Looks awesome there.... no obvious weak points.

Nipples sit funny on pecs, kind of a weak point

if that's his most stand-out weakpoint, he's looking great

He wasn't sick there. He was actually healthy there.
This is sick. Sick in his heart and mind:

And one nipple has completely melted away, the other on his abs.

Believe it or not there are decent shots of him from 2004. ASC he was actually in good shape for the prejudging... looked way better than the finals.

Poor guy. Muscletech used him and abused him.

I saw it live on TV. Kovacs was never in good shape at this contest. He looked like he was about to drop dead during the prejudging. He was sweating so much, the helpers on stage had to stand next to him with water and a towel every few minutes.

Bob Chick has good structure.

By "good shape" I mean condition, which by his standard was decent. But he was flat, depleted and bloated. He looked way worse at the Toronto pro, IMO.
-
He's only 6'2?? I figured He would be like 6'5 atleast!
Bob must be really short
BB... the "sport" of the midgets. it really is
-
Yeah Kovacs is 6'2'', proves how much the other guys overinflate their heights.
-
so what's Bob 5'7?
-

There's a reason there are no weak points.
Since Kovacs didn't waste time wiping his own ass, he was able to train that much more. While Titus was wiping, Kovacs was curling. All about time management.

Wicked Wide Waist Of Peace

How is he looking now?

He died back in 2013.

I used to see Kovacs on and off at Monster Gym during the summer he was training and won the Canadians. He was a freak.
I was in Bob Weatherill's(yes the same Bob DJ claims he would look like if he took the same gear) office in the gym doing a nutritional consult that same summer when Greg dropped by for a few minutes to chat with him. Guy seemed nice and was funny sarcastic, like he always had a joke he was holding off telling.
Like Fortress said in the past, I think he and Bob Kennedy got fucked by the MT crowd when building their business -

Shredded to the bone 24/7

Weatherill is a great guy. One of my early local heroes.
And yes, Kovacs (and to a lesser extent, Kennedy) got screwed by MuscleTech and its owner, Paul Gardiner. Deplorable. Paul should commit suicide. Garbage human.
-
so what's Bob 5'7?
He used to say he was a legit 6 feet tall but due to a back injury he's now about 5'10" 1/2 wearing shoes
WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH TA NA KA
-
Kovacs with his 27 inch arms.

Not sure about Kovac I think he was listed as 6'5" or 6'6" ...
Paul Dillet is 6'1" but Joe Weider "Sold him" in his publication as 6'3" tall
WooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Ta NA KA

I had a very different opinion of him. My sister in law had a cousin whose friend told he spoke to a guy who said he was very rude for his 3 kids and wife. But only after the Celltech loading phase.

I've always remembered kovacs being listed at 6'2". Only 6'5" guys I'm aware of are Lou and some German fella. Then you have Quincy Taylor at 6'3" and some other guy I'm forgetting

Are you saying he was arrogant and a dick to everyone, including his family...? Sounds like he could have used some time in rehab....
-
Not really super familiar with the Kovacs tragedy. Obviously he went past some sort of tipping point, but there are shots of him where his waist looks reasonably under control - earlier in his career, obv.

Presumably he was on some monster stack that's been covered on here before, so I'm off for a search.....
-
How is he looking now?
From what I hear he's RIPped to the Bone.
-
The dude was obsessed with knowing what and how much everybody else was taking and making sure he was taking double. 20cc at a time in each glute or running into a dealer who had some masteron at some gymnwhile doing ban appearance and buying and shooting 20amps in a burger king bathroom just because.
Whole goal was to get bigger bigger bigger and movingbasnmuch weight as possible. 3000lb leg presses built those legs. Compare them to somebody who "only" presses 1200 and who's quads andnlegs actually look like a bbers.

Lou was never a legit 6'5". He WAS 6'4" legit. Today at 65 years old and having had hip replacements, he's between 6'2" and 6'3".

I've been in the company of the biggest of the big, and believe me, Kovacs was simply inhumanly gigantic.
I stood in a smallish washroom while Greg gave me and Paul Gardiner a preview of his physique, as he was beginning his prep for the Canadian Nationals, weighing 385, and he was NOT fat. True, his ab wall was titanic, but the man's sheer muscular bulk was something the likes I haven't seen since.
There was zero chance he would live a long life.
Words cannot express the muscular size of "prime" Kovacs.

I can well believe you.
Unfortunately for him all that immense size didn't come across
On a pro bodybuilding stage - where it looked like his legs & arms
Lacked enough size - plus that huge gut / waist area - must have
Been nigh on 50lbs of his Bodyweight in that area alone.
He must of had the bone thickness of an elephant.
-
Kovacc had some serious traps.
Bob is over 5'10
-
That's why detail is important in bbing. Look at a pic of Dexter or Flex Lewis or Flex Wheeler by himself and they look 280lbs andn6ft tall. Now look at kovaslcs and he looks 220lbs at whatever it.. 5'9" or whatever... No detail and just sheer size may work wearing clothes next to others but not in bbing
-
That's why Franck was 3 times M.Olympia and in the top 4 until 1983.

He's a perfect example of receptor burnout

Burnout? The dude weighted nearly 400lbs. His receptors still worked..steroids don't shape.muscle. they build it.
-
'97 NOC and the oil abuse is prominent....

Rare pics from 2004 ASC
-
2001 and I believe this was the show that one pic that said "Kovacs withdrew during the first round" originated from.

20cc's? I can not believe that. Let's get serious.
