Why was Levrone never Mr. O? I mean, after careful examination (okay, not really) I have come to the conclusion that Levrone doesn't have any flaws. Most bodybuilders have flaws: Lee Priest (small chest), Nasser (lack of a back), Dorian (arms and stomach at times), Shawn Ray (I guess not enough size to hang with the "Mass Monsters), etc, etc. Even Ronnie Coleman had a flaw (calves).
I always thought BBing was about having a complete package. If that is the case, Levrone is definitely the uncrowned Mr. O. There should be no reason why he shouldn't have one Sandow under his belt. Was it politics? Can someone please provide me with an explanation.

Yeah, but at times coleman had a distended stomach. Wouldn't that alone give the Mr. O to Levrone? Shows he is a more complete bodybuilder. I always though to win the Mr. O you had to have every body part look good. Can't always say that for Ronnie. But you can always say that for Levrone.
-
he had some success in winning the arnold, and other shows, unfortunately he came along in an era where he had to compete with dorian and ronnie and it didnt work out for him. If he competed now days theres no question he would be mr olympia

I personally believe that all the judges knew that Kevin was a part time bodybuilder who was only on stage because of drugs that made the muscles look bigger then they should. And time shows they where exactly right in their thinking if they believed that. Today Kevin looks like a crack addict and Ronnie still lives in the gym. Either way they made the right choice in their representation IMOP. Kevin loved the booze and opiates and Ronnie loved the weights.

He hasn't stepped on stage in years. Ronnie could diet down and win a show in 8 weeks. I agree Kevin looks good today but for years the opiates and booze got the better of him.
-
chest?
Legs?

I don't think I would consider his chest a weak bodypart. I just think his shoulders and tris were so damn big. However, I don't think his chest is that off to the point of considering it a flaw or weak bodypart.
I also think his legs were up to par.

In the early to mid 90's YES. But later on his legs suffered dearly.

You said earlier that he looks like a Crack Addict but today he looks good. WHAT THE FUCK IS UP WITH THAT? ??? ???
-
Kevin consumed opiates?
-
levrone definitely deserved to win an olympia or 2 in ronnie's era but he too had his flaws.. his arms/shoulders/traps oversized the rest of him.. he had good chest but somehow narrow and small for his huge arms/shoulders.. it's very clear in his MM poses!!.. he legs where good (at their best) but his calves always lacked some size..

Semitics my friend.

don't know personally, but Shawn Ray loved to dish the dirt ;)
-
I've seen that second pic many times, but this is the first time I noticed that that is a V shaped dip bar. Very rare to see them, I want one. Even rarer is a complete V shaped, not U shaped.

Can you get the info and share it in here? To be honest I used to think opiates were a big deal but the more people I met who had experiences with them, the more I realized that mainlining anything is a bad idea. Some of these drugs probably would have reputations no worse than alcohol if not for mainlining. With that said, I am a non-drug user but I am not one to judge those who are who keep their habits under control.

When Shawn would post here years ago, he would drop a few bombs and then delete what he wrote. Almost like he himself was drunk at the time. Its been posted that Kevin once loved his methadone. Who knows, who cares. Kevin seems like a cool dude and rumors are just that. I don't want to bash a guy who was a pretty fucking awesome bodybuilder. FYI, rumor was that Shawn was totally jealous of Kevin so I'm semi sure that the opiates comment was BS from a guy who ate tranny cock with a fork and knife and was jealous of other bodybuilders.

LOL!!! The funny thing is, Shawn himself was likely drinking methadone when he wrote those things! ;D
-
I don't think Kevin ever lacked size anywhere, but his conditioning was up and down.
-
If only you knew who took/takes what... just cuz something leaked out about one guy doesn't make another clean.
-
levrone has one of the best mm poses ever!!.. may be 2nd in this pose only to nasser!!..

I can see your point - Levrone had no obvious flaws and I agree with this assumption.
However, tell me which year Levrone should have won the Olympia?
I would say the closest he got was in 1992 when Dorian was a bit smaller but Levrone was smaller too back then. He was never big enough to beat Ronnie who outweighed him by 30lbs+ so I can't see a year where he could have won.
-
Levrone's ancestoral roots are Italian and sub-saharan African, and that is basically the prefect combination for bodybuilding (in my humble opinion at least ;> )

He is just the best bodybuilder on my eyes :)

Whatever I lack physique wise I make up for with height. Alnutsakk is a mere midget. And so are you.
Haha.
-
as someone said, the problem was that he competed as the same age of Ronnie....but remember that Kevin must be one of the most winning BBs ever

Nah, probably not gonna happen. There's no point. I did gain some weight at one point and I've kept most of it but haven't been able to workout that much due to travel, work and sickness. Excuses? Sure. But at least I'm honest, haven't made any significant progress.
