Although Samson Dauda has been victorious in earning the title of Arnold Classic this year, he was not in his best form last year. He started his bodybuilding career back in 2014; however, it wasn’t until 2022 that he participated in Mr. Olympia.

Dauda’s journey in 2022 Mr. Olympia

In 2022’s IFBB Pro League, Men’s Bodybuilding Open, Dauda got left behind the top 5 just by one rank. Instead, he grabbed the sixth position. Winning $40,000, he ranked right after Mamdouh Elssbiay, Big Ramy of Egypt, who had been the Mr. Olympia winner previously. Samson sets quite high standards for his debut in the race, accomplishing achievements that are really hard to attain.

The 2023 Arnold Classic Winner, Samson, chiefly gets noticed because of his magnificent body build-up at the turn of this year. Although he missed the crown of last year’s Mr. Olympia, both critics and fans are keeping tabs on this monster bodybuilding beast. Only time will tell if he can snatch the trophy from Hadi Choopan.
