Yes guys—Arnold week is basically here, so me and Joe jumped back on the Fantom Podcast to run through our Arnold Classic 2026 predictions. The lineup is exceptional from top to bottom, Derek’s not in it this year, and the prize money is wild—$750,000—so you already know everyone’s coming in trying to make a statement. We talk about the main names: Andrew Jacked, Hadi Choopan (and the noise around him), Martin, Nick Walker, Brandon Curry, plus a few dark horses like Anthony Williams and Muhammad Hassan. The big question is simple: is Hadi at his all-time best enough to beat Andrew at his all-time best? I break it down pose by pose—front shots I’m leaning Andrew because he’s the bigger, rounder, more statuesque guy, and his structure is just dominant. From the back I still edge Andrew overall, but I can see why people might give Hadi the back lat spread because it looks more “boxed off” and complete. Then it gets spicy with the rest of the top six—Nick needs redemption after bombing at the Olympia, Martin’s always a dark horse if he nails it, and you can never rule Brandon out because when he’s on, his physique is one of my favourites in the game.
