This confirmation just in from his home in France from my good friend Olivier Ripert. Edouardo known as Ed Kawak died of a heart attack last Saturday in Beijing, China. He was 47 years old. He was an absolute champion, unbeatable at NABBA winning the Universe on 5 occasions. He and Eddy Ellwood hold the record with 5 Universe titles each. Ed also competed as an IFBB pro with some success. To see the complete list of videos Ed featured in, including some of his greatest victories, please click here. Ed was a great friend of GMV and will be sadly missed.
