Greatest Bodybuilder of all time

[jiggy]

Until Ronnie,
The greatest bodybuilder, not based on what he won but on the body he built
would have to have bee MoMo , Mohamed Benaziza.
I know I was VERY impressed when I saw him in person showing his condition.
He is the ONLY bodybuilder to have beaten Dorian at the NOC.

Great post, great out-of-box thinking/memory.....Momo! Rip.

Seeing that pic sparked a memory/thoughts for me.
"Physique" "Personality" "Financial success" "etc" all categories used in this thread.
I throw out words "Good character, selfless, hero".

In the midst of the AIDS Panic/Freakout/Paranoia, when it was a death sentence, when everyone was literally Terrified of everyone's' bodily-fluids, when types/ways of transmission was unknown, when Everyone's fluids were suspect, as beloved Momo was choking on his own vomit, it was Bodybuilder Porter Cottrell who gave mouth to mouth, spitting & wiping the vomit out of his own mouth, and going back in trying to save Momo.

That is a selfless man. Maybe not the best physique of all time, but imho, one of the best bodybuilders, in character. He proved it that terrible and sad night.

Put every guy on that list(or in the history of bodybuilding) at there very best on stage next to one another and Ronnie Coleman wins hands down. All other things aside he's the greatest competitive bodybuilder of all time.

Arnold changed the sport from a cult following to mainstream.

very tough question to ask. i could go with Ronnie. He built the most amazing freakiest physique. the most developed if we're talking sheer muscle mass with zero areas lacking in development. However, if we're talking the greatest looking physique, i might say Flex Wheeler or even Charles Clairmonte. Haney too but the problem with Haney is that his legs were IMO a notch or two below his upper body. Even though some were bigger, i still believe Haney had one of the greatest upper bodies (especially his back) of all time.

Easily Arnold though, as the most influential bodybuilder in history.

I loved Mo Mo! He took conditioning to another level.
