what you fail to realize is that what you claim is simply 'my' preference is not actually my preference at all.
its the preference of the entire bb community.
it is the way the sport is judged, by fans, industry insiders, judges and contest reporters.
its the way the sport works
is why so few people feel dorian was better than ronnie.
sorry, but nice try.
For startrs, this is not true. There are polls where Dorian is beating Ronnie as to who is the greatest ever. Secondly, even if this were true, it woldn't mean shit. Why? Because the "bodybuilding community" doesen't judge contests, you fucking moron.
The only way to decide who wins in a hypothetical battle between Dorian and Ronnie both at their bests would be to pitch them in a sanctioned contest from a bodybuilding federation. Each and every single bodybuilding contest ever was judged by a small panel of judges that follow rules, and not by popular vote. This is not American Idol, or America's Next Top Model. Since the I.F.B.B is the World's most important bodybuilding federation, and since both men won that federation's premiere title, then it is appropriate for our hypothetical matchup between both at their bests to be held according to the criteria used tom judge competitors at the Mr.Olympia.
And you are lying through your teeth when you claim that judges have said that Ronnie at his best wod beat Dorian at his best. Where has an I.F.B.B judge said that? The only I.F.B.B Pro Division judge that has spoken especifically on the Dorian vs Ronnie debate has been Dorian himself, and he said that it would be very close because Ronnie would be carrying 15 lbs of lean mass more but he would have superior symmetry and conditioning. Dorian finally said that it "would be up to the judges". So once again, we are back to square zero.
