Just got off email with Zack Khan, he cleared the air on delta9mda’s comments that he was apparently making fun of Nasser in Florida and gave some great, unbiased opinions as well.
On the alleged Nasser-jokes he said he saw the thread and “I can say people take words out of context” and “I would never disrespect any pro.”
He also said that he’s a fan of Nasser’s physique and that he has trained with Dorian but thinks that Nasser deserved at least one Mr. Olympia win against Dorian, and that both Kevin Levrone and Flex Wheeler also deserved one Mr. Olympia win.
I asked Nasser what he thought of Zack and he praised him as well, saying it’s difficult to see any flaws in him and that he was much improved over his last appearance.
So really, anyone who tries to suggest there is anything less than mutual respect between the two is off base. Also, any “Team Zack Khan” member should keep in mind that the man himself said Nasser, Flex and Kevin all deserved an Olympia win.
All in all he seemed like a cool dude from his emails, funny and down to earth. He laughed at the comments on his appearance and said, “I knew I was no Brad Pitt, give a brother some slack!”
