The 2026 Detroit Pro took place on March 14 in Detroit, Michigan as part of the IFBB Pro League professional bodybuilding season. The contest was an official qualifier for the 2026 Mr Olympia, giving winners in each division a direct place at bodybuilding’s biggest event.
The show featured two professional divisions:
• Men Open Bodybuilding
• Classic Physique
Athletes from different countries competed on stage with the goal of winning the contest and securing their Olympia qualification early in the season.
Mohamed Foda Wins Men Open Bodybuilding
The Men Open Bodybuilding division was won by Mohamed Foda. His physique stood out during the judging rounds thanks to strong muscle size, conditioning, and overall balance.
Judges evaluated competitors during both prejudging and finals. After the final comparisons, Foda was awarded first place and earned qualification for the 2026 Mr Olympia.
Earlier in the season, Mohamed Foda competed at the 2026 Arnold Classic where he placed seventh. The Detroit Pro victory now gives Foda momentum as the bodybuilding season continues toward Olympia.
Wesley Vissers Takes Classic Physique Title
The Classic Physique division title went to Wesley Vissers. The Dutch bodybuilder continued a strong run during the 2026 season with another important victory.
Vissers had already won one of the biggest contests of the year when he captured the 2026 Arnold Classic Classic Physique title earlier in the season. His success in Detroit adds another major result to his record.
Ethan Gohari finished second in Classic Physique at Detroit. Earlier in the year, he placed sixth at the 2026 Arnold Classic, showing consistent performance among top athletes.
The Detroit Pro has become a respected contest on the IFBB Pro League schedule. The event is promoted by former professional bodybuilder Fouad Abiad, who has helped develop the show into a popular early season competition.
