Who Will Win the 2023 Arnold Classic?
With the 2023 Arnold Classic fast approaching, bodybuilders from around the world are preparing to compete for the title.[0] Nick Walker, Mamdouh ‘Big Ramy’ Elssbiay, Samson Dauda, Andrew Jacked, and Patrick Moore are the frontrunners for the Men’s Open division, which comes with a hefty prize of $300,000 for the winner.
Nick Walker, also known as “The Mutant”, is one of the most promising bodybuilders in the sport.[1] After finishing sixth at the Mr. Olympia in 2021, he ended up third in the same competition the following year.[0] The Arnold Classic would be Walker’s first major victory and he’s been preparing diligently for the event, much to the delight of his fans.
Big Ramy, the two-time Mr. Olympia, is also looking to make a return to the Arnold Classic stage.[2] He recently received stem cell therapy to help him prepare his body for the competition.[0] Meanwhile, Samson Dauda, Andrew Jacked, and Patrick Moore have each taken their own unique approach to the event, aiming to make their mark on the bodybuilding world.
Shaun Clarida, who won the 212 division at the 2022 Mr. Olympia, is also planning to make his Open Mr. Olympia debut if he wins the Arnold Classic. He believes he can beat the top three world competitors, which would give him the confidence to compete in the Open division.
Milos Sarcev, a seasoned bodybuilding coach, shared his thoughts on the 2023 Arnold Classic contenders in an interview with Muscular Development. He highlighted Jacked as a potential upset artist and believes Dauda has the potential to challenge Walker for the title.
The Arnold Classic is sure to be an exciting event and the top contenders are looking stronger than ever. Fans of the sport will be eagerly awaiting to see who will come out on top next month.[3]
