Ronnie or Phil?

Both comparisons 10 years apart.
First 2001 Ronnie and 2011 Phil



2003 Ronnie and 2013 Phil

Ronnie at 100% and Phil at 100% - I gotta go with Big Ron

in those comparison shots i would hve to go with Phil, seems to hve tighter waist and better symetry from the back, although Big Ron's arms look bigger i dont think it quite makes up for the rest, very tough call though.....

Ronnie dominates. .

Gotta go with Ronnie. Phil has the upper hand in a few areas but not enough IMO

Ronnie's last O title was 05', would like to see pics from then.

He's wasn't at his best then and was probably lucky to beat Jay.
2001 and 2003 were his best years although I think 1999 was.

Probably wanna' see more recent pics of Phil too, but with those pics I'd give it to Ronnie!

What makes ronnie better?
what attributes?

He blacker.

Remembering that these are just photos and may not accurately convey the package on stage and that the most recent pic of Phil is apparently 2013 and alot can change in the better part of 2 years, my opinion is that -

Ronnie has better developed arms, particularly biceps with better separation and a better peak, although Phil improves greatly between the two pics.
Ronnie's abs are more comprehensive and defined.
Ronnie's ercetors and glutes are more developed and thicker.
IMO Ronnie's legs are a little more developed e.g. vastus medialis, but it could just be how they are posing. In the second pics he definitely has more vascular legs.
Ronnie definitely has more mass overall, whether this appeals to you or not is personal preference. Phil does have a much thinner waist and the shape of his lats accentuate that, however Ronnie has a bit more meat in his lats and personally I find that more visually striking. The two have very different physiques. Particularly in the first pics Phil's transverse abdominis looks better. Both have strong points and no doubt Phil will continue to improve, but based purely on these pics, I prefer Ronnie's physique. However we all know how subjective this sport is.....

Question. Is that ridiculous bicep peak Ronnie has legit or site enhancement?

How easy is it to tell?

Sometimes it's very hrd to tell. Lot's of them use SEO so it wouldn't surprise. Mind you Ronnie has large biceps anyway.

The other bloke looks better, like neddy suggests.

ron looks like a collection of body parts

At 100% Ronnie was the most complete bber ever - might be a long time till we see someone with his genetics again....Phil is a fantastic bber/fantastic shape but at 100% Ronnie had great shape, MASSIVE sive, and insane condition...

Well, Phil has overall good symmetry
his biceps are longer and arms overall better shaped.
forearms are a better shape and larger
pecs are smaller but the symmetry is almost perfect
same with lat's and overall back, symmetry is is incredible.
butt cheeks are symmetric compared to rons.
legs, can't see them

im no avid follower just my ob's

Massiveness?

ron has a larger frame.

Yeah, they both have quite different types of physiques.

Phil is put together better..........he more purdy
