Does anyone know if yates will ever compete again or if he does seminar or guest posing or anything. I regret not been able to see him since i only got intresed in BB in 1999. Now it really depresses me and pisses(seriously) me off when i see the pictures of him in flex at the British Grand prix in top form. It not as if i would of been hard to see him in 1997 the G.P. was held in nottinham aboyt 45min away from. I'm fuckin guted.     | ||

bro i got a chance to meet him this past weekend at the musclemag international in venice, CA. I just told him 6 mr. olympias is an amazing accomplishment, didnt bother to ask him if he was going to compete again, but I got the feeling he wasnt going to compete again. I put a post on the board but all the jealous playerhaters wouldnt even respond to it, so fuck you dumbasses. Anyway he is still big, I say around 250, but it was neat shaking his hand and meeting him, I took a picture with him but they arent developed yet, I hope it came out, it was with one of those cheap one timers without a flash, anyway I will remember it forever, and to all the jerks on the board who wouldnt respond to my post, I have a big middle finger for all of you backwoods bastards. | ||

I think he might compete again, and I wonder if this has anything to do with his divorce to his wife debbie. His back is just as good as Ronnie's and he has ronnie beat everywhere from the waist down, calves and thighs are better. Ronnie has those high calves that black guys are predisposed to, and in my opinion they look like shit. The only thing is ronnie will smoke him on arms, and I doubt he could beat him solely for that reason, as yate's arms sucked, esp in the later years and in 97 when he had the big tricep tear. ------------------ | ||

bro I am a huge dorian yates fan, but you know what, I dont think he could beat ronnie coleman, I could be wrong but coleman is just too strong, I saw a pic of ronnie, dj, and cormier at the arnold, and the look on cormiers face was, "man I or nobody will ever beat ronnie coleman" you can flame me or whatever but in planet muscle it states that coleman is the biggest and best bb there has been in the history of bb. He has more muscle per bone structure and is just huge. anyway just what I think. | ||

i recently competed at a local show and the MC (who is an ifbb pro) said Dorian is aiming to do the masters olympia this year. could be bullshit, but it got my attention. personally i don't think dorian could compete against guys like coleman, wheeler, cormier. his last olympia win was a gift. yeah, i know that sounds sacriligous, but oh well. | ||

I AGREE WITH CN1, RONNIE CAN HOLD ON TO SO MUCH MUSCLE MASS AT SUCH LOW BODYFAT LEVELS, IT AMAZES ME. A DOUBT ANYONE CAN BEAT HIM RIGHT KNOW. MAYBE WHEN DORIAN WAS IN TOP FORM BUT EVEN THEN IT WOULD BE A HARD TO TELL. ------------------ I am Conan, the Ironbarbarian back from the deep dark hell! | ||

yeah and if he did the masters could he beat vince taylor? I know that sounds funny to say but its true, after 3 years of layoff, it would be hard to just jump right in and win again, or beat a seasoned guy. | ||

vince taylor is the man. But I dont think ronnie shoulda beat levrone. Ronnies gut is just too huge. 42" in contest shape. Yates was cool, but I thought flex was better then as well./ | ||

From what I gathered from a guy who runs a sports supplement store that Dorian has appeared at to do signings is never again. Between the muscle tears and the drugs(which this guy told me flat out that Dorian was taking ridiculous amounts everything) he was forced into retirement-too bad though I would love to see him and see someone beat coleman. ------------------ | ||

CN1 I really hope you know what you are talking about becuase it really isn't cool to start rumors that someone is about to die and that others are forcing him to compete and pushing him towards death. This is not a flame because I don't know what you know but those are some pretty big statements | ||
