The 2026 212 Olympia took place during Olympia Weekend in Las Vegas from September 24 to 27. The winner was set to be decided on Friday, September 25, with the category’s main event scheduled for 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time. This meant that fans in cities like Los Angeles and Las Vegas could follow the competition in the evening, while viewers in Houston, Chicago, Miami, New York, and other locations in the Eastern Time Zone had to tune in later due to the time difference. For Hispanic bodybuilding fans in the United States and around the world: here you can find out the winner as soon as the IFBB Pro League confirms the final results from the Olympia stage.
The 212 Olympia remains one of the most competitive bodybuilding divisions because athletes must make the 212-pound weight limit while presenting elite muscularity, symmetry, conditioning, and stage presence. Keone Pearson enters the competition as the reigning champion after winning his third consecutive title in 2025, while former titleholder Shaun Clarida is also part of the qualified field. The lineup includes strong Latin American representation, led by Mexico’s Juan Aleman, Chile’s Felipe Isaac Fierro Lobos, Colombia’s Esteban Fuquene, and Brazilian athletes Vitor Alves Porto de Oliveira, Lucas Garcia, and Felipe Moraes.
