    Arnold, Franco, and I have to say Louie (just because he seemed a lot bigger then most back in the day even though he didn't have the definition of the day).

    Coleman is good but his work ethic is very lazy I have heard and that takes away from him in my eyes.

    and now ruhl....i am half german but 100% american so i gotta say atwood is my favorite out of the two....since physically they are both awsome....and even on a more local scale ronnie is a texas boy but his attitude turns me off...he will argue with people over the fact that he claims to be natural....just smile and walk away like the rest....i know he can't admit it but please....don't argue with people about it.....

    Sorry DADDYDBOL. Ruhl has the most aesthetically unpleasant body I have ever seen. There is something to be said for body symmetry.

    There is one that looks worse lol and thats artwood. I respect them for getting that big and the love they have for bodybuilding. But they just dont have a pleasing look to the body.

    Yeah big for big sake isn't everything. Now the ones that are huge with great symmetry, that is impressive to me.

    Coleman I must say have pretty good symetri.

    but my favorites right now is cormier and dexter without a doubt. Always been a big cormier fan. He just look so **** big, cut, powerfull and symetrical. Badass for sure

    i totally agree about them not being the most symetrical of bodybuilders....if thats what i was going after i would have to go way back to frank zane for the most balanced bodybuilder...

    art and markus just give me inspiration to get big....freakish big.....

    hell in my eyes i think you have more eye appeal than they do but don't they make you want to get big?
