He wont

 

[Bio]

Is this video new? He's been retired so long, I would think he's comfortable now. Best of luck to him! It will certainly draw a lot of fans.

He just had a live facebook feed where he said he already signed some kind of contract to compete in the 2016 Mr. Olympia. The feed was a bit choppy though.

I feel like this thread comes up once a year lol.

 

[Gizmo]

Not sure about the whole comeback thing.. But he's looking pretty crazy right now for a 51 year old.

His legs will be an issue. Then again it's Kevin Levrone we're talking about here; guy's got genes passed down directly from Hercules.

Mr Olympia just became 10x more interesting.

Would like to see him compare hand clasped most musculars with heath

 

[Elvia1023]

He says this all the time. It's probably more he has a new product coming out.

 

[Mr OZ]

check his instagram out, it seems pretty to the point

okay . . . I'll bite

Do it then talk about it (Kevin).

Reminds me of a story. I like stories.

Hobey Baker, the most famous college athlete of his time when he was at Princeton,
finished the war with three victories. He'd been commanding a squadron at Toul when
he received orders to go home and was leaving the next day for Paris. He was
flashing the orders around. Don't get in another airplane, they all told him. He agreed
but he was just going to fly down to see his Nancy (wife / girlfriend?) to get some new
pants. When he took off and when his engine quit over the edge of the field he pulled
a fool stunt and tried to turn back. The SPAD stalled and he hit nose down. He split his
head open on the gun butts. One thing they always said was never try and turn back.

 

[Fa Seeshus]

I get your analogy, but just to be historically correct Baker's fiancee had already dumped him and he had requested an extension of his tour, which was denied. Hobey was one of the top flight instructors and knew very well how to crash land a plane, so there is some speculation that his death was a suicide.

But...

Doesn't he need to qualify?

Kevin may be one of if not the single best responder to gear that has ever stood on stage.
