“THE TOP 6 SHOULD BE REALLY NERVOUS”: KEVIN LEVRONE ON THE REAL REASON FOR HIS COMEBACK

by GI Team Published on Sep 12, 2016

kevin levrone coming for the top 6 header“He’s coming for you guys…”

The above quote was spoken by Dave Palumbo of RX Muscle on the return of bodybuilding legend and IFBB hall of famer, Kevin Levrone. Palumbo states that he believes not only will Kevin Levrone break the top #6 but will in fact bring home the Sandow at this year’s Mr. Olympia.

That’s a very bold prediction for an always a bridesmaid but never a bride (IFBB runner-up 1992/1995/2000/2002) Mr. O contestant with a 13 year lay off, at the tender age of 52. One thing we can agree on, if he does take it, it will be the greatest comeback in bodybuilding history.

But before we go into the future, we must go into the past. We need to discover what driving force would make the all but settled veteran want to go back to the “war zone” that is competitive bodybuilding.

“I’m in a war zone right now, when I say a war zone, it doesn’t matter what goes on around me, right now I want to suffer, I want to feel the pain, I want to feel what it feels like to go…without.”

In the video below, Kevin Levrone reveals the reasons he decided to comeback and the mentality that keeps him going despite the naysayers.

Whether you agree with the comeback or not, you have to admit this guy is motivational. But what’s even better is that he’s not just talk, he actually leaves the video because his rest period was up and he had to get back to training. If that’s not admirable, nothing is.

Check out class act Kevin Levrone at Mr. Olympia 2016 this weekend (Sept 16th and 17th) at the Las Vegas Expo!

Do you think Kevin Levrone will win this year?
