Who is the better bodybuilder?

Serious discussion please.

My thoughts: I'm with Levrone here. Heath does have a better back, but does not beat Levrone in the pre-injury leg department. I also think Heath's arms dominate TOO MUCH, and even Levrone with his huge arms wasn't dominated by them. I also think Heath's strange clavicles/pecs will never allow him to hit a better front pose than Levrone.

In terms of size they're about the same or what? Wasn't Levrone actually heavier around 98-99?

The question is what did Kevin look like at the same age? Heath hasn't peaked yet. When's he done he just might go down as one of the greatest.

That's speculation/theoretical though. Let's go with what we can see.

And anyways, Levrone was a FREAK even when young.

22-23 years old

25 years old - jump into the 2 minute mark. Heath is IMO not gonna touch that.

why do people always compare heath to Mr. Levrone?

there is no comparison, only a LevrOWNING

Quite a few bodybuilders ... but certainly NOT Heath ... what the fuck are you smoking, Marvin ?

Oh, fuck ... I don't know ... how about Arnold, Sergio, Paul Dillet, Chris Cormier, Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler ... and that's just off the top of my fucking head ! I'd be here all day ... all these guys ( and plenty more ) present / have presented amazing size with amazing condition. Shit, what the fuck are you smoking ?

since phil will probably have a couple of O titles starting in 09 or 10...he will be considered better than kev...as far as the all-time stuff goes.

I was talking about a particular shot...and here you go listing names. The initial comparison was between Phil Heath and Kevin Levrone.

Well, as we all know, judges and placings do not always determine who is best in such a subjective sport. Kevin, Flex, Shawn, and Chris would all blow Heath off the stage.

Phil is the beneficiary of weaker competition.

Then post a few similar pics of bodybuilders like the one I posted of Kevin!

You won't find anyone who looks as ridiculous as he does doing tricep extensions. Dude is freaky.

I don't have the time nor do I have the patience to post pics ( and, no, I'm not backing out ... and no, it's not that I can't find any photos ) ... take the names that I posted earlier and type them into a Yahoo search engine ... and then, presto ... shitloads of pics ... although probably not many doing tricep extensions ( you got me ! ).

The burden of proof falls on you, my friend.
