Moreover, to boost their morale, he shared a triumphant video of himself winning the Arnold Classic trophy for the second, despite facing setbacks. “Be $100,000 richer. He’s the champion. 1996. He’s the champion,” one could hear the host saying in the video. But this wasn’t just a stroll down memory lane; it was an ode to a man whose resilience turned setbacks into stepping stones.

He won,” further presenting Levrone with the coveted trophy.
