The 2025 Arnold Classic continued Saturday morning with its second session of prejudging. The 2025 Arnold Men’s Physique division took the stage for the first time. This session saw former champions looking to add another title to their careers.
Meanwhile, Diogo Montenegro, the reigning champion from last year’s event, returned after Erin Banks missed the competition. Banks, the 2022 winner, was back with a clear goal: to reclaim his title.
Next, Montenegro and Banks led the first callout, joined by Emmanuel Costa and Ali Bilal. As the comparisons began, Bilal found himself standing next to Montenegro in the center of the stage. Later, the same group of four was called out again in the third callout. Montenegro stood between Banks and Bilal for a brief evaluation by the judges.
Finally, Colosseum Strength is on the ground, covering all the action from the 2025 Arnold Classic Pro, sponsored by Pro Am. Below, you’ll find a full breakdown of the Men’s Physique division prejudging.
