-
Yes he swung from trees but has since said because of his weight he can no longer do this.

IMO, that is why Kai pushes harder than everyone else.
Look at the other crop of top O guys. No offense, but they're not exactly tough as nails. Phil Heath has a computer degree and carries a louis vuitton man-purse. Jay wore the 'golden boy' moniker from minute #1.
Kai,, on the other hand, has seen some seirous shit. And that toughens one up. He's willing to go further cause it's all he had to get out of his situation. Jay could be a personal trainer tomorrow and make a good living, Phil could be a netadmin at the local law firm tomorow and do fine. Kai needs this.
-
I've heard this too, he was couch surfing bad, not sleeping on trains and park benches bad from my understanding. He advertised as a escort in a few alternative publications during that time too, maybe 10-12 years back.
He's had a rough life.

This is just his character, all the companies are pushing this for him, it's kind of like pro wrestling these days. I don't buy it.

I don't think J was a golden boy from day one. There were lots and lots of white big USA guys just like J around. He worked hard for it, survived, thrived, and made it.

WC, what matters is his Olympia placing and his placing won't matter because it won't be first.
Team Cutler Approved

Whatever Kai's flaws, if you have ever had it really tough, you can appreciate it./if you haven't, you won't get it. Not your fault, either, just reality.

yeah he grew up in one of those group homes. he had no family life. so all in all i guess he has done well for himself

You obviously missed his Musclemag cover back in 96...You obviously missed those ads with him "squinty eyed" looking up into the sun (golden boy).

i guess you could say he was a golden boy..but for good reason. you have to admit he was a freak. i mean how many 23yr olds do you know that looked like he did? none. he was/is a great bber. he has great width, structure(minus the waist) he has a great physique

The guy is bringing Dexter and Kai in the show, I don't get it thatMD hasn't done an interview with him yet.

Thats what I am saying Kai is hungrier than anybody! sucks to see him get robbed! I know cuttler will win due to being white and marketable. IFBB is somewhat racist. unless you are a half white black man or a phil heath looking black guy light toned and does not have that thug look. kai looks thuggish and I bet he could beats some serious ass if anybody fucked with him. Kai looks dope and probably should be #1 at the O. Hope he wins! I always love when the underdogs win.The man didnt have it nearly as easy as all of these other preppy bodybuilders! he reminds me of capriese murray a little and hes one of my favorites.Kai had to struggle like crazy to get where he is!

palumbo said KAI GREENE IS THE ROCKY OF BODYBUILDING

oh fuck off ... rough life my ass...
I was homeless when I was 18 - its not as bad as you fucking spoiled girls want to make it out.
Rough life ::)
I give your mom a rough ride every day of the week thats for sure

Not sure you can say that, since the Olympia has been around only three of the champs have been white Americans - Larry Scott, Frank Zane, and Jay Cutler. That's 9 out of a possible 46 Olympias.
The rest were all black and/or foreign.

But they were not thuggish! like cormier or kai. what about Arnold?
-

At night he made a nest from branches and leafs so he wasn't completely homeless..

I don't know if he was homeless but he was a ward of the state and live in different foster homes. This was on one of the vids done by Palumbo who visited him where they shared a home cooked talapia dinner. He was living in a housing project where Palumbo commented on the urine smell in the elevator. Kai's place was a crappy studio apartment. Plaumbo got to sit on the couch whereas Kai ate standing up. And this only about 4 years ago or so. I think he really started to make money after winning the New York Pro in 2008 and then the Arnold the next year when sponsorships started coming in. Oscar did help him a lot in the early years.
Jay wasn't necessarily a golden boy but he grew up in an upper middle class family and got his pro card at 21. Sponsors jumped on him as he was the perfect image: white, good looking, had the "golden boy" look, clean cut, well spoken, married high school sweet heart.... He never was hurting for money.
I don't like some of the stuff Kai did but when you don't have money. When you literally don't have enough to buy food, you get desperate. You have live. You have to survive.
-
I'm sorry, I guess I'm not understanding. What was it that prevented him from getting a job all those years?
-
Oh. He couldn't do any unskilled labor? He seems pretty strong...
-
I doubt the guy has much schooling backround and he might have a record wich could of prevented him getting work. I am out of the loop on this whole grapefruit thing? Did he do some kind of gay for pay? geez I hope not another gay 4 pay! geez! even Ray arde did gay for pay he did a jackoff video and he said he did it because he needed money to help out his mom with her cancer bills when the guy drove a corvette worth thousands! why the fuck would you do a few jackoff videos when you could sell your car? I know I rather sell my car than my soul. or at least hustle something else besides my body.I rather sell drugs then sell my self not saying I sell drugs but if it boiled down to it and I needed money I would take that route! I would never do gay 4 pay thats just wrong especially if your in the position to sell your corvette to help your mom and still have 10's of thousands left. he said he only made a few K doing those jackoff videos! just a selfish bpdybuilder making up n excuse of why he did a jackoff movie I bet his mom didnt see a dime. Now in kais position if he was starving I could understand doing what you had to do! I dont know the grapefruit story but if he got paid a few k to fuck a grapefruit so be it. obviously he wouldnt of done it unless he really had to wasnt like he was rolling a fat corvette like ray arde.I have zero repect for ray arde I didnt even see him on the rank sheet. is he still even a pro?
-
It's just that in a country where a 120 lb Guatemalan who speaks no English can come here and work an 80 hour week I just thought Kai might have been able to find something. Criminal Record?does that really stop a guy that wants to work? Or is just an excuse?
-
maybe mr greene don't like work?

Yes.. But a lot of people saw his Potential,and have helped him.. When he was younger,the gentleman who owned 5th ave Gym gave Kai all of his Shakes and Supps for free.. Kai took tons of Supps.. At least $3/400 a week.. That with all of his Shakes was at least $7/$800 a wk.. Then the free membership as well.. Kai was not loyal.. He went to another Gym,and did the same to the owner of that one... So the owner of 5th ave Gym,sold it to my friend,and guess who came strutting his stuff again.. Yup Kai. He chummed up to my friend,and my boy asked me,what should he do..? I told him not to trust anyone that would screw a friend over without thinking twice.. But my boy looked out anyway.. We went to Kai's shows supported him,and became really cool. Kai blew through everyone. You could see he was different from everyone else on stage. I don't remember him being so weird..? He was always so soft spoken and humble.. None of that dancing around the gym.. Had it not been for the Getbig detectives,I would have never known,or guessed he had a lust for fruit..? The shit people do for money amazes me..

so was Jesus Christ

having no employable skills would be my guess.
And the man keeping a brother down.
And I'm sure his appearance didn't help in a job interview.

That's actually a pretty common age for American males to become homeless ;D

Meh. This would've been 1980's NYC in the ghetto homeless, something tells me that homeless in Germany wouldn't compare.
