It seems like people either like Dorian's physique or they hate, there's no in between.

Dunno, maybe 4-5. His level of muscularity was good in 96 but his tear really hindered his aesthetics (yes im using this term properly).
But he really shouldnt of won in 97, and i think if Flex wouldnt of been involved in the Ninja conspiracy he would of taken it, and perhaps had more momentum going into the 98' Olympia.

Dorian was a great BBer, but he wasn't as good as others IMO. I think Flex beat him once and Kevin or Shawn got robbed 1 time.
Guess that makes 3-4 he should have won in my opinion.

I still think he should have won 6 but his arms looked so **** in 1997 and he was so bloated that it was defo time to call it a day. Nasser won from the front that year, doz from the back. Because nasser wasn't significantly better doz still took it.

Haha, haven't been into bodybuilding all that long dude. I feel for the time, I have absorbed a hell of a lot of IFBB history, but the odd things like this catch me by surpriseOriginally Posted by Whey Hey

Did that legitimately happen? In that video his story seemed a bit sketchy. Not the attack itself but how he didn't really go into much detail and that he "refused" to go to the hospital. Why would you refuse medical attention?Bench: 215x12 (17/12/2011) PR since torn RC

Umm you do realize that Dorian loses in all bicep poses. The bicep pose is one pose. There are much more poses. The back double bi,rear lat,ab pose,front lat dorian beats everyone. You posted a picture of a pose that everyone beats Dorian in and you make your case based off arms. Well a better back is more valuable than better arms.Originally Posted by DylanDetrick

Yes I know but I just can't believe that somebody who has THAT many things wrong with their physique can be considered the absolute best on the entire planet.

The whole point that it was a conspiracy is that he was covering up for the fact that he hadnt nailed his condition.

More pics would really help. Comparison shots.
Spike92 is 15.
^ place this in your sig to remind the world that Spike92 is indeed 15 and will never be anything other than 15.

Only thing you can make an arguement for is you like his abs more.....and having a 6 pack vs a 4 pack isnt something that gets judged. I like Ronnies non sythol arms. How about you?Originally Posted by DylanDetrick

Ronnie also had a little bit of a gut in '98(but nowhere near as bad as it was in later years).
But, please, let's stay on topic.
