maybe he had to take a huge dump?

Probably not the case.  Because you were not there to "take a huge dump" on.

Don't worry, though, there are doubtless other huge dumpers out there for you to get shit-faced with.

Man that sucks.  I didn't even know.  How the hell could this happen? Life is too short...

How could it happen? A boatload of gear, holding 300+ lbs year-round, moonface, BP that registered on the Richter Scale? It's a mystery.

I think it was more like 400 plus+ off season. Didn't he compete at 359 or something?   I know we all saw it coming but still.   At least he lived longer than a lot of others. Which is sad when you think about it.   DA for one. And MOMO to name but a few. As well as all the young actors dropping like flies. Heath Ledger, River Phoenix ect...

greg kovacs is somewhere laughing at all you bitches

Training with heavy weights ruins you from the inside out.

All too often, even those bodybuilders who don't die at a young age derail their careers by falling into destructive relationships.

Greg Kovacs pulled the finest pussy that ever walked this earth! That period of time... when MMI was at it's "pinnacle" had the most hottest women that I ever saw. It's probably just nostalgia for me though, maybe? But yeah, he's laughing for damn sure. lol

During the era you reference, I was an editor at MMI. Trust me, Greg was NOT pulling any pussy, anywhere. He had a nagging and hugely annoying wife who tagged along everywhere he went, desperately attempting to fan him off well enough to keep the lingering stroke and heart attack at bay.

I didn't dislike Greg. Actually, I am fairly neutral about my feelings about the man. He was just ... there.

I realize that he wasn't literally "pulling" any pussy. After all, he was married. But still, in the photo shoots... he had those women hanging off of every limb. I know it's all just a fantasy world but still. The bottom line is that he's the one in those photo shoots... not us

Kovacs was a great man.  We would have all been honored

[The Abdominal Snoman]

It would take 3.2 of Kai Green towels to wipe Kovacs ass after he took a Lee Priest type duke...

Yeah, that must have been a site to see. Amy Lynn, Trish Stratus, Amy Fhadali, ect... Gee I can't remember all the names... but those girls in that era were my favorite. And damn those covers! You weren't accused of being gay I tell ya! People thought you were buying a straight man's porno. And the girls were in shape.... but not "she male" like how the girls are feminine in Oxygen... which is a spin off ass we all know.

I agree. Some of those girls were SMOKIN'. I'd often find my tongue hanging out. Truth. It was actually painful. The Fuck-O-Drive would get stuck at full throttle.

"The Strongest Bodybuilder Alive"

I'm thinking

Arnold for 60's & 70's
Sigmarsson for 80's
90's - don't know? Kovacs bragged lifts doesn't seem to be found in his videos.
Coleman for 00's
10's - don't know?

In 2014, there are those who Hammer Bench Press for 5 plates per side, and those who don't.

[mazfit]

Got to give it to the man he may have accomplished what millions have wanted to at time to be the biggest bodybuilder ever. Just a matter of time before him and zyzz start making youtube videos from heaven
