Bodybuilders and fans are waiting with bated breath for the nearing 2024 Dubai Pro as a crop of Men’s Open stars are on deck for an action-packed contest in the Middle East. Among the Pros evaluating the lineup are retired talents Iain Valliere and Seth Feroce, who offered their top five picks on July 26, 2024 days before the event.
In addition to the mega-impressive cash prize, athletes will have the potential to earn their respective qualification for the Mr. Olympia event, prompting bodybuilders from far and wide to flock to the United Arab Emirates to wage war this weekend.
Having laid claim to gold at the 2024 Mr. Big Evolution Pro Portugal show en route to defeating William Bonac, De Asha will no doubt vie for the top spot on Sunday. Although the setback wasn’t ideal, it was no sweat off former two-time Arnold Classic champion Bonac’s back as he won the Empro Classic Pro. Additionally, let’s not forget Behrooz Tabani, who took the top spot at the Flex Weekend Pro.
There is one competitor who will have his eye on more than just earning the large pot of cash and that is Rubiel ‘Neckzilla’ Mosquera who has yet to earn his ticket to the 2024 Olympia. In his last outing in Prague, ‘Neckzilla’ finished third at the EVLS Prague Pro.

Iain Valliere and Seth Feroce Reveal Their Top 5 Men’s Open Division Picks for the 2024 Dubai Pro
The 2024 Dubai Pro roster is packed with big names. Retired IFBB Pro bodybuilders Iain Valliere and Seth Feroce have chimed in, sharing their predictions ahead of the event. In spite of it being Mosquera’s second show, both Valliere and Feroce are pegging him to win.
Iain Valliere’s Predictions:
- Rubiel Mosquera
- Behrooz Tabani
- Nathan De Asha
- William Bonac
- Alie Edward
Seth Feroce’s Predictions:
- Rubiel Mosquera
- Behrooz Tabani
- William Bonac
- Nathan De Asha
- Vilius Sosnovskis
In addition to giving their top picks for the event, Iain Valliere and Feroce gave their thoughts on the physique of Nathan De Asha.
“I really like Nathan’s physique,” said Iain Valliere. “I don’t love his back shots but his front and side shots I love. I like it [his long waist]. I don’t always, but in his, I like the look.”
“Just such thick dense muscle,” responds Seth Feroce.
Next, they took a closer look at William Bonac.
“Yeah, he looks good. Legs look good though. The detail looks good in them,” shares Valliere. “Still looks great detail-wise, quarter turns look crazy, side shots look crazy.”
Finally, they weighed up the massive physique of Rubiel ‘Neckzilla’ Mosquera.
“He did a Pro debut last year and was still wildly impressive. He beat Nathan in his Pro debut,” says Valliere.
Even though Iain Valliere and Seth Feroce aren’t choosing Nathan De Asha as their first-place pick, that hasn’t put a damper on his self-esteem. De Asha revealed that he believes his fullness will be hard to match at the 2024 Dubai Pro, feeling confident he will earn the win along with the $100,000.
“I believe my fullness it’s hard to match right now. The muscle density I have obviously because I’m a bit older. A lot of guys are big but they don’t have that mature muscle,” said De Asha. “My front lat has been the best in the game. My side chest has come up and obviously, my weakest part was my back, now my back double I believe it’s a lot older, a lot more mature, it’s a knock out show.”
The 2024 Dubai Pro will take place this weekend on July 28th where fans of the sport will just have to wait and see who pulls off the win and earns the life-changing cash prize of $100,000. Be sure to follow us here on Fitness Volt to be updated live on the action!
