Title: Who is better, Heath or Levrone?
Post by: Wiggs on September 26, 2010, 03:04:23 PM
After yesterday, Phil's physique has surpassed anything Levrone has ever brought...better than 2000 Mr. O and 94 O.

Levrone still has bigger shoulders especially traps compared to Phil.

Levrone still has bigger shoulders especially traps compared to Phil.

Overall who is better?   Very similar physiques.  Heath kills him in back double bi, absolutely destroys him

i agree, heath has really made some improvements.

if he can keep his gut in check i believe he could dominate this sport for a long long time.

i say this because he trains smart i.e. avoids injuries and trying to feed his ego.

he is well spoken, he sounds intelligent and motivated about the sport.

i do worry that he will keep pushing the boat drug wise and the sides will destroy him, like it did with dorian, coleman, ruhl, james, cutler, etc all of these guys have hit amazing peaks then it eventually caught up to them......

i hope heath is different, as i believe he could spark a new age of bodybuilding.

Levrone used to measure up with Quadzilla...Levrone's legs only became a liability after his back injury and they were down in 99-00's, the 1997-1998 Levrone was a beast that Phil couldn't handle...

And remember Flex came second to Ronnie in 1998, Phil (of the distant future) wouldn't be able to hang...even with Flex a tad off, his superior lines would highlight Phil's flaws, and remember it was said that if Flex came in his 1998 Arnold shape, there is a big possibility that he would have won...

Youre right, the biggest challenge to the version Phil heath presented yesterday would be Levrone from 97-98. 

I just see Flex getting killed from the back by Heath.  Flex had one of the best back double bi's, but his hams and glutes were smooth in 98/99.  Heaths back double bi is just as good and his hams glutes are shredded.  And Heath is a tad better in the lat spread.  I still think Heath would win cause he is bigger and shredded everywhere.

Bingo on Heath and Levrone in 97-98 when he was 260 would fall to Heaths conditioning.

Phil shouldnt NEVER even be in the same sentence as Kevin. Kevin is a legend. He was massive with the structure of a track star/sprinter. . Phil looks like a 16 year old buy in puberty who hasnt developed any clavicles yet.
Take any black kid off the street, pump em full of drugs and two years and I will show you another phil Heath and thats the truth, In most cases will look better because its rare for a brother to have such narrow shoulders as that homo Phil.

It's a tough one.  I think they are very close.  I think that can really be justified either way depending on the judging.  It's not like asking if Phil is better than Craig Titus or someone else where the answer is obvious.  Maybe it's just me, but I don't think it's obvious.  It depends on the pose I think.

Its close, but I think Phil could get the edge even if is a little narrower. Levrone just wasn't complete, his back severly lagged behind and his calves were too small. Both at their primes: equal conditioning, I'm not sure if Phil would be bigger, it seems so.

Now, I've read some guys post that Phil is better than prime Flex. Are you people crazy?  
Prime Flex is almost unbeatable, only Ronnie and Dorian could surpass him.
