exactly !!!haney beat dorian fair n square in their only encounter .. even though haney was the seasoned champion and dorian was the rookie .. there is no way you can say dorian was better than haney .. even if he did beat haney in the muscularity round and ab n thigh comparison .however dorian ala 93 would have smoked haney in an instant.same with coleman/dorian.. and the endless BS we have to put up with with their warrin fans .... dorian smoked coleman on so many occassions .. so how you can say coleman is better than dorian is laughable.
Haney was only 32 when he retired, this should also be considered.Dorian could always beat him on arms (forearms,bis,tris,branchii and all that), calves, hams, neck...As in the song, times are changin', Lee couldn't touch Dorian after '93...

Ronnie is better than Dorian because he looked better at his best and he has more Sandows and a better career. Sorry
dorian smoked coleman on so many occassions .. so how you can say coleman is better than dorian is laughable.
lol, brutal counter logic.
the next mrO will smoke ronnie for shape n size... so what point are we tryin to make here?ronnie has feeble competition compared to the pressure cooker of the 90s ...whos the better sprinter ..carl lewis or justine gatlin?? gatlin runs faster in another era .. but who had the better career ? these arguments.. when you actually step away and look at what we post, the arguments we make are totally pointless.you can only be the best of your era .... and ronnie was part of dorians era when yates was handin him his ass routinely.what makes dorian's reign so remarkable is he created genuine excitement in his rookie olympia and went head to head with the incumbant champ of longstandin. ronnie was f'uckin useless at his early mr O's and only had to fend off wheeler to get his mitts on the prize.i still prefer haney over dorian though .. cuz im notalgiac for 80s bodybuildin ... but i defo pick yates over coleman anytime .. nationalistic bias aside.
Ronnie should be praised for improving so much, not criticized. If you want to talk about who was better in his prime, I would say it was pretty close. Dorian came and strong and never placed lower than second. Ronnie had to wait years for success, but has had the longer career. USA is going to kick England's butt in the World Cup
Dorian has better arms... . Please, why don't you get a clue. Dorian has shit for arms and a huge gut. Compared to Ronnie, that is not a huge strike, but against Haney that is ludicrous. Haney smokes Dorian in every sense of the word. He has better shaped arms (one armed wonder Yates), a much better chest, equal back if not thicker especially in 1991 compared to Yates. His abs kill Yates; anybody ever heard about taper. Haney had it; Ronnie had it and still does to some extent; Yates does not have it especially near the end of his career. Yates might have won the 1993 Mr. Olympia but that was it. Only ND would think that Yates would reign supreme.
Lee "no arms" haney
Dorian didn't start as a one arm wonder, and he had the some of the best tris in the business, great forearms,branchii...I never mention Dorian had great set of arms, but he didn't need that, he smoked Haney's arms with what he had, that's a pity coz we are talking about two olmpians....P.S: ıf Dorian had some serious mass in his biceps, he would have great set of arms, I would like to see his physique with balanced arms...
In his case the pose makes a huge difference, like night and day. With his arms by his sides the arm imbalance isn't obvious.Unlike Yates, at least he knows how to smile:
His arms are tiny
