Dark Horses

• Giovani Emeka 🇮🇪

• Karol Malecki 🇵🇱

• Mohamed Salah 🇪🇬

Top 5 Breakdown

1️⃣ Mohammed Albagshi 🇸🇦

Albagshi is the favorite for good reason. His conditioning and muscle density are top-tier, giving him the classic 212 aesthetic judges love. Having won the 2024 Arab Pro, he brings confidence and a refined package. Expect him to deliver sharp poses, especially in the front double bicep and rear lat spread rounds.

2️⃣ Francis Allard 🇨🇦

Allard consistently brings an impressive combination of size, symmetry, and conditioning. He is very capable of challenging Albagshi if he nails his presentation. His attention to detail on stage, particularly in transitions between mandatory poses, could make the difference in a tight battle.

3️⃣ Karar Altameemi 🇫🇮

Altameemi is an athletic, well-conditioned competitor who can disrupt predictions if he comes in at peak form. Judges will focus on his midsection and balance, areas where he typically excels. Small tweaks in his posing could push him onto the podium.

4️⃣ Amin Parvaneh 🇩🇪

Parvaneh is solid across the board, with great symmetry and muscle separation. He needs perfect conditioning and confident stage flow to crack the top 3, but his consistency makes him a dangerous contender for the podium.

5️⃣ Yasin Qaderi 🇺🇸

Qaderi blends size with crisp conditioning, particularly in his arms and chest. Minor improvements in posing and overall fullness can make him a real threat in the tight scoring environment of Men’s 212.

Bomert is a dominant force in Classic Physique, combining impressive size with perfect symmetry. His conditioning is consistently sharp, and his posing is polished and confident. Coming off a 1st-place win at the 2024 Polish Pro, he is the clear favorite, with judges likely rewarding his balance and proportion.

2️⃣ Joaquim Camps Angel 🇪🇸

Camps Angel presents a highly aesthetic package with balanced proportions and excellent stage presence. His lean conditioning and smooth transitions between poses make him a serious threat to Bomert. If he peaks perfectly in Prague, he could easily challenge for the top spot.

3️⃣ Michael Daboul 🇦🇪

Daboul has a large yet proportionate frame with strong muscle separation. While slightly less polished than Bomert, his conditioning and symmetry can make him a consistent podium contender. Fine-tuning his posing will be key to climbing higher in the standings.

4️⃣ Damiano Quagliotto 🇮🇹

Quagliotto is an up-and-coming talent with strong aesthetics and a well-shaped physique. Judges will focus on his balance and midsection detail, and if he brings peak conditioning, he can surpass more established competitors and contend for a top 3 spot.

5️⃣ Karol Rogaczewski 🇵🇱

Rogaczewski has solid size and pleasing proportions but must maximize his conditioning and presentation to crack the top 5. He remains a strong contender for minor placings, especially if others falter on stage.
