Greatest Bodybuilder Ever

[wanablifter]

presonaly i like Milos Sarcev i think he is well preportioned.

 

[nikegurl]

forgot one - Robby Robinson. he's so underrated in my opinion.

i still voted for Arnold but think Robby is up at the top of the "greatest ever" lists.

 

[wanablifter]

whats so bad about flex?

 

[EarWax]

I'd vote for Arnold, but he's a Republican...

 

[KataMaStEr]

Arnold is The Man. And from today bodybuilders my favorite is Jay Cutler he is freaking huge for a tall guy...

 

[sawheet]

anyone who is still alive and has somewhat of a liver and kidneys left.

 

[wanablifter]

arnold is the man he is the one who primarily started it all. he is awesome. #2 in my books if not # 1..

 

[Mudge]

Arnold was not only big, but honestly he was a truly asthetic bodbuilder, he looked just awesome, some bodybuilders can be huge and ripped but just look awkward, Arnie is one to remember.

Yeah, what a mental game he used to play with people! Rough...

Dorian. Hands down.

Sorry, Arnold I love ya, but no comparison.

I think Dorian was just a hunk of white meat, he didn't look asthetic to me IMO, just a huge mother.

I think the average is about 5'10"

Ray is like 5'5 though

Dorian 5'11" from what I heard
Arnie 6'2"
Lou 6'5"

Vince Taylor for that matter! They both looked great.

I think it's very hard to choose since today's bbs have such an adge with all the drug abuse these days as well as the new scientific data they have to rely on.........

Despite this Arnold would have to be #1 but not to be compared to the BBs of today.

As far as the modern BBs I'd have to say it's a toss up b/w Dorian and Ronnie..............I'll go with Ronnie.........great size and excellent cuts in the glutes, hams, amazing back, great biceps peak! His only major downfall has to be his abs......in this department I'd have to say that Shawn Ray rules! Also, I think that the cuts in Ronnie's quads also need some attention....they're huge but that's it.

Even though I chose Ronnie my personal favorite today is Dexter Jackson....always super hard and ripped with excellent symmetry!

 

[Mudge]

I like Ronnie's build better, Dorian looked like a blob to me.

Agrees with you BIG TIME!! Speaking of Pumping Iron, I don't know if any of you caught it but this past weekend on CINEMAX Cable TV, They aired it for the 20th year anniversary of the film. Afterwards was a show "the making of Pumping Iron" with interviews with many of the stars and never been seen footage that was cut out. F#$ken awesome. Noted that Arnie appears to have had a face lift. lol

Watching Arnold in 'Pumping Iron' was one of the most inspirational videos I've seen, so there's my go.

Bodybuilding would NEVER be what it is today, if it weren't for him

If thats the reasoning it has to be Joe Weider. Arnold would be nothing without him.

I saw this and it was great.

Because of it I am going to have to change my vote from Dorian to Arnold. Arnold is the Greatest Bodybuilder of All Time. Dorian had the most impressive physique though, much better than Ronnie, IMO.

 

[firestorm]

I hated Dorians arms after the bicep tears. They never looked that good after that. A rear double bi shot and he had absolutely no peak to his biceps. they just looked wrong. Still If someone said I could have anyones arms in the business I'd still say Arnies. The little Aussie fella Has great arms but my being 6 feet tall, they wouldn't be long enough on my body. hahahaha

 

[Arnold]

I never cared for Dorian Yates physique.

 

[firestorm]

I'm with you Prince. Never a favorite of mine either. I wouldn't want his look.

 

[Twin Peak]

I couldn't disagree more. But that's what makes this stuff so subjective. I just loved the hardness he had. His muscles looked so dense and thick.

 

[firestorm]

Will not argue about his thickness and denseness this is all fact. there was just something that just struck me with him in his last few Olympias. Not sure exactly but the torn bicep surely comes to mind.

 

[Twin Peak]

I understand you views, cuz I feel the same way about other pros. You just look at them and think "I don't like his physique". I feel that way about Gunther, for example.

To me, Dorian just looked awesome.

 

[firestorm]

Hey Twin,, you look awesome to me baby!!! hahahaha

 

[Twin Peak]

Dude, if you're hitting on me you should know I don't go there.

 

[firestorm]

Lmao. Don't worry, neither do I. My wife would get pissed if I brought a guy home. hahahaha
