Rafael Brandão has officially withdrawn from the 2022 Arnold Classic!
Author: As you already know from us, one of the biggest bodybuilding competitions will take place at the beginning of March this year, the Arnold Classic. These competitions are one of the second most prestigious shows that bodybuilders can participate in after the Mr. Olympia competition. And because of its prestige, the only way to get into the competition is by invitation from the organizers. They have selected the following competitors for this year's open category:
- William Bonac (Netherlands)
- Rafael Brandão (Brasil)
- Maxx Charles (USA)
- Brandon Curry (USA)
- Samson Dauda (United Kingdom)
- Nathan De Asha (United Kingdom)
- Regan Grimes (Canada)
- Steve Kuclo (USA)
- Cedric McMillan (USA)
- Fabio Giga Rezende (Brasil)
- Justin Rodriguez (USA)
- Mohamed Shaaban (Egypt)
- Brett Wilkin (USA)
- Akim Williams (USA)
However, there are now reports that Brazilian pro Rafael Brandão has withdrawn from the competition. Fitness Volt magazine contacted the organizers of the Arnold Classic who shared the following information:
"He has confirmed to us that he will not be able to participate but still needs to contact the IFBB Pro League offices."
Although this news won't make fans very happy, it's clear that this great competitor has his reasons. Unfortunately, he hasn't made them public yet.
Brandão's win at the Romania Muscle Fest Pro 2021 earned him a ticket to the 2022 Mr. Olympia, which will take place December 6-18, 2022 in Las Vegas.
