Stop. Just stop. But still... he's qualified, Levrone ain't. Discuss.

Bob - who certainly knows more than you or I on the subject - has said that Kamali is not qualified and that Levrone would most likely get a free invite.

Post by: Matt C on April 02, 2007, 07:52:09 PM: I talked to King a little at the Arnold. My advice was simple:

Go back to your 2001 form.

Period. Nothing more than that. If he can replicate his 2001 form, he will qualify for the Olympia as long as he continues to compete...

Post by: Condor on April 02, 2007, 07:56:30 PM: Even Levrone in his "Schwarzeneggered shrunken movie phase" would easily out class, and even out mass, Kamali.

Hey Matt, how tall was Kamali?

He claims 5'9 and 1/2, and I would say he is that tall at best. Looked to me more like 5'8 and 1/2, but there is not much difference between the two, so he is somewhere in that range for sure. I wouldn't call him short.

King talks a big game. He told me about all these improvements he plans to make when I spoke with him at the Arnold. :-X None of that is necessary - he just needs to replicate his 2001 form like I said.
