Look at my first post. I said Ronnie's was the best until this year. You brought up Jay Cutler, and anyone that beats the former best back ever (no matter how off he was) deserves to be mentioned as one of the best backs ever. Also, posting a picture of Jay's back when he was about thirty years old (training for about 13 years compared to Ronnie's 30 years) is lame.

Face the facts, Ronnie has better genetics than Jay and he lost. Jay's hard work pays off and that is exactly why I am a part of Team Cutler.

i agree jay is a much harder worker.. he has to be.... :e5dunno:

Not another Ronnie vs. Jay Thread please, keep it on track.

I vote Ronnie (in the past) as the best back ever, Dorian is second.

He thought I was saying that Jay Cutler's present beats Ronnie in the past.

Instead, I was trying to say that Ronnie has the best back ever but the way it looks today is not up to par with Dorian/Jay/etc.

Ronnie out does dorian due to genetics, the shape of ronnie's lats is just more appealing. Dorian had some crazy thickness though.

I appreciate arnold as much as the next guy, he got me into bodybuilding, but he is not even close in the back dept to either ronnie or dorian. There is a reason why you can't find many straight on back shots of arnie.

The coleman vs cutler bit, Cutler may have beaten a severely degraded coleman back this year, but put cutlers best against colemans and it is lights out game over for cutler, no contest.

i think he had some serious health issues and had to give up bb

"I heard he went in for tricep surgergy, had seizure, and slipped into a coma. Was in intensive care for about a month. I heard he is never going to be a part of competitive body building again." off another forum
