by Eddie Overdyke Views: 8
What an unforgettable week it’s been as we celebrated the 60th Olympia – truly the most incredible Olympia ever! We crowned three new champions, watched six defend their titles, and witnessed two athletes reclaim their crowns. It was a weeklong celebration that brought the entire bodybuilding community together, showcasing some of the most extraordinary physiques we’ve ever seen on the Olympia stage.

We also saw two legendary champions announce their retirements, marking the end of remarkable careers. The excitement culminated Saturday night when Samson Dauda shocked the world, claiming the coveted title of Mr. Olympia in one of the most thrilling finishes in recent history.
