Who was the greatest Nationals Champion EVER?
« on: February 28, 2008, 07:39:59 PM »
I'd argue Kevin Levrone because he DOMINATED the Nationals and then went immediately into the pro ranks and OWNED the IFBB.

What do other people think???

This dude looks good in that pose, the question is what happens when he isnt crunched and tries to do a DB or lat spread. Not to mention stand to someone 5" taller.

the best by FARRRR was LEE HANEY. have we forgotten what a run he was on throughout his entire career???if there's a nationals champ that has dominated, it's been LEE HANEY.......he's not my favorite though......

Judge for yourselves:

1991

Junior Nationals - NPC, HeavyWeight, 2nd
Nationals - NPC, HeavyWeight, 1st
Nationals - NPC, Overall Winner

1992

Chicago Pro Invitational - IFBB, 3rd
Grand Prix England - IFBB, 2nd
Grand Prix Germany - IFBB, Winner
Night of Champions - IFBB, Winner
Olympia - IFBB, 2nd
