Flex was so out of his depth on that stage. :-\ Can't say it was pitiful sight, but tattoos, scars, lumpy arms, wide waist, atrophied forearms and calves leave a sad feeling. Levrone comeback was somewhat entertaining, but Wheeler's is just unneeded.

Trying to decide if he looks better or worse than Kevin

You aren't serious about this are you?  Kevin looks much better from a bodybuilding perspective - bigger, leaner, and certain aspects of his upper body such as his arms and shoulders are actually very close to his prime.  I'm surprised you would say that, ND.  That being said, overall, Flex looks pretty good too.  Those arms though...  :-X

His left calf looks like Wolf's... wtf happened to his calves?

he is a black

 ;D ;D ;D

Flex, once famous for his back as heavy weight competitor, murdered by current top 2 guys in lighter weight (classic) division.

He had them defined and separated in his early years, before the injections and futile attempts to catch up with Yates and Ronnie. Nowadays he has Dennis Wolf-like pegs.
Dude ruined his health and physique.

The tattoos hurt his look a lot, as does the weak forearms and whatever is pumped into his arms. Hamstrings are unusually strong compared to quads, and calves are virtually gone. FLS and other shots look weird because his delts seem to really flatten out. Back is still sorta there.

IMO Kevin looked better because his upper body was basically back to where it was when he retired. Flex's 2003 look (even though a different class) is in another league. Hell even his rushed 2002 prep is far superior, although you can see shades of this look in that (last pic)

His legs look decent from the side. Calves suck, but he still has some hamstring.

What is it with these these ex pros that they think they can reclaim their old bodybuilding glory 10 or more years after they retired?

The body has a hard enough time staying healthy, let alone carrying tons of muscles, as we age. I guess when your entire life is defined by what you did in your 20's and 30's, you keep thinking that's all you are capable of doing for the rest of your life.

Flex is actually pretty good as a commentator. He should run with that
