I couldn't sleep tonight so I logged on to Ronnie Coleman .net an unofficial fan site that has some scans of various articles about big Ron, apparently he is 320lb and obly 8% BF in the off season!

I can't Imagine a bloke being that big and only 8% BF, a bloke walked into my gym once he was 6ft 2in and 280 at about the same BF and he was ****in HUGE! so how wide is Ronnie!

I mean hes 3in shorter and 40lbs heavier at the same BF!!!, At Olympia last year he was 295lbs comp weight and allegedly 2% BF! all this on a 5ft 11in frame, Its no wonder he wins every year in the day and age of Bulk I can't imagine a guy bulkier than that! :shock:

I've also read an article written by a pro who says that in his opinion if Dorien hadn't have retired Ronnie would never have won Mr Olympia as Dorien would have no doubt kept up with Ronnie size wise and had better symertry, any thoughts on this?

I agree that Dorien had better symertry than Ronnie but does anyone think that we would have seen a 295lb Dorien on stage?
