 Ronnie Coleman thinks he shouldn’t be in this conversation

In the video, Coleman watches a panel discuss comparisons. To a question about who has better body parts than Coleman, Nick’s arms were pointed out. As the discussion continued, the 8 x Mr. Olympia remarked it as “comical” and said he shouldn’t be part of the conversation.
