The face-off between titleholder Chris Bumstead and Ramon Rocha Queiroz became the spotlight of the weekend. During the prejudging round, both athletes underwent intense posing routines to gain the upper hand. Despite Ramon Dino’s triumph at the 2023 Arnold Classic and the enhancements he brought to challenge Bumstead on the primary platform, he ultimately fell short, leaving Chris Bumstead to claim his fifth Classic Physique championship.
Urs Kalecinski secured third place. Back in March, he contended with Queiroz during the Arnold Classic and finished second. Breon Ansley made a comeback to the Classic Physique division after deciding to leave Men’s 212, motivated by the increased weight restrictions allowing him to gain seven pounds of muscle mass. Ansley ended up in fourth place, followed by Terrence Ruffin.
The Classic Physique category featured remarkable talent and captivated audiences throughout the night. The results are now released. Below, you will find the complete outcomes along with the official scorecard.
