I got those off of ProMuscle a competitor took them, his camera skills are not that great little blurry. There is no DENYING how bad Ronnie's back looks, he will lose again this year with what he used to win his first 8, his back.....

Judging from that one pic, wow Ronnie looks pretty bad. Can't wait to see the clever things his "followers" come up with in defense  ... I do wish Ronnie the best and hope he brings his best, but that just looks BAD!

hmm doesnt look good, but to be sure more better qualities pics from a few different angles. Going by that though Ron's only chance lies in being shredded to the marrow. Dorian won with torn bicep, jay leg and arm size difference etc etc..

Yeah, Ronnies left side is PRETTY bad. All we can do is hope that it gets better, otherwise he shouldn't step out onto the Olympia stage.

Tell me about it, the Ronnie bandwagon jumpers are just in straight denial. I am not even a huge Cutler fan, however this is obvious Ronnie is going to be #2 or LowER.....

His left side looks terrible. Its a shame, because I actually think he looks better with hair than bald, changes his appearance around a bit, plus his triceps seem to have improved, and even his legs, if that was even possible, but yea, that left side is brutal. The lack of balance might push him out of the top 3 in the Olympia.

I think you right, when he diets down imagine how bad thats gonna look. I am calling it like this:
1- Cutler
2-Martinez
3-Coleman/Badell
4-Badell/ Coleman
5- Jackson
My call on Badell depends on if he comes in IN SHAPE.

OMG PHOTOCHOPPED!!!?!?!!1 lawl
Yeah, I pretty much knew this was coming, no point really, but hey, guess loyal fans will be loyal fans, can't stop that.
Anyway, is it just me or Cutler developing some wicked back detail, he looked almost Dorianistic in that pic, ****ing A, I hope he keep improving, personally, I loved his 2005 Olympia look save he needed bigger legs and thicker back w/ more waist control, judging by all the pics, he's doing all that I'm asking, looking forward to it 07 Sandow #2 on the way.

Interesting, unlike alot of haters on here, I actually thought Badell was gonna do better this year and inch closer, instead it seemed like he took a step back from last year. Well see what he brings this year, I also think Melvin will get 4-5 again and bump one of those down.

Its worse, and in 2003 you have to watch the whole video to better realize it as the shot you took doesnt show it as well. I wont deny his injury or whatever you want to call ti is worse this year, my point is hes always had one in that area to varying degrees of severety.

One blurry pic at an angle with unattractive lighting... I'm not convinced either way.
(And yes, he's always had a spot on his left back that was a bit funny - and I think that as he became bigger, that simply became more exaggerated and noticeable.)

I'm a huge Ronnie fan and would have loved him to make it 9, but....... there's no denying his left lat, tricep and leg are all gone compared with the right side. Really sad to see. I wish he'd quit after 2005 but it takes a warrior to come back even with injuries. Only a miracle will see him take it back this year.

I was there last night.. here's some pictures from my angle.
I realize my angle is not that good in the pics, but from what I saw 12 rows back.. when Ronnie popped the lats, the didnt seem to explode like they used to. I'm not sure if it was the extra BF or what. I didn't notice any CRAZY disproportionate lat problem.. but that's a rookie talkin'.
BTW-I'm not biased.. I don't really care who wins 2007 Mr. O .

Ronnie needs to get the clippers out and return to the chrome dome look. That hairstyle just looks odd.

With such a lack of symmetry and such ****ed up proportion,Ronnie shouldn't even place in the top 8 of the Olympia,but unfortunately for the sport he will simply due to his reputation going before him.
No way he should be placing ahead of the likes of Dex,Victor or even Rockel with that kind of imbalance.

No way, I'm not a fan of his, but I think he looks a lot better with the hair.

I'm not a ronnie fan but i reckon the first pic is photoshopped, even so Ronnie's left side is absolutely terrible! His tricep looks non existent in comparison.
I think Ronnie won't place above 3rd unfortunately.
And i forgot to mention the silly new hairstyle and the gut
