“This Guy Beats CBum”: Genetically Gifted French Bodybuilder’s Comparison to Chris Bumstead Leaves Fans Divided

Chris Bumstead is one of the greatest bodybuilders of the present times. His exquisite physique has left fans in awe of his stature. Such has been his impact on the bodybuilding world that netizens believe he is responsible for bringing back the trend of the aesthetic physique. The champion has stood unbeatable for the last four years in the Classic division of the biggest bodybuilding contest. Despite competing with a torn bicep in 2022 Mr. Olympia, no one came close to dethroning him. However, netizens have found someone who might be a tough opponent for Cbum.

Recently, a 26-year-old French bodybuilder has been going viral on the internet for his genetics. A YouTuber claimed to netizens that he believes the bodybuilder could potentially beat Cbum in the future. Fans took to the comments section to share their thoughts on the matter.

The bodybuilder who stands a chance against Chris Bumstead

Recently, Youtuber Connor Sinann posted a short video talking about the bodybuilder Stephane Matala. Matala is a French bodybuilder whose Instagram bio reads that he is on his “road to Olympia.” In the short video, Sinann says that he hasn’t seen genetics as good as that of Matala in a long time. He revealed that owing to Matala’s genetics, he believes that Matala would be able to beat CBum in a few years.

Sinann further added that he could “definitely see that possibility.” Matala’s physique reminded Sinann of the veteran bodybuilder Mike Mentzer because of his arms and forearms. He then asked his viewers, if Matala was in the current Olympia lineup, what position he would have achieved?

While the viewers agreed that Matala indeed has good genetics, they stood divided on the debate of him beating CBum. Let’s have a look at what fans said.

A fair comparison or a far-fetched one?

Comparing the two bodybuilders, one fan wrote, “The only things this guy beats cbum on is arms and possibly shoulders. Cbum has a narrower waist, bigger legs, wider lats, and a thick chest.” Agreeing, another fan added, “Bro his arms are so insanely full for his frame, yet they don’t overpower his chest because that’s also massive, this guy is definitely good competition for cbum.”

However, taking note of the lights, a fan refuted, “Lightning makes a lot of diference so comparing him to cbum Is wild for me😅.” Another fan added, “CBum is literal perfection from head to toe. The man was blessed with godlike genetics.” Complimenting Cbum’s stage presence, a fan commented, “They all got good genetics until there on stage with cbum.” Another fan agreed, “Everyone’s an olympian till they step on stage with cbum.”
