Athletes to Watch
Fans in attendance should keep their eyes on these contenders:
Matheus Menegate
Matheus Menegate was the runner-up to Gabriel Zancanelli at the 2024 Texas Pro on Aug. 10, 2024. Menegate proved he’s within reach of pro-show gold and has momentum going into this contest. It is easy to see why some experts consider him the favorite to score the win and Olympia qualification.
Jhonne Sousa
Jhonne Sousa ranked third at the 2023 Musclecontest Brazil Pro show but has not stepped back onstage since. This will be his first show of the calendar year. If he made improvements from his most recent showing, he could be in the mix for the win.
Rogerio Felizardo
Rogerio Felizardo surprised fans when he placed third at the 2024 Sur Pro Cup in Buenos Aires, Argentina, at the end of June. That gave him close to seven weeks to make adjustments and apply feedback from the judges. He seeks his first win and Olympia qualification.
Other Notes
This is one of two pro Classic Physique shows this weekend. The other is part of the 2024 Tupelo Pro in Tupelo, MS. The winner qualifies for the 2024 Olympia unless he qualified elsewhere earlier in the season.
