What if Ronnie Coleman version 2005 compete in 2015?

[Jegudiel]

Can he beat or crush Phil Heath like a baby?

Phil heath - one of the least dominate Mr Olympia's in an average era
Ronnie coleman - the most dominate Mr Olympia in the most competitive era

Ronnie > Jay > Phil

[dingler]

It will be a long time before anyone rivals prime Ronnie. There are competitors with the same size, or more, and there are competitors with as good or better muscle bellies but no competitor to date has been able to combine both the way big Ron did.

Jay Cutler is the least dominant Mr O ever (who won more than 3) imo. 2006 - close; 2007 - not that close; 2009 - only dominant win; 2010 - close. Add to that his defeat in 08. His competition when he won wasn't better than what heath has faced: Broken ronnie coleman, prime Vic, DJ, prime branch, rising wolf, heath and kai (need to pay your dues).

Ronnie is unbeatable to this day. I doubt we'll ever experience anything better than him.

Tbh with the knowledge out there, I'd say our odds of finding a "Ronnie" are just as high as ever (as more and more can dabble in bbing and see very good results).

So far we've gotten 3-5 EXTREMELY genetically elite people to have participated in BBing:
(In no particular order)
1.Ronnie
2.Dillet
3.Sergio
Maybe
4-5
4.Levrone, I say that because his back insertions were awesome, his legs at one point were also insane before he got injured (92-4 Levro wheels=nuts)...had the potential for sure as far as frame/muscle bellies go, Flex had the muscle bellies but really did not have the frame
5.Ramy, if he can ever come in condition and bring decent separation he is Ronnie caliber...maybe not back wise (at least not yet), but his frame is as massive, his quads are bigger, his calves are better, his waist is incredibly tight and his tris are better. Prime Ronnie still easily takes him, but he's got the potential

[METALxGEAR]

Ronnie >all

That's because Jay's prime was during Ronnie's era, not after Ronnie's retirement. Jay turned pro in 1999 and started competing in the 90s. When Jay won his Olympia he was already burned out from the battles with big Ron.

Prime Jay>everyone today.

[deathmetal1992]

lol 2005 Ronnie Coleman was damn near his prime, he would have had no issues beating Phil. He would demolish him, along with every other bodybuilder who has ever lived. The only version Ronnie during his reign Phil might have a chance of beating is 2002 Ronnie. Heck, even 2006 Ronnie could probably beat Phil.

I agree with your list, although I would probably change the order to:

1. Sergio-Yes, he has less flaws than Ronnie, better calves, midsection, triceps etc. If he had been born 30 years later, he would've been the goat. Probably would've been a bigger and more complete Flex Wheeler.

2. Ramy-He is a genetic freak. Imo one of the best, he has all the tools to surpass Ronnie Coleman. He is just as big as him but with better flow. Give him another 4-5 years.

3. Ronnie-What can I say that hasn't already been said?

4. Paul Dillett-Great genetics, probably the best frame in the history of the sport. Every muscle group was amazing apart from the chest and back. The sad thing is his back was getting better towards the end of the 90s, by which point his upper body from the front started regressing.

5. Kevin Levrone-greatest responder to supplements. Had all the tools to be Mr.Olympia, however he had the misfortune of competing against Dorian and Ronnie, also he never came in at 100% due to injuries. 92-94 Kevin had great legs, 95-98 Kevin had a good back but his legs weren't as amazing anymore. 2000 Kevin was the sharpest he had ever been since 92, but his legs and back were down quite a bit. 2002 Kevin had a good back but his legs were non-existent.

[IzVenomous]

Ronnie would crush anyone competing today.

Only one I see even getting close to him ever is big ramy

[TropicalSunset]

Basically this. He would dominate with current bodybuilding criteria, even in spite his distension in 2005.

[Big Slim DaDDy]

Why like a baby? Those little pink panties of yours twisted up your little bum?





Ronnie is called the greatest of all time for a reason. I'll roll over in my grave if anyone ever equals him in the history of ever. So if someone equal appears 10 billion years from now ghost me will spin around.

[basmca]

he would win, bigtime.

he would be pretty much the most conditioned guy on stage, at the size of big ramy.

[RockyTheKid]

Ronnie Coleman would win easily. Ronnie from 2003 to 2005 would beat any bodybuilder, past or present.

Only RAMY, if he ever came in CRAZY SHREDDED, would rival any of Ronnie's best showings. But that's only IF.

[underdog2987]

Glutes of peace. Lol

I have a strong feeling that Ramy will not be able to come in crazy shredded at his level of muscularity but i seriously hope i am wrong. Im basing this on ronnie's later years. He was very conditioned, but he was never able to recreate his 98 O or 01 AC shape at that size. However, he only had 4 years to try it (03,04,05,06), while Ramy will have 10 solid years if he keeps his health.

Anyways, i will wait for Ramy to go through heath before starting to compare him to coleman.

He came in less distended in 2005. Looked great imo

[203mh]

There's some great bodybuilders nowadays, but let's be honest. 2005 Ronnie or just about any other Ronnie except MAYBE 2002 would slaughter the whole lineup

[RockyTheKid]

I still think Ronnie should've won in 2006, as well.

[Gorky88]

I still think Ronnie should've won in 2006, as well.

I do too. For prejudging he was a bit watery and had symmetry issues but in 2006 unlike 2007 Ronnie was still Ronnie and he looked huge.

[nicknatty]

Highly unlikely there will ever be another Ronnie Coleman. Athletes with the ridiculous genetic gifts of Coleman are more likely to be scouted into mainstream sports with more money and clearer pathways than fall into a subculture like bodybuilding.

[purdey]

Ronnie would beat him but Phil would get the Sandow

[mrdot]

Lol even Chris Cormier in his prime would beat phil

[gibbss]

well you posted all facts..
Maybe as a Mr O not that dominant.

But jay cutler came in second to ronnie like what 5 times ???
with that he beat a whole lot of talent..
i think that phil wouldn't be able to do that in what kind of shape or form..

[GymMeathead]

If every bodybuilder was at their best no one would compare to big Ron. He was the best bodybuilder of all time in my opinion.

[MesoPeaks]

Actually, Phil Heath is the most complete bodybuilder out of all the three....Jay, Ronnie, and himself....but his clavicle is just narrow.

Are you serious? Phil's back > Ronnie's?

[NaturalLoco]

Not sure if serious

Ronnie would dwarf Phil on every body part
