Is it just me or does dorian have a better back then Ronnie in this pic?? Nice comparison between the 4 of them none the less, not many photos like this around.

geeze, freakin huge dorian is so thick, and arnolds chest in the front double biceps is insane

**Ejuicer** · 02-23-2006, 09:55 AM

Dorian would be my pic out of them as well.
It's interesting to see on the front double bi to watch the time line from arnold to coleman and watch the stomach protrude more with each one.

What was amazing about Dorian is that he only had good genes not freakish genes like the yanks.He worked harder than anyone,the day after we wins MR O he is in the GYM looking for the rebound effect.I mean Flex had the perfect genes-but Dorian waS a Warrior,and shows you that you can beat others with weaker genes.

Thats a good point. Goes to show that the importance of excellent genes is not as important as people think. Have a look at Ferrigno back in the day, does anyone remember the comment form his dad that said "Lou was so skinny they wouldnt let him join the football team because he was just so skinny", and before you know it, he's competing for the Olympia. Franco's genes weren't great either, he was a stick figure when he used to box.

king dorian aka "the back"

**IronReload04** · 02-23-2006, 07:27 PM

the heir apparant still reighns supreme!!!

**IronReload04** · 02-23-2006, 07:28 PM

imo, the greatest

ps. coleman is a warrior too.

but yates had a better look. totally agree with the dude who said what a warrior yates was.

**scriptfactory** · 02-24-2006, 03:40 AM

I like how they made Dorian and Arnold so tall and Ronnie so short. Dorian is an inch shorter than Ronnie and Arnold is only 2 or 3 inches taller...

**Warrior** · 02-24-2006, 03:55 AM

It's deffinitly a sign of how things have evolved... Arnold was perfect in all his mass... Dorian showed us what a lot of hard beef looks like - and Ronnie is show caseing a real proportional mass freak.

I don't see how much more this can evolve... I mean - if Ronnie's successor stands on stage at a shredded 350 pounds - IMO, the mass thing is gettin' out of control... and the amount of drugs must be putting too much stress on some of the athletes systems...

Arnold had a fantastic body... but I'll go with Dorian winning this as well. Props to Ronnie with all that insane amount of muscle and holding the title for so long - and into his 40's!

**Spyder** · 02-26-2006, 07:50 AM

Wow, Dorian definately has the better Lats, gotta give the Legs and to Coleman hands down though.

**mrmmonster** · 02-26-2006, 09:00 AM

that 4th comparison pic of ronnie is one o my favourites.....even tho his abs arent great i htink for someone so big to be so proportional is amazin....i think that is one o his best poses personally!!

**Lion King** · 05-09-2007, 04:58 PM

You just can't compare eras.

**gigem** · 05-11-2007, 07:47 PM

i thnk dorian looks better than ronnie all the way around ronnie is on his way out lol

**Panzerfaust** · 05-11-2007, 09:43 PM

I would rather look like Arnold than any of the others.

+1 on that. I would rather look like Arnold or Flex. Flex when he was an aesthetic 220lbs. Before he packed on all the mass to compete with the bigger guys. I have always been a huge fan of Dorian's back though.

**doolo** · 05-12-2007, 11:29 PM

I still think larry scott is the best looking bb'r, borderline "too big" in the average persons mind. Kinda where i would like to get rather then freaky.

**Valac** · 05-13-2007, 12:12 AM

arnold doesnt even rate compared to today's athlete's. for ppl to still bring arnold into comparsion with any of them is just a joke. ronnie hands down for comparsion sure dorian's back is huge but he's not as porportioned as ronnie. i dont see bb's gettin to much bigger the human body has its limits and im sure they've just about pushed em to the ends

Agree; Arnold looked like toothpick compared to others.
