And don't forget the hair! He would dream of having Kevin's hair of peace!

You guys keep talking about supplement sales but I don't think that's it. I bet he was offered BIG bucks to do this by the IFBB. This is all people are talking about. From the delusional people who think he will win to the skeptics (like myself) who think everyone has gone crazy.

Even if Kevin looks horrible onstage if he actually goes through with this? I bet he will be the darling of the weekend and nobody will care who wins.

From a pr standpoint this look brilliant short term but if you have to resort to these types of stunts every year it won't be long until it's confirmed this is like wrestling.

U can say all that from a "fans" perspective about Kevin but in Kevin's mind and recent interview not winning a sandow has really got to him, just like Shawn. Kevin points out Phil has 5 and u can def see it got to Kevin. This is from his perspective. Sometimes the cards just isn't in thier favor like flex and Shawn and Cormier should have won one Arnold Classic

Cue in "danimal"

Based on a convo I had last year, I can see why. A lot of those guys feel like the current group sucks and they don't have Sandows while the current group can show up half assed and win. Some were really irritated with how nonchalant the competitors seemed. Maybe Kevin feels like he should come back and show them how it's done. I would be more optimistic if he were ten years younger.

I mean yeah it's not like it was but isn't everything watered down. People win music awards with no talent and can brag they have 50 Grammys while someone like Prince has 7. They won't be better than prince but due to low standards they've got the award count.

I'll give it to him though: Kevin is bringing back the excitement. Even his social media videos are better than some of the current group. His confidence and intensity is pretty inspiring.

It's no wonder he's got the fans fired up. He should grow his hair back though!! I was always a fan with his hair!!

I agree, I grew up in the late 90's with Kevin and seeing Chris and flex, Prince, Gunther, Tito Raymond and ton others train, moved to Texas and even saw Ronnie prep for the 2003 O. Sucks they never got any sandows cause of the timing and era they were in

At least Prince did get 7 Grammys which is a sandow in the bbing world, can't be said about the bbers I mentioned unfortunately

Pill would dream of Kevs structure , aesthetics and swagger of peace!

This.

They don't have the experience to differentiate

Levrone at least got to compete with some of the best, the competition was on another level, the current line up are a joke in comparison, a complete mess.

hahaha I hope this poor delusional fool is not seriously stepping on the Olympia stage this fall destroying his own legacy

this was good enough for 2nd at the olympia in 2000, many believed he should've beaten ronnie

i haven't seen one person argue that bodybuilding is better today than it was back then, so if that body got 2nd in 2000 why can't it get at least 2nd today?

does anybody honestly think kai is a better bodybuilder than Mr. Levrone?

Today it seems to just be about maximum size everywhere without any thoughts for balance or aesthetics.

Kev-Phil-Ramy. Just for the hell of it. Kev wins, but had superior lighting at that Grand Prix show. Show a picture of Ronnie at the same show, which he won.

bailey · « **Reply #61 on:** May 15, 2016, 01:43:54 PM »

That's one small waist on (Ramy) for his size!

bailey · « **Reply #62 on:** May 15, 2016, 01:53:48 PM »

Kai & Phil, with similar lighting and black backround as Kevin at the Grand Prix show. Still I think the lighting was better at Kevin's show. (Lighting & Backround ) make a world of difference!

bailey · « **Reply #63 on:** May 15, 2016, 02:11:07 PM »

Also in the Kev, Phil, Ramy pic I posted. There are subtle differences in the way all three are hitting that shot. By Kevin hitting that transitional pose better than Phil & Ramy by having his arms in closer to his Quads. (Actually a little over them) makes his already huge delts and triceps look bigger. If Phil did not have his arms out so wide, he would have looked wider as well as his triceps and delts looking more noticeable therefore better for him. Kev is the better poser.

Phil will be way more conditioned than Kevin, due to Kevin's 10 year layoff, Phil has been seasoned for 5 years straight and has been training all year! This isn't 1995 it's 2016! Good to see Kevin back but it's just a different game now!

To be honest the hair was the second thing I noticed. Damn!!!

The hair was part of the swag.

I dont like Phils last year shape. But, I have to admit that Kevin has zero chance to beat him.

bailey · « **Reply #69 on:** May 18, 2016, 12:30:20 AM »

Kevin will be sick or injured two weeks out, or relegated to guest posing! Even with the weakest top 6 Mr O lineup ever!!!!

Good Lord. I wonder if he stuffs. Judging by all the factors involved,

I doubt it No wonder dude is so crazy and thinks he can do whatever he wants.

Nobody these days has the hair or the Total package. Even 15 years older than everyone else, Kevin could pull the most women.

Levrone liked Booster Briefs back in the day -

.

They were a popular product in Muscle Mag back in the day.
