""THE FASTEST MAN ALIVE?!
Levrone Claims 4.1-second 40-yarder
By Team FLEX
Kevin Levrone's not content being one of the top bodybuilders of all time, holding more IFBB titles than any other competitor. Now, the Maryland Muscle Machine who moonlights as a rock singer in his band Fulblown, claims to be the fastest man alive. "I'm the fastest man in the world," crowed Levrone, who we think wasn't kidding. "I'll take on [official world's fastest man] Maurice Greene. I'm fast, man."
Levrone said a high school football coach in suburban Baltimore recently clocked him running a 40-yard dash at a time of 4.13 seconds. If true, that does put the muscular rock singer in elite athletic company. "It's true," he insisted. "I'm fast, I tell you. Real fast."
Okay, Kev, you're fast. By the way, FLEX remembers a race between Levrone and fellow IFBB star Chris Cormier, and both impressed with their surprising speed. The two went head-to-head in a sprint on the streets of Zurich, Switzerland, after a Grand Prix show in 1997. While Levrone won the race, though barely, Cormier has always contended that Kevin had jumped out to a false start. "That's not true," Levrone told us this week. "I'm so fast, it just looks like I got a jump. The naked eye can't possibly pick up my explosive starts."
Got it, Kev. When asked if he would be willing to take on Cormier again, Levrone replied: "Hell no. He's too slow. I want to take on the real thing. Bring on Maurice Greene."
Kevin Levrone, a body builder decided one day that he was the fastest man on the planet. All based on a 40 yard dash time of 4.1 seconds, timed (HAND TIMED) by a high school track coach.
Levrone time and time said he "wanted the real thing", a race with the former world record holder Maurice Greene.
THe challenge was ultimately answered by Dwain Chambers, whom at the time was the second fastest sprinter in the world (ranked number 2 behind tim montgomery in 2002) and had a personal best in the 100m at 9.87 seconds, which was a European record a the time.
Not only does Keven Levron lose in this 60m race, he gets blown out. Chambers runs an easy 6.64 seconds without track spikes, during the off season (when he is at his worse shape). Levrone ran 7.8 seconds, a time which most high school males and some high school females can easily beat.

Nach eigenen Aussagen war er auch einer der schnellsten Männer der Welt, oder interpretiere ich jetzt seine Aussagen falsch?
