Derek Lunsford is back on top - he won the title of Mr. Olympia 2025!

The Mr. Olympia 2025 finale in Las Vegas delivered exactly the kind of drama that fans love. The battle on the stage was extremely close from the first moment and the favourite was not clear for a long time. Defending champion Samson Dauda came in visibly better shape than last year, but it seemed to cost him some of the fullness in his back. Hadi Choopan, on the other hand, improved and got tougher as the contest progressed, while Andrew Jacked brought his best and most complete career form to date.

In the end though, it was Derek Lunsford who managed to convince the judges the most. His bulletproof "back double biceps" pose during the individual presentation was one of the highlights of the evening. Lunsford brought a combination of size, hardness and detail that was simply unbeatable that night, and deservedly returned to the throne.

Second place went to the ever fighting Hadi Choopan, who once again proved that he is one of the absolute best in the world. Third place went to the great Andrew Jacked, for whom this is a lifetime achievement at Olympia. Defending champion Samson Dauda had to settle for fourth place and Martin Fitzwater finished fifth.
