1-Arnold
2-Dorian
3-Ronnie
4-Haney
5-Jay

This off course is based on a combination of both what I believe their impact was on the sport and their physique!

^^ I thought it is a new thread and I was like "I agree with the top 3 in that order" then I see my post from a few years ago haha.
Top 3 is the same for me: Arnold, Ronnie and Flex.
4th and 5th I'd change them with: Dexter for the insane consistency and Tom Platz for the best wheels ever and the absolutely crazy intense training routines!

IMO, Sergio Oliva had the greatest physique of all time. He may not have the hardware to show for it, but his reign - albeit a short one - came at an odd time when there were only a handful of guys (if that) on stage at the Olympia. And then when Arnold was anointed the next best thing by the Weiders, he beat Sergio even though he shouldn't have. I guess that was the first 'you-know-what' Olympia-wise.
