I'm gonna have to say Marcus Ruhl. Have y'all seen his "crab" pose (last masclemag). And the pic of him in 95 at a show in Germany (Flex). Very impressive.
By far my favorite BB

I hear the guy might be a bit of a dink but if I had to change bodies with one of them it would be Flex Wheeler.

I dont idolize or admire the IFBB professionals of today. I admire Frank Zane, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Franco Columbo, etc. These GHED freaks are an abomination to the aesthetic intentions behind bodybuilding.

Got to go with Chris Cormier, he's got the size and kick ass symmetry.I thought he had Flex Whiner beat for second last year at Mr. O.And instead of bitching and crying, Flex should work on his conditioning and realize that it takes more than just size to take home the hardware.

On physique alone I think I would have to go with Flex Wheeler. I really like his bodyshape. Just about everybody else seems like Ronnie only smaller. Flex's shape is different with those cannonball delts. I know he's kind of a dick though.

That's the #1 to me also "DARREM CHARLES". OK, he's not a freak of nature, he also isn't a freak of AS. Check out his symetry. We all know he won't make it to top 3 or even 5 because it's a big mans' sport.

I tracked down Markus Ruhl's gym in Europe and caught him in a delt workout. He was preparing for the show held last May. MASSIVE + FREAK was an understatement. He's my height, but looked 1 ft taller. This guy can't see his toes because the pecs are in the way.

Damn right Darrem has the best symetry in the sport today, too bad it all about being a freak and dying young today. And Flex had good symetry but ruined it with all the sythol trying to keep up wth the freaks.

Franco Columbu is my favorite, but I also admire other old-school fella. Guys like Steve Reeves, Reg Park, Bill Pearl, and other early ironmen. Most of the pro's today look like shit; guys from the past just looked better. If you don't believe me, just take a look at Jimmy Haislop. Come on, girls, you know that if you had to choose, you would definitely pick this guy over some Markus Ruhl look-alike.

What are you talking about Frackal? When I think of a nice, decent, bodybuilder who's an honest man of integrity the 1st name I think of is Flex Wheeler. Who else could fit that bill better?

For politicians is it's gotta be Bill Clinton. Now there's a guy who really exemplifies honesty and integrity.

btw, yes I was joking.

Shawn Ray... Because he's been in it for a long time and has had Titles tha the should have gotten taken from him a number of times, and because IMO he has a remarkable physique. His physique is just amazing. He is my favorite. I think the most amazing physique ever, regarless of steroid use would have to be Ronnie Coleman. After those pictures that Show put up the other day I never really knew the extent of how badass that guy is. He is going to win Olympia this year.
