His upper arm (bicep) looks just tiny in that pic. If his arm were in that position 2.5 weeks out from competition in 1997 or 1998 it would be WAY large than that. Worrying big time. Think he's going to show up in his 220's.
I think he's going to have a photoshoot soon. He'll be unusually full for it (carbed up).
He'll wear bigger shorts (or just shop it later), and he'll take his 2016 Olympia pics. And then, he'll claim an injury. His comeback will be complete, he reached all-time best shape, blah blah, but he won't compete.
no way he'll wreck his legacy with a "DNP" non-finish at the Olympia. He's done an awesome thing with the comeback, but he's too small. If his arms are that small, his legs will be just unacceptable for his legacy to accept.
He'll be the most popular guy at the expo, with big veiny arms, big smiles, and a whole bunch of "Bro, you totally could have beaten Phil if not for that last minute knee injury..."
Levrone was one of the 10 best bodybuilders, ever. He made himself relevant again, which I think was the purpose of this comeback. He'll be in demand for articles, endorsements, guest poses, seminars, etc. He just moved up 2 tiers over Shawn Ray and Flex Wheeler in terms of 2000s guys who are still in the industry. No sense stepping onstage and getting bested by guys who weren't fit to carry his jockstrap ten years ago.
