    Some of the cut categories include Completeness, Genetics, and Work Ethic. At first glance, all of these things might seem indispensable. But really, completeness (or not lacking any body parts) can be subsumed under Symmetry & Proportions, since anyone with glaring weak points or imbalances will be marked down there.
    Genetics is basically redundant because if you score highly on structure, symmetry and proportions, mass and aesthetics, you're genetically gifted. Aesthetics itself also has some major overlap with symmetry, structure, and proportions, but I felt this is so important in the eyes of most bodybuilding fans, especially the casual viewer, that it warranted its own score. (Also wanted something to offset the enormous advantages modern bodybuilders have in the muscularity and conditioning departments.)
    Work ethic is a little more debatable but as far as actual bodybuilding competition is concerned, I would argue that it's largely irrelevant. Whether you're squatting 800lbs or only leg pressing 2 plates, it doesn't matter; all that counts at the end of the day is what you bring to the stage. It was kind of factored into Impact & Influence anyway, but I don't believe it deserves its own sub-score.
    PS Franco Columbu was not included because nobody in their right mind would rank him above Arnold, Zane, AND Sergio. So by definition he cannot be the GOAT.

      Franco totally blew it in 1981 despite the contest results. “But he could deadlift 700 lbs. they will say”. Too bad bodybuilding has nothing to do with powerlifting feats.

    In defense of Frank Zane: he is the only one here who frequently defeated competitors outweighing him by 30-50 lbs. As far as the shock factor, Zane looked nothing like his photos in real life. I was totally blown away when I saw him in person. His level of conditioning, and his polish and finish were absolutely mind blowing. He didn’t look small at all. That didn’t happen until he stood next to a monster like Lou ferrigano.

      I also saw saw Lee Haney in person. He looked like he did in the photos( awesome). I disagree with what you say. I think overall appearance, size, and shape are easy to convey in photographs or in magazines. The quality Zane had was a type of “glow”, “polish”, “finish”, or “ presence” that I have never been able to describe. His skin was paper thin, tan, and the muscles had a type of detail/ perfection I’ve never seen before or since. I was with some friends from high school who doubted that he wasn’t better than Robby and Mentzer and the rest based on photographs in magazines. After I saw him I had a total realignment about what bodybuilding was about and it isn’t weight scales and tape measures. He was just on a different level. When I think of bodybuilding I always think back to what I saw that day in 1980 and I’m still affected by it. I laugh to myself when I hear people think Zane was a natty. There is absolutely zero chance of anyone looking like him without chemical enhancement.

Regardless, I would of never guessed that Frank excelled so much in that area. Truly remarkable if you ask me. That's awesome. Really goes to show how impactful Zane has been for bodybuilding.

Some 200 lbs fatty gym bros who thinks they are 10% bf (who are actually 20%), “i will cut 10 pounds and ill look like frank zane”, no dude you need to cut at least least 40 lbs lmao.

      The look and the way we judge bodybuilding has changed so much over time, it's really difficult to compare bodybuilders from different eras. I think you have a pretty good system here to level the playing field. Although the Mr. Olympia is the most prestigious contest but its history has some politics around it that suggest that it has not properly recognized some of the greatest athletes competing at the time (Robby Robinson, Mike Mentzer, Flex Wheeler in particular) seem overlooked. There were some dominating and great bodybuilders before the Olympia (Steve Reeves and Reg Park in particular) that would seem to be in some contention for being ranked as GOAT despite existing before the Olympia. Still it's hard to argue with your final rankings. These are all awesome choices.

His system takes a lot of things into consideration, and if jay maybe shouldnt have gotten a point there, others shouldnt have gotten this point here. at the end it would look more or less the same, bcs this is probably the closest we come to a precise rank of them, even if there hadnt been any points.

Second place should be award half the points of first place Mr.O and 3rd place 1/3 points of one Mr. O win. I think this pretty much validates most people's ranking of BB goats.

      Benjamin Wilson um mj is not the case here. he is clearly a more dominant, skillfull and mentally strong basketball player compared to bron who once gave up and made the big3. well bron has clearly more longevity than mj and he had his some dominant moments that could maybe be compared with mj's , but he cannot beat mj in terms of clear dominance in either as an individual or as a team. mj was dominant as an individual throughout his whole career except at the wizards, but what makes mj special is that he started from the bottom and leaded his team to grow up and build a dynasty. bron also started from the bottom and lead his team to grow up, but he gave it up and that makes the clear difference in terms of mental strength of the two players. if you want to claim bron is better because of his statlines based on his longevity, i say this is basketball not baseball. in baseball, yeah that claim is right but in basketball, already there is karim who beats the hell out of mj in longevity but still remains behind mj. mj is the goat because of his dominance(both individual and team), his skills, his mental toughness, and his influence. bron is clearly behind mj when you consider those things that are important for basketball goat not baseball goat.

    This was a great video. Only thing I would change is make Olympia runner ups worth half the points or Olympias double. I would probably do making runner ups half the points because doubling it would be unfair since Arnold had many years where the title was just given to him or was unjustly given (1980) and Oliva also had a couple years where there was no competition. But jay cutler having a higher Olympia score than Ronnie is unfair once you consider the fact Ronnie has double his Olympia wins.

My feeling is that Frank Zane was neglected from the standpoint of posing and impact, on the other hand Ronnie Coleman was overrated in the field of aesthetics (e.g. Dorian Yates had extremely good calves with no bubble gut and got only 6, Ronnie had bad calves and big gut, in spite of that he received 7) and individual routines (I really do not like his dancing style during posing).

      Yates wouldn't beat an 03 ronnie purely down to the fact that he would get outsized and outmuscled but remember that wasn't the best ronnie! He was massive, but so was his gut and his conditioning was non existent to that of 98! You can see it in his back, how watery it looks and his overall symmetry and proportions were awful. This isn't a knock on ronnie in anyway, he's one of my favourites.
      Ronnies best physique was 98 and that's coming from ronnie himself, along with 01 Arnold Classic, purely down to the fact that they were almost identical physiques in terms of size, weight and conditioning. So if you put them against a 95 yates, yates would come out on top! 95 yates 257-60, ronnie in 98 was 247 I believe. Yates wins 4 out of the 7 compulsory poses..
      (YATES WINS)
      FLS
      BLS
      ST
      A&T
      (RONNIE WINS)
      FDB
      BDB
      SC.
      Ronnie in 98 was good enough for the win, but he barely beat an off flex wheeler. That physique is more beatable than an 03-05 one! Chris aceto said himself how impressive dorian was in person that year up close. Was like he had no skin his conditioning was that good A long with all that size and thickness too! I asked him in a recent Instagram live chat 95 yates vs 98 ronnie and he said yates beats him (just) so for the people that constantly go on about ronnie and the years he was apparently unbeatable, try backing it up with some kind of knowledge or criteria as to why.....

This will give the importance of each category its true value since now some category are higher than they should be since they have many scoring raw. I hope you got my point.

    As I feared when I saw the criteria this is partially an exercise in Dorian bashing.
    He was the most dominant bodybuilder (with Ronnie). No one dominated his opponents mentally more than Dorian. How many times did Ronnie finish outside the top three? How mant times did Dorian?
    Dorian' score for Impact and Influence is - forgive the strident language - a joke. He crashed onto the scene and every bodybuilder since Dorian looks like they do because of Dorian. That is influence, He has to score 9.
    Dorian and Haney score 4 for Longevity? Oliva made a comeback after years in the wilderness and scores high. So if Haney made one appearance this year- regardless of his condition, would his longevity go up to 10? Decade long careers can't score 4. I think this proves you were 'relative' scoring against a Dexter baseline - he gets 10, so you suggest it's impossible to compete longer.
    I'd have Dorian and Haney with several more points at the end in joint second.
    It would be closer on my card....but it's hard to argue with Ronnie as the winner. From any competitive standpoint, the best Ronnie beats the best everyone else. He edges Yates and Lee. Who would just edge Phil - Phil's best physique maybe pushes Ron hard, but there's too many factors against him to be top three.
    But hey, if we're talking about real longevity and greatness off stage as well as on it....
    Ronnie's body is destroyed. Dorian is a polarising character with weak biceps. Phil turned up for three years with a bubble gut and some people just hate that guy. Arnold had some gifted wins and some weak ass body parts.
    But Lee Haney? Lee is one of the happiest and healthiest 60 year olds on the planet. He is universally admired for his aesthetic yet huge frame and balanced, ripped physique. He is universally admired for the intelligent and generous ambassadorial role he takes for the sport. He has eight Sandows and only one of them was even close. No robberies or questionable decisions. No controversies. Gaspari (who took 2nd to him 3 times and 3rd once) and even Dorian (who beat him in the mandatories in 91) have never even hinted or suggested they should have beaten him. You may argue it was a weak era but he won by such margins it was total dominance.....by a real gentleman.
    Tot up your points if you must. On a stage in peak condition Ronnie would probably win.
    But the greatest in my mind?
    Never off. Always classy. Aesthetic as fuck. Healthy as hell. Lee Haney.

    • @kfitz2711
      @kfitz2711 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Your last line really sums it up for me as well. Lee Haney is such a gentleman and true ambassador of the sport. His consistency was frightening and he really owned the 1980s. Physique-wise I think he's the best of both worlds....lots of mass while retaining aesthetics that ANY man would be envious of. Any Mr. Olympia after him with the possible exception of DJ, has had to my eyes, something about their physique that was entirely unappealing and thus, less Olympia-like to me. (bubble guts, blocky waists, TOO big of a back, etc)

      @@kurtvonfricken6829 I think that's a bit harsh, As I've said his place in the world of bodybuilding - healthy and ambassadorial greatly contributes to his overall status and 8 wins is statistically the joint best. But to say everyone since then is worse is a subjective view. I admire aesthetics but you can't deny Dorian's impact - only one year did he have what you could call a bubble gut. In 93 he presented perhaps the greatest package ever seen. No one before or since has produced that granite hard conditioning and back detail at that bodyweight. None of the mass monsters could match his conditioning.....and none of the aesthetes could match his mass. Jay Cutler wasn't as freaky big Ronnie or as conditioned as Dorian but in 2009 he produced a ohysique with no weak points. 270lbs of perfect proportion. Heath in 2011 and 2013, before the bubble gut, delivered a roundness and fullness in every muscle group that was unprecedented in competition shape. And all through the 90s and 2000s Flex Wheeler, Shawn Ray and Dexter presented full, aesthetic physiques thaf were more complete than Haney's - better limbs.
      Lee is, all things considered, the greatest bodybuilder but that doesn't necessarily mean he had the greatest body......even I acknowledge that part is totally subjective.

It's what the judges reward that defines the sport.

      Riffat Islam young Ronnie was more aesthetic than any version of Jay. The version in 1998 was probably the most aesthetic mass monster that has ever graced the stage.

      RONNIE was only aesthetic in his early 2 or 3 olympia wins

    The Idea of this list is pretty great and I almost agree completely with the way you judged the respective categories, but one thing that doesn't really make sense in my eyes is that the points for 2nd place olympia are 1:1 with 1st place olympia placings. So Jay has the edge here with 10 points in total even though he only actually won 4 times. I would have given it something like a x0.5 or x0.7 multiplicator.

    I can live with those rankings ! Although I personally feel that Arnold had a little too much influence which benefitted himself in accumulating his 7 Titles, he makes up for it by having influenced the sport more than anyone ever.
    Everyone has had their share of criticisms and compliments, with some more than others, which more or less cancels themselves out.
    It’s funny, because if you were to do another one of these videos with the bodybuilders who never won a Mr.O Title, they’d almost all come from the Yates/Coleman era. The consistency of the competition back then was simply spectacular. And this is most likely why the 90’s is seen as the best era ever.
    Cheers

      I lost interest after the1980-1981 Olympia contests. I believe the 90s might have seen the best competitors because of the drugs. Weren’t more people dying right after competitions back then? I think people might have wised up but perhaps not.

      Kurt Vonfricken Well, Arnold’s era wasn’t much better than the era’s that came after. Read this article. It’s unreal.

      I’d say the recreational drugs are the biggest killers. Although, diuretics and insulin are also not great if you don’t have a full time personal doctor.
      People did whatever worked for them back then. It’s just that nowadays, there’s more things that work. It really boils down to that.
      It seems the top bodybuilders all stay relatively healthy after they retire. It’s the bodybuilders who push the limits too far yet can’t achieve their goals that go off the deep end.

    What’s amazing about body building is it’s almost always going to be about the subjective impact the athletes and their physiques have on us, the fans. We’re all into the sport because we can find a physique that speaks to what WE find aesthetic, what WE find impressive, and what WE want to emulate. This discussion of the GOAT should not be about heated debate, but a celebration of a sport that purely exists to empower others
