It's official - Muscletech has "let King go".

He can no longer place anything higher than 9th at any small IFBB show.

Is his career done?

Don you haters realize that this just gives King better negotiating power to get a sweet deal after he destroys the field at the Ironman.

Nothing worse than being like Orville Burke in 2001 -- winning the Night of Champions while still being under contract for 1K/month for another year.

It's not Steve's fault that a 40 year old man who does nothing but lift weights for a living is more concerned about winning a "Night of Champions" ring than saving for his future.

Yes. He worked as a security guard in one of Trump's buildings. Probably made $8.50/hour like all the other security guards.

Why would Orville do a "favor" for Steve?
Facts: Steve owned Iron-Tek. Orville endorsed Iron-Tek from 2000-2001. Orville was grossly underpaid (if paid at all). Orville won the 2001 Night of Champions and took 6th at the 2001 Olympia. Maybe Steve did Orville a favor...

he should focus on getting ripped, rather than using synthol and trying to be huge. also work on his posing and sign with someone else. he has a great look, could do something in the entertainment field.

What Special Ed is saying is totally true.  Even his wife tried to negotiate with Steve to get some more but it didn’t work.  However he did promise his to place good in the shows held in NY and some other local shows.


Out of curiosity: how much was king getting paid??

Never compare a real bodybuilder (Orville Burke) with an oversized strip-tease artist on a bodybuilding stage ("King" Kamali)

First and last for Nasser; no returns.....Seems to me the "Big Nasser" isn't consistent with his whole image package, that's disappointing for any woman to come across.  Explains why he's not married; not even his own teenage cousins will marry him, to keep their lineage pure.  Gotta have something to keep the ladies coming back for more, Nasser.  From now on you will be "Cute Nasser".
