overrated. 

long neck. lackluster back double bi.

says the guy that had mike francois on his top 10 bodybuilder list ::)

one person thinking Mr. Levrone is overrated is enough to make him the most underrated in history

he was the 90's best version of mass with class

my personal favorite was the 92 NOC

In my book '95 showed the best of Kevin Levrone


There was this great shot. Kind of half way lunge with twisting torso back/bi shot, can't seem to find it tough...

Kevin's best was 95. Prior to 95 he didn't have the density and muscle maturity. And after 95 his legs went down in size a lot.

His best was in the year 2000

He had the best combination of mass and conditioning that year, in 1997,98 and 99 he was soft in comparison

True.  Kevin was rather puffy for a few years.  It actually started at the 1996 Arnold.

The only trouble with his 2000 shape is that his quads were nowhere near what they'd been early in his career.  Alnassak is crazy, trolling and/or blind to say Kevin should've won all those Olympias, but Kevin was definitely awesome head-to-toe in the early to mid-90s. 

I think my favorite Kevin physique is from the 1994 Olympia.  He was not as shredded as in 1992, but his back had filled out a LOT and his legs were great.  Maybe he could've beaten Ronnie in 2002 with that body  ???

Its ironic because on the way up to the 2000 Olympia (M3) he said he was able to train legs heavy again unlike previous years due to his injury.
Dont agree with 1994, he was just more complete and polished in 2000.

Honestly, babe, in which video does he look better?

I know the 2000 video is too blurry.  That's not my fault  :D  But it is clear Kevin's legs were better in '94, and he was every bit as ripped if not moreso.  He might've had more upper-body "size" in the 2k vid, but like I said, it's not clear if that's quality size or just that Escilene (sp?) puffiness.

I still think Kevin hit has best shape in the mid-nineties, before 1996.  After that, he chased the size game too much; and when he got hurt, he lost too much Levronenese in his legs to be the Kev we all know and love  ;D

Kevin's legs weren't small in 99




Personally I'd prefer his 99 olympia look if I could pick one.   252 lbs at 5'9.

2000! Holds his own against an absolutely MASSIVE Ronnie, still gets dwarfed really, but not in the arms/delts/waist-slimness department!

Well, first of all I would like to say that Kevin Levrone is my best bodybuilder ever and I don’t see any one close to him..
I really like his all look since he turned pro until he quit and if I were a judge in all of his Mr. Olympia contests I would give him first no doubt  ;D

I honestly do think that he is the official winner of Mr. Olympia in the years of 92, 95, 97, 98, 00 and 02  ::)

93** should have gone to Flex Wheeler  ;)
94** should have gone to Shawn Ray  ;)
96** should have gone to Shawn Ray  ;)
01** should have gone to Jay Cutler  ;)

I would like to see your comments on that ,and the year which was Kevin Levrone at his best (he was always best)..?  :)

For most conditioned I would pick 92   ::)

For size I would pick 99  ::)
 

For both condition and size I would pick 98  ::)
 


So you're saying Dorian didn't deserve not ONE Olympia?

That 2000 video doesn't do justice to Kevin at all (Unless you are implying that Kevin had pink skin in that contest).
I have the 2000 Olympia DVD, Kevin may of lost leg size but they were still in proportion with his upper body.
Fact is he was very dry in that contest, dryiest since the 93 ASC and 92 Olympia. (something we're not accustomed to seeing Kevin at that size)

Here is your evidence Miss Demeanour  ;)





2000 Olympia review by John Hansen (Natural Mr Olympia)

 2nd Place - Kevin Levrone. Kevin surprised everyone, including myself, by placing second to Ronnie Coleman. After placing 4th for the last four years (1996-1999), I didn't even expect Kevin to be in the top five. His motivation and desire seemed to be lagging these last few years and, in fact, Kevin didn't even commit to competing in the Olympia until August of this year.

Kevin has been searching for the right bodyweight to compete at these last few years. Sometimes, he shows up huge and thick but lacking in definition (as he did at the '96 Arnold Classic and the '98 Olympia) and other times he shows up with more definition and refinement but is smaller than usual (as he did at the '99 and '00 Arnold Classic and the '99 Olympia). The problem with the lighter look that he displays is that Kevin loses size in his torso (his chest and back) which makes it harder for him to defeat bodybuilders such as Coleman and Flex Wheeler.

This year, Kevin achieved his best condition ever by showing up dry and hard but still retaining the fullness and size of his pecs and lats. The result was a well-earned second place in the biggest contest in the world.

Kevin's arms and legs are still extremely freaky and he showed great size throughout his physique. He was rock hard and displayed striated glutes along with ripped hamstrings. His upper body was also hard as stone highlighted by his out of this world delts. This was the best that Kevin Levrone has ever looked!!

 :P

1992 was his best look, he wasnt as thick through the back but his overall balance was something else.

The European tour of 1997 is where I feel Kevin brought his best combo of mass and conditioning.
