Interestig note on Mr. Kovacs. Recently, at the Arnold Classic, they held a strongman contest. This contest was specifically designed to not give an advantage to strongmen of any particular discipline. In other words, they designed the strength tests to different than any particular lifter would encounter in his specific discipline (powerlifting, strongman, Olympic lifting).
To make a long story short, Kovacs was invited and declined. If he was anywhere near the strongman that he is promoted to be, I would think this would have been the perfect showcase to prove it. Now, they didn't have any Smith machine events :D , so I can see why he may have chosen to decline. That was mean, I guess it just frustrates me a tad that he doesn't ever prove himself if he is what he is claimed to be.

That is interesting. Although who knows, maybe his health was rather poor but seeing as Muscle Tech dumped him, I'd have figured he'd be out for getting his name back in there for something.
Oh well

Why does he need to prove himself to who to you? I dont see why... People doubt me all the time, and i never prove myself, cause if they dont believe me they arent worthy enough to be in my precense.. In other words, he could if he wanted too, but why do it, for what?

For what its worth, I doubt Kovacs has the power MT claims he does either. For the more experienced lifter, Kovacs lies are completely unimportant and should be ignored, however, he might push less experienced lifters to begin juicing.

but you never been a poster boy for a supp compnay claiming to some of the biggest lifts in the world. We would like to see if his adverts are true. IF he did not of claimed to make those lifts, but just make size statements in the magazine, we would not care about his lifts. But if you read a bb mag for a peroid of time, you had these claims about every issue you bought.
its like issac nasser saying he does not want to compete as if he does people think he is on steroids.

They'll have an even more distorted image of what a lifter should be able to put up, and whats really possible, making their lifts seem less
