Do the math if someone is 5’9/5’10 like you said and the other is 6’2 who do you think is larger?

Not talking about aesthetics just pure mass here

Paul dillett and Quincy Taylor are more impressive than Vic “overrated” Richards

Even art Atwood

Dude, height has nothing to do with overall mass. I know a guy who is 6'4" and weighs like a buck 30 and I know another guy who is 5'5" and 260 pounds. My question still stands. Who was larger? (NOT taller)

Judging from pics I’d say he is looking 6’2.5” and those arms in that pic look around 24”.

Again, they were measured in the video I posted at around 25 3/4".

I was standing off to the side when this pic was taken (I’m quite certain). That evening, we ate at a steak house.

(I cannot be sure as the whole timeline around that year is hazy.)

P.S. We lifted that weekend. Nasser stood on the scale in the changeroom. He was a few pounds over 315 and within 20 pounds of stage-type condition.

Beside Kovacs he appeared smallish.

Let that sink in.

No offense but I'll take legit pics of KNOWN bodybuilders standing next to Kovacs of which I provided over your word of your own claimed height and what you're guessing his height to have been based on how you feel he stacked up against you. I don't know you from anywhere and most guys like to make themselves out to be larger and taller than they are by lowering the height of bigger/taller guys. I'll let all the pics I provided of Greg having at least 4" on Nasser, at least 2" on Dillet and being 1-1.5" shorter than 6'4.5" Sean Allan sink it over your eye witness statement, thank you.

He's given 2 height listings here of 6'2". One when he was 21 and one when he was 33. If he was only 6'2" then Paul Dillet is NOT 6'1" when you compare them both to Sean Allan. I still say he was closer to 6'3" but just claimed 6'2" flat. Remember he has been also described as 6'4" and 6'5". He TOWERED everybody.

You do realize that most pros fuck with tapes in pictures right?there are what 8” showing on the inside of arm?and that is accounting for curve so add 8” to other side and maybe 3-4” on top and bottom and you have 22-24”,with his height and size I’ll give him 24”.

We are talking about bbers here..... so it does matter not reg 6’4 guys

Sean allen vs lee priest is a good example

That 5’5 guy you know likely looks hideous at that weight and it’s almost impossible to find someone weighing 130 at 6’4, that’s not NORMAL at all

Nah the 5'5" guy's a security guard/bouncer and looks like a badass. He could stand to lose a good 20 pounds, but he still does not look out of proportion. He carries the weight well. The 130 pounds 6'4" guy looks awkward.

Ummm...
Why are we talking about a dead drug addict?
He was an obese drug addict who died prematurely-
Why is he occupying any space between any ones ears?

No one at 5'5 with muscles looks badass LOL
Infact no one at 5'5 without muscles looks badass either ... Im guessing youre short yourself.

What was Kovacs like as a person?

Huh? I use Nasser as comparison. My post you quote didn’t make any notion of my using my stature to illustrate anything. As far as commenting I was (possibly) there, that was just to illustrate I was, you know, there, and, again, El Sonbaty, who was over 300, appeared small next to Greg.

Slow it down when you’re reading. Better to comprehend.

He was always a decent fella with me. He wasn’t charismatic, but he was of an even temperament. I feel badly for his fate, even though it was of his own orchestration.

And no question he was screwed royally by Paul Gardiner/MuscleTech.
