Fans were flabbergasted by his third-place finish as they wrote, “The Top 3rd of world.” While praising a few suggested, “If only he had more size, god he would destroy this physique class.” Fans eagerly wanted him to win the Olympia. They advise that Kalecinski possesses impressive qualities such as aesthetics and posing ability. But if Kalecinski were to increase his muscle mass, he would dominate the competition even further. Similarly, “Good athlete but the impression he gets is more worried about Ramon’s defeat than his victory and that brings down his image” Amidst praise, one person criticizes Kalecinski for appearing more concerned about Ramon’s loss than his win.
Urs Kalecinski’s posing routine at the 2024 Arnold Classic was more than just a display of muscles; it was a work of art that left spectators in awe and earned him well-deserved recognition as the Best Poser. Do you think he would win this year’s Olympia or Chris Bumstead would remain the champion?
