Yup..... My father met him. Fvckin guy was 400lbs at the time with massive massive arms. He'd eat enough pancakes to feed two families for breakfast.Originally Posted by charles1900
yeah I read that too. RIP big fellow.
Yup, gone way too young. RIP
Guy was a monster
RIP. Not surprised though. I actually thought he died years ago. Huge. But I recall discussing his likely early demise with my friends when Kovacs was in his late 20's and in every magazine talking about his diet and goal to be the biggest bodybuilder in human history. Sad. Guy was the same age I am. Way too young. I think he did achieve his goal though. For a man his height I think he may very well have been the biggest muscular physique ever to exist. True?
Rip.
Heard some weird things about Greg, such as...
- He used to eat 12,000+ kcal offseason
- His favourite method of drying out pre-contest was to drink motor oil.
- He had two people assist him at the gym to load and re-rack his weights because he didn't want to expend energy doing it himself
- He regularly had his wife/partner wipe his ass for him (for whatever reason, maybe he couldn't reach)
Just stuff I've heard over the years... can't confirm any of it. Either way, RIP.

In an interview with Nasser - he said his wife would have to wipe Greg's ass with a towel. He supposedly was in the house when he called her to doit. He also said Greg's wife would go get the phone for him. He wouldn't leave the couch and expend the energy.
Idunno how true all that is but it came from nassers mouth
Well Nasser and Greg did live together for a short period so those things may be true
