IMHO, he just looks to be 15 pounds smaller than he was back in the day.

Is he still claiming 251 pounds?

Yes. Agreeing.

Seems like Kevin would need more time to regain his former mass and conditioning. In one week that back will be next to Phil, Ramy, Cedric, Rhoden, Dexter, Roelly... ect

He's depleted, not a great quality photograph and terrible lighting. Read between the lines, he's going to look great once he's got some carbs in him and cut his water.

Post by: Royal Lion on September 09, 2016, 02:20:58 AM
He looks every bit the same size/proportion to me.  And with a 29-in waist he will look much better the Roelly and the other behemoths with their protruding guts and wide waists.

No course but usually if somethings bad for business you edge it out. I wonder how many more tickets have sold for the o this year coz levrone is coming back and making it interesting.

Ultimate outcome would be 1) Rhoden, 2) Heath and kevrone with the gift 6th that Cutler got.

Levrone is tiny though.

Again, 15 pound smaller than when? He was 225 at the 1992 Mr. O, 240 pounds at the 1994 Arnold Classic and 1996 Mr. O and 257 pounds at the 1997 Arnold Classic.

You're now comparing Kevin at his heaviest bodyweights (1997/1998) with today. There is NO WAY he is close to that 249-257 pound mark that he was during that time.

1994 ASC

Kevin was listed at 240 pounds for the 1994 Arnold, but was said that he was only 230 pounds, so he was not large for that show, compared to his 257 pounds at the 1997 Arnold.

This obsession with how much you weigh is why so many bodybuilders look like shit today, forget about the scale and use the mirror and photos as your guideline when dieting for a show.

Thing is we can say whatever guy looks great/shit leading up to the show when in reality the only thing that matters will be how the competitors look onstage individually and next to each other during pre-judging/finals. That whole 24-48 hours through to the show can make a extreme difference between what these guys looked like in the weeks before posting gym,bathroom, street and kitchen shots take prior.

Case in point..Dennis James at his peak would post these awesome fucking shots of himself prior to the olympia, he would look unbeatable, until he got to the stage. The final stuff they do makes all the difference and even Phil in one of his early Olympia appearances ended up having everything go wrong the year or 2 before he won. same with Jay the year he lost to Dexter, the one he should not have won in 2007 and the one with the fucked up bicep. Then 2009

This is the greatest comeback since Arnold in 1980.  Bar none.  Kevin will lose in judging votes but will unanimously win the peoples vote.

Deafened by the cheers for Kevin, Pill Cheat will storm off the stage in a jealous, estrogen-fueled rage, head straight to his phone, log onto Instgram, and bitch about the injustice, Generation Nothing-style.  Meanwhile, Leverone will hit the gym again hard and heavy to prepare for his next contest in 2017 as per his interview with Palumbo.

I don't think this was ever about him winning the O.  I think it's about money for Kevin and just doing well enough to make a statement.

No it isn't. It is a greatest prove this how "sport" is all about durgs: from retirement to Mr. Olympia stage and quite possible top 10 placing in six months prove that this sport is just a competition about who can inject most of chemicals in his body to puff his body up. In the eyes of masses there will be yet less difference between synthol freaks and real bodybuilders, because it is obvious to everybody that you can't do thing like that without using all the fucking chemicals you can pump in you  ;D
