Hey sick, must be hard to know that you are bigger than your idol :-)

This will never happen to me fortunately!

But joke aside, his peak is what counts. Nothing else. And we all know how good he looked.

LOL that was a good one ah ah ah
But being serious it's hard to think that a guy which is an inspiration of a type of physique i battle in the gym to achieve,looks like horsecrapp now but we have also to realize as a fans that he moved on from bodybuilding and he is now living what seems to be an fun,healthy life,more power to him...

This video is perfection for me,even more that 2002 or 99 video...

and why do you say so?

It would be great to have reasons from you that justify your stand

You know what I think, Levrone choose a different path of life. People ridiculed him, and all that other BS they talk about him. People love to forget what Levrone did for the sport. Now he sacrificed his body to become an actor and nobody respects that. We sacrifice everyday to do what we wanna do and get criticised for it. Respect the guy for what he did and leave it at that.

**SkippiGRoid** · 06-20-2008, 02:02 PM

i would like to see a lot of these guys in fist fights. i bet with some training they could kick some serious ass

this one is slightly different from others, more emotional perhaps?
But i think it catches the essence of Levrone the man more than anything else.

**whosane** · 06-20-2008, 04:02 PM

Seeing him now makes me wonder if the thing that he has one of the best genetics in the world was just a hype.

Nah I dont think it was hype. He has the type of body that is super-responsive to training, and I guess gear too, but in large part it was the fact that he could "grow into" contest shape instead of bulking huge in the offseason and cutting down for the show.

Bottom line, Levrone = badass.

now this is what bodybuilding is all about, the song fits so perfectly "take these dreams and make them mine"

an uncrowned olympian imo, i remember seeing an NPC competition with ronnie coleman, flex wheeler, and kevin levrone........... you would have never guessed ronnie would be the mr. O, and kevin levrone pwned both of them

^^^ the best version....he was truly the best. Anybody read his article on bodybuilding.com? He was spitting some real motivational stuff.... Here's a quote from it:

"Just be FREE. Be free to be who you are. When you are free, that is where your art lives - where freedom is."

**Captain Sagara** · 06-21-2008, 12:00 AM

This tells it all about his state of mind on how worthless would be for him to do more olympias,even if he was the best night after night...

KL: Well, I think I came in second to Ronnie because it wasn't meant for me to win the contest. What I mean by that is that some things cannot be cultivated, no matter what I want and no matter how hard I train. What is going to happen is out of my control. I believe that spiritually, nothing happens by mistake.

What's going to happen is predestined to already happen, so there isn't a whole lot that I could do. I've trained for so many shows, and four times I've gotten second.

Yup, when i read that (from the article posted above) i was like wow....the words of a truly inspirational man....

...he sure did give Ronnie a run for his money in 02 olympia. Embarrassingly, his posing routine for that show gave me goose bumps....He was really on it that night....he knew it....the crowd knew it.....shyt even ronnie knew it. Infact Ronnie looked hella nervous that night.

Bob competed at that show,he said on his thread that everybody in that night knew,Levrone was the clear winner...But judges were like 50 feet away or something judging that year...WTF???

Bob loves to exaggerate I guess... Levrone could have won, but Ronnie's win all in all can't be seen as a wrong decision especially when you think about the fact that Ronnie had better legs and a better back.

But I have to agree, Ronnie was not as confident as for example one year later when everybody knew that he was the best.

2002 was closer than any other Mr.O year during Ronnie's reign.

But Coleman still won fair.

I agree the win could have been either way but if you analyse the total package,Levrone was slighly better...Either decision was acceptable really...

Yah well its all a matter of taste couldve been called either way. I prefered Levrone and i think he could have dont a lot more for the sport his physique was massive and eye pleasing.

^^^ i agree, but also think that in order to get on top u gotta really knock the king off his throne. I think Levrone looked better overall but he didn't give ronnie the 10 count knockout punch....now if levrone didn't do his usual off cycle thing and really worked that back a bit more then he would have put Ronnie to sleep....Deep sleep

Yeah you know, unfortunately, Levrone wouldn't have had too much time to do "great things" for the sport because if Levrone had won, Coleman would have EASILY taken it back in 2003.

**Jamps** · 06-21-2008, 12:52 AM

^^^what year was coleman at his best?

But actually in 2002 his back looked the best,ever looked...

For many, 2003 ^^

So, no matter who would have won in 2002, Coleman would have won in 2003 either way, he was just too much ahead of the competition:

Levrone couldn't hang with THIS.

**Jamps** · 06-21-2008, 01:36 AM

.....levrone couldn't hang? [insert LoL pic]

....if levrone would have changed his head game and said fuk teh music and focus only on bodybuilding (no shrinkage) then i think he'd be game.

But damn ronnie was on it that night....they must have had good lights that night
