2026 Olympia Men’s 212 Results & Prize Money — Keone Pearson Clinches 4th Title

Joe Weider’s 2026 Olympia Fitness & Performance Weekend touched down in Las Vegas from September 24-27. Men’s 212 bodybuilding finals began at 6:00 pm (PDT) inside the Orleans Arena. After an energized posedown, Keone Pearson claimed his fourth consecutive 212 Olympia title! 

Men’s 212 bodybuilding remains one of the most exciting divisions in the IFBB Pro League. Competitors boast granite muscle density and freaky conditioning, making it a fan favorite. Throughout the finals, Pearson showcased a new level of detail in his back double biceps pose; his 3D rear delts turned it into a lights-out shot. 

Pearson’s aesthetics and Clarida’s freak factor clashed, turning the finals into an all-out war. Clarida brought a bigger, fuller package, garnering comparisons online to a ‘mini Ronnie Coleman.’ Lucas Garcia pushed into title contention and impressed during his individual routine. Keone Pearson ultimately earned first place, bringing arguably his all-time best. Lucas Garcia finished runner-up, and Shaun Clarida claimed third place.
