While talking about the 2023 Olympia and how Walker is preparing for it, Cutler asked him a question. He asked ‘The Mutant’ who he would like to pose with from history. Nick immediately took the ‘Comeback Kid?s’ name. The man who won his third Sandow trophy against Dexter Jackson in 2009 was surprised.
He still asked if Nick would compete with Ronnie Coleman, to which Walker denied, saying that Ronnie would crush him. Then ‘The Mutant’ went on to explain why he would love posing with Jay Cutler and not Arnold Schwarzenegger or Coleman. The 2021 Arnold Classic winner said, ?If I had to pick one like specifically who I look up to the most who I wanted to, you know emulate the most it would be you.? Cutler was flattered and replied, ?That?s pretty cool.?
Walker was always Cutler?s fan while growing up, and now he is forging his legacy in the bodybuilding world. Nick Walker also seems to be confident about his position for the Olympia and answers haters’ questions with swagger.
