Brandon Curry became the 15th man to win the Mr. Olympia title. Curry took home $400,000 of a record-setting $1.4 million in prize money this year.

He finished ahead of William Bonac and debutant Hadi Choopan. Curry was seen by many as the favorite for this year’s title, with seven-time winner Phil Heath and defending champion Shawn Rhoden both not competing. Mamdouh “Big Ramy” Elssbiay also missed out on the competition.

The 36-year-old Curry impressed with top-notch conditioning and awesome size, especially around his torso and arms.

Similarly, professional bodybuilder Hadi Choopan, also known as the Iranian Wolf, has stunned the world by claiming the third overall title and the people’s choice award at the 2019 Mr. Olympia competition held in Las Vegas.

By winning the people’s choice award, Choopan dethroned 2018 winner Roelly Winklaar in the 55th Mr. Olympia competition, a weekend-long bodybuilding contest.

William Bonac also won the second title. The fourth and fifth places also went to Dexter Jackson and Roelly Winklaar.

In his first-ever Olympia 2019 posing routine, Choopan started out impressively in the Men’s Open during the Friday night’s prejudging, where he surprised the judges and spectators by standing among the top 4.
