Arnold with Ferruccio Lamborghini a close second

the Countach and Diablo's and new Murcielago convertibles are almost orgasm inducing

I voted for Arnold, for many of the reasons already stated.

For todays pro's - I like Jay Cutler. (Still think he should have taken Mr O from Ronnie). I also like Gunter.

ARNOLD IS NUMERO UNO!!

Arnold is by far the best bodybuilder ever, no questions asked. He built an insane physique, with both size and cuts, that were no where close to being matched. If he had today's juice, there's no telling how big Arnold may have gotten. Yes, he had dbol and some primo, but no winnie-v, sust, primo, deca, and all the other drugs that guys nowadays take all of.

As far as nowadays, no question that Ronnie is UNBELIEVABLE!!!

And Lee Haney did dominate for almost a decade...

Definitely..
Ronnie is the f*ckin man the last 5 or 6 years. The guy is insane. He has an insane back and awesome bi's no doubt, plus his legs are as good or better than anyone out there. He's my second favorite all time behind Arnold. His only weak spot is his midsection, where he can definitely fix. Hopefully he'll win it this year too!

JAY better fucking win this year. Ronnie has the most fucked up biceps i've ever seen, its like 2 or 3 balls,,,doesnt look like a complete muscle.........especially his left arm. looks nasty.

Cutty has it all, and much better mid-section than Coleman hands down,, and he looked cut up in 2001,, bullshit he didnt win.

Dorin Yates sucks ass!

Arnold is ofcourse the man !

and no one has given props to Kevin Levrone,,, he is da man too !

no way Jay looks better. Ronnie is harder, he has more seperation and thickness (especially inthe back and legs). Jay loks great but not better than Ronnie. I saw them in person at a pose down a few months ago ( at a higher BF%) but Ronnie still has him beat. The midsection is all that he has him beat at. To beat the champ you must prove that you re better than him, and Cutler can't do it, I am telling you Ronnie is harder, thats why he hasn't been beat.

By the way how can you say Dorian sucks ass? You gotta give the man his props even if you don't like him.

I have to agree with everything said about Arnold ... I am thinking about digging out my copy of Pumping Iron .... but I also think Dorian and Ronnie rank up there as well.

From my vantage point of the third row at the 2001 Olympia, I will strongly disagree with this. Jay had his ass wipped up and down. Ronnie looked great but was off that night. Remember, I'm not talking about an ESPN vantage point either. Ol' Ronnie is on barrowed time.

maybe he looked better in the morning show when the judging usually takes place. It is all staged anyways, who wins and who doesn't.

Man I cannot agree more about it all being staged.

Jay had Ronnie's butt whipped nine way to sunday during the prejudge too. Jay was up about 5 points going into the night show. That's when I knew it was a fluke and sent Wayne D an email telling him not to insult our intellegence or our pocket books with all the VIP BS.

if jay doesnt win this year, then it must be some kind of a f000cking conspiracy. because he definitely looked more cut, shredded and just in overall better condition when he "lost" to the freak !

they are all freaks first of all, and secondly to be the man you have to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that you are better and No one has done that to Coleman yet, whether you guys like it or not

I don't think so. He did BB for plenty of time and I think tht he was as successful as he was gonna be. no doubt he had a great physique but I think he was too tall to really have an overpowering look needed to beat out the other top guys. I think that he realized tha and went on to further his career in a different field. He was as great as he was going to be IMO, which was still pretty great. everyone knows that Lou Ferrigno was a great BB just hearing the name.

Well no one has said my favorite yet so I think I'l take it and runs with it. I gotta say that I think Arnold is awesome, but I voted for Frano Columbo. I just love the lats on that man. I mean damm it looks like he could actually use them for wings and fly away. Plus I have to stick up for the little guy. What was he like 5,6?

Right dude? i love Franco's "wings", they are incredible.

Franco was listed at 5'5", but many people say he was actually closer to 5'4". That dude packed some impressive muscle on that tiny frame.
