In a recent video\u00a0call answering\u00a0a question \u201cWill he ever walk again\u201d<\/em>\u00a0by Muscular Development\u2019s<\/em> Ron Harris Ronnie reveal:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know if that\u2019ll [Walk] ever happen because I\u2019ve had too much damage done to my body from all these surgeries a lot of it has to do with the way the surgeon performed the surgery and the\u00a0surgeon that I\u2019ve had the last three\u00a0surgeries been really bad and caused a lot of damage to my body so I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ll be able to walk\u2026.<\/p>\n

but I\u2019m gonna give it my best shot but I think if that surgeon had to perform these surgeries right then I would have been walking a long long time ago!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ronnie talks about the Surgeon\u2019s questionable surgical procedures and also reveal\u00a0the huge cost of his last three surgeries which was around $2 Million.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cJust the way he [Surgoen] did everything and\u00a0performed everything it was like he was\u00a0kind of doing these surgeries to make money\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery surgery I\u2019ve had done was like $300,000 to $500,000 so the last three surgeries I had almost spend $2 million dollars!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Check out the following video courtesy of\u00a0Muscular Development<\/a>:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Just imagine the pain of this legend\u00a0who\u2019s spent much of his life as a 300lbs mass monster pumping iron every day and now being confined to hospitals and not able to even walk properly after spending huge some of his hard earned money!<\/p>\n
