Sunken cheeks means that he's cracking the top 6 for sure  ;)

I hope he comes in looking dialed. It is going to be cool just seeing what the guy can achieve at his age!

Nobody has to suffer.  All one has to do is fill their caloric amount with their favorite foods.  I am sure Levrone is dieting down on over 2000 calories.

Hardly fucking suffering.  Give me a break.  ::)

This middleaged assclown is going to place last at the Olympia this year !!!
Once you place him next to Big Rami ,Roelly Winklaar, Justin Compton and Dallas McCarver is going to look like a little kid !!!
The reality is that even in his prime , Levrone (1992 version), would end up crushed by today crop of Mass Monster !!!

like I said before, it is unlikely that he will finish higher that his last Olympia showing. That was the 2003 Olympia where he finished 6th. He must have lost a lot of muscle maturity, roundness etc. since not training for so long.

I think he'll take some amazing pics, weeks out, then claim an injury and skip the show.   


All of the intrigue of a comeback, get ripped and do some partial shoots now, and have the whole world missing him.  Then he can do it all again next year, and the same people will fall for it again.

He is going to reach a point, 2-3 weeks out,where he's cut to ribbons but just realizes he doesn't have the muscle and will look skinny up there.  At that point, he eats sweet potatoes, does an amazing photo shoot, and quietly announces how sad he is to back out of the show he was ready for.   Injury, knee or back, something everyone can relate to.   Kevin for the win of the year, super popular at expo for his 'comeback'.

Flex Lewis won't be beating Dexter, Phil, Kai, Rhoden, wolf, Dallas, Compton, Ramy, roelly, and some others in the open Olympia

Didn't Flex place highly in a couple of open shows.
Flex has a more complete balanced physique than almost all the people you have just mentioned.

He placed 5th at the 2011 Arnold Classic Europe, he beat a bunch of no names (besides hide) guys that places a head of them were victor, Dex, Ronny rockel, and toney Freeman

That may be true but like I said different era, it's been mass monsters for while now, that's why the 202 and then 212 was created

As good as flex is he would most likely lose to those guys I've mentioned

So are you saying that Kevin should compete in the 212 class? The lowest he ever weighed onstage was at the 1992 Mr. O weighing 225. No way will he be less than that and will most likely show up weighing between 233 and 240.

Regarding the topic of this thread, I thought the same, that IG video had him looking pretty juiced to the gills but if you actually go follow the link to the girl he is talking to, you'll see the video without the contrasty filter on and you'll realise just how much a filter can change your perspective of something.

Not saying he doesn't look sauced up, still, but it was quite surprising how much a filter would change a perspective.

With all of this hype.............If Kevin does step on stage, I will be surprised if he doesn't crack the top 10.

People saying he will place top 3 (or even win) are clearly delusional. The IFBB would lose any remaining credibility it has left.

Levrone was comparing a recent pic to an old 1997 picture recently.
I think he has surpassed his worst 2003 look where he had
a tricep tear 2 months before the show.
From around 2000 on he could half ass it and get a good check.

My doubt is the 50 year old legs. The upside is that he does have good leg genetics
as proven by his early years. At the 1997 Grand Prixs his quads were very striated.

Here is new HQ footage from the 97 Olympia night show.
He lost a ton of water from prejudging and would have pushed a very injured Yates
with this physique but back then prejudging counted for most of
the scoring.
This physique would have beat Dexter and been battling Phil for the title
last year. Go full screen if you can.

Agreed, the legs will be a huge factor and it will be interesting to see if he us able to bring them up. Imo, 2002 was his best package - great conditioning, detailed, and an awesome routine. He pushed Ronnie to the limit that year. I was there and the crowd went nuts booing twice - when Gunter was announced 5th and KL was announced 2nd.  Unfortunately, too much emphasis is put on leg size at all costs, to the point they're often out of proportion with the rest of the physique.  His legs cost him the title in 02 despite them being more separated, albeit smaller, than Coleman's.  

At the very least, I'm glad Levrone is competing and I'll be rooting for him. Definitely makes things more interesting.  

Here is his 02 routine.

Yeah I was going to say you look quite a bit thicker in the pic on the right. More mass. We're the same height. Wish I was able to be 220 with a small waist like you have. I went up to 223 and couldn't keep the waistline down. Need to be sub 200 for that (I'm currently 189).
