The 2023 Musclecontest International Sao Paulo Pro is one of four bodybuilding contests taking place this weekend (May 20). This show served as a Mr. Olympia qualifier for the 212 Bodybuilding category.
Athletes currently have until October 9 to secure their respective invitations to the upcoming Olympia competition, taking place November 2-5 in Orlando, Florida. Unlike last year’s calendar, IFBB Pro bodybuilders have fewer months to guarantee passage to the prestigious event.
As it stands, Esdras da Paz Alves will aim to take gold home for his native country of Brazil. However, to lay claim to this weekend’s title, he’ll have to get through 212 powerhouse Christyan Gomz, who finished fifth at the 2021 Musclecontest Brazil event.
