Yates. I'm familiar with the body-beautiful argument, and Flex wins in that scenario. But even if Yates has worse structure, he's got more muscle, and is in better conditioning. Bodybuilding = building your body, not showing off genetic shape.

Yates FTW.

Agree,although I'm a fan of Flex,bodybuilding will always be about muscular development...shape is secondary.At almost the same conditioning there and a little bit shorter, Dorian is 30lbs heavier with a more complete physique(calves).

Yates, no question.

Most people choosing Flex just prefer his physique.

Although Flex 1993 is one of the best phisiques of all time to me.... Dorian was in crazy conditioning... he outmassed Flex by 10,15,20lbs (¿?)... his back was insane...

And what's wrong with Dorian's structure?
