Did he ever admit this was one hundred percent bullshit?
He said he filed a police report. Obvious no shred of proof was ever found to substantiate this. It was pretty much universally agreed that this was an lie. And a bad one. But did he ever clarify his story?
I've never heard him say anything more about it, but some of the other pros laugh about it now as bullshit.
Flex skips over it in his autobiography, not one word about the 97 Olympia. From the sound of it in the book, he was just partying too hard off endorsements and the Arnold Classic money that year.
He also makes a big thing about the house in that photo above being #26,000 square ft including the grounds, and how much he loved it, but wishes he kept some money aside instead of buying it, and the cars, etc.....
Also he talked about breaking his neck in 95 and Dr. Dre and Lou Ferrigno visiting him tin the hospital. Lou brought him chocolates, and got weepy when he saw Flex all busted up.
