Hes holding his own with guys 50lbs heaviar.

Colemans still too overwhelming to deny, tho.

Jay looks good

but ronnie is still dominant

dexter has the best shape and symetry by a mile

jay might get it....on a slim chance



not bad working all year for a gaurenteed 60k though *shrug*

but ron is the champ for a reason..and he shows why once again.

If you look closely, you can see Dex's spinal erector's run right up his freaking back like blocks of wood!

Coleman is undeniable from the front. From the back, he IS beatable.

Same judges, same results.  They need to inject some new blood to keep the game interesting.  If not it's Ronnie, Jay, Dex and then the real "contest" begins.  4-8.?

Really looking foward to see the placings of JJ, Toney Freeman, Gunter and Branch.

You went to the trouble of putting that comparison up and then you post a completely different pose for Ronnie?

Front double bi - For a change, Cutler. It's too close to call!
Front lat - Ron
Side chest - Ron
MM - Ron
Back lat - Jay!!!
Back double bi - Jay

3 each. Victor's back almost pipped Jay on that last one.

nope..

Side Tricep - Jay
Abs and Thigh - Jay

So Jay wins

ronnie looks very good for 43 years of age.

good enough to win fairly

awesome :D

Post by: natural al on September 30, 2006, 07:57:26 AM

ronnie doesn't look as good as he has in the past.  Front double bi is still a killer but the rest of his poses are not as god in my opinion.  BDB looks weak to me compared to jay. Jay is harder but his waist is bigger, looks like you could bounce a quarter off of jay, he looks dry and hard.  Dex looks good but...and I hate saying this...small.  Vic looks good but his obliques look really big in some pics.  Ronnie looks "puffy" to me.  Front lat sperad looks like an abomination to me.  He still looks outrageous but is he meeting all the criteria to win an olympia??  I don't know, tri's look weak, lat looks torn, back is soft n the BDB, hams and glutes have been better...maybe I'm being to critical but I don't think he shoudl win this year.  I don't know if jay should win either with his waste so big but look at his condition......

I think jay is destroying ron from the back, harder, more detailed, calves are better...I didn't go nuts looking at the pics but those are my initial reactions....ron's front lat spread is....wellllll..it's just wrong.  Is he hitting it wrong or is it just me.  I can't tell a thing about his lats when he hit it, chest looks awsome but it's not being done in a way that you could eveluate him the right way...

the background and lighting are way too dark.

thats why you can't see his lats at all :(

why can't contest producers get the lighting and backgrounds right?

(http://www.bodybuildingpro.com/1999britishgrandprix/47.jpg)
if they are going to have a black background, the lighting needs to be WAY brighter

lighting might be off, like I said I jsut glanced at the pics but if the lighting was better wouldn't jay look better along with Ron?  I honestly think ron shouldn't win this one.

Jay looks like he may win this pose (according to the pic). Maybe it didnt apear that way in person. A couple years ago nobody was remotely close to Ronnie's rear double bi.

yeah ronnie defenitely not his best but jay isnt either...maybe we have a crzy upset and  vic wins and dexter is 2nd....oops is that my alarm, i think i just woke up....yeah ronnie wins, then jay, vic, dex

I think Vic surprised a lot of people this year. Great job! Looks best since the NOC. I hope to see him 2nd! Who will be 1st??? Hmmm, don't see much improvement in either Ronster or Jay but considering the two comparisons side by side, I'd still say Ronnie would get it before Jay does...
Yeah, what a disappointment with Gustavo, Warren and Gunter.

I'd hope to see Toney in 7 and Dex in the top 5

He is close but I would put him 3th after Vic. Both have great looking physiques but Vic beats him size wise while still maintaining V-taper X-frame

If you just look at the way they are shuffling these guys around. (Bare with me) You might perhaps think that this is Jays show to lose.  It seems off the comparisions with the top 4 they are moving these guys around to compare with Cutler.  Usually the bands circle around Coleman or whoever the top guy is in show.  IMO of course

Let s be honest, Ronnie Coleman s era is just ending,
and considering he is 43, it s a good and a necessary
thing to happen.

Deal with it.  Ronnie looks like shit from the back.   :'(
I love him, but unless he pulls flags out of his ass, ITS OVER.  You could light that stage up with a million fucking lights and it would just show how much his back has deteriorated over the last two years.  Jay was close to him last year from the back.

One thing for Dex---in the standing relaxed back shot---he looks the best of the four---not the biggest , but perfect balance along with good size for his height-----also, Dex has an incredible set of arms that dont seem to get enough credit !!!
