Those pics can't serve as comparison... Jay is more bent, probably has more air in and shows more belly because his arms are more risen.
Those that should be compared are pics of them both in the actual poses. That's what judges look at:
it's not even fair to compare one's gut to the other, gimme a break!!
Then you want to compare legs' condition? Why not? Use those above and then:
Ronnie's quads look like wine recipients and are clearly too wide. They show a few more veins, but no better condition per se.
And where the hell were his calves?! Guess that doesn't count hey?
Ronnie only won in arms' and pecs' condition and overall upper back. Other than that he either tied or lost.
Had IFBBs rules been enforced he wouldn't even make it in the Top 3. And let me stress: they're IFBB rules, not mine or yours. I guess they only apply when it's their interest.
