Arnold Classic in the UK? In 2021 YES!

Arnold Classic, Arnold Classic Australia, Arnold Classic South America, Arnold Classic Africa and Arnold Classic Europe. That's 5 competitions held so far that bear the name of the legendary Arnold Schwarzenegger in their title!

Eddie Hall, the former British professional strongman who became the World's Strongest Man at the 2017 World' s Strongest Man competition, dropped some absolutely brilliant information yesterday! Namely, he stated that next year, on October 1-3, 2021 to be exact, he will be hosting a multi-sport event called Arnold Sports Festival UK!

Eddie stated that he never imagined in the slightest that he would one day become Arnold Schwarzenegger's business partner, but as part of the planned Arnold Sports Festival UK, it will happen!

Eddie went on to talk about how strongmen, powerlifters, MMA fighters, boxers and crossfitters will all get their space at this multi-sport festival, with many more sports to come.

Official sources have not yet commented on bodybuilding. However, Kevin Grech of Evolutionofbodybuilding.net has let it be known that he has already spoken to the organisers of the Arnold Sports Festival UK and has confirmation from them that bodybuilding will be there!

The big unknown so far is under what organisation will this professional competition be held?
Will Jim Manion's IFBB Professional League be behind the competition, as they are for the North American Arnold Classic, Arnold Classic Australia and Arnold Classic South America? Or will the competition be held under the patronage of IFBB International Federation Rafael Santonja, like the Arnold Classic Africa and Arnold Classic Europe?
