Nick Walker and Samson Dauda are both making rounds in the bodybuilding community for being huge muscular guys. It’s the general opinion that they are going to do even better at the next year’s Olympia.
In the episode, Walker said, “My personal opinion on Samson though. I personally think he should sit out the Arnold and try focus on either making more improvements for the Olympia. Cause he could, I mean, he could.. cause a lot of havoc, you know. His only downfall was that he wasn’t conditioned enough.”
While Nick Walker expressed in the episode that he should have won the contest, not everyone is of the same opinion. In fact, bodybuilding coach Milos Sarcev, according to an article in Fitness Volt, believes that Dauda should in fact have beaten Walker.
Nick Walker vs. Samson Dauda
Milos Sarcev believes that Dauda should have finished third instead of Walker. Dauda was even termed as the dark horse going into the Olympia competition as he was the biggest of all the participants at a whopping 330 pounds. Not only could Dauda take Walker’s third place according to Sarcev, but he could also beat Derek Lunsford for the second place pose by pose, as Lunsford was still soft in a lot of places.

It was Samson Dauda’s first time and in an Instagram post he shared, Dauda is confident that he will be coming back stronger than ever and make a place for himself in the IFBB Pro League.
