Naturally, some fans were disappointed. While it was generally agreed that Choopan deserved to be in the top 5, some did not agree with his win. Comments ranged from mildly upset like, “congrats to Hadi but man I really wanted Derek to win”, and “Ramy got robbed”, to straight-up frustrated like, “Everyone that purchased the live stream needs to be refunded.”

Although fans did not expect Big Ramy to come in at the 5th position, the top 5 were, more or less, precisely predicted. However, the fan base on Twitter had a separate set of conspiracies going on.

Did Big Ramy fall into the web of IFBB politics?

While the audience rejoiced at the win of Hadi Choopan, one could not ignore the brutal loss of Big Ramy. After all, how did the reigning champion finish fifth, instead of second or third? A fan called the competition rigged.

One fan theorized that Big Ramy fell prey to the IFBB politics.

So that was it! The Men’s Open Mr. Olympia 2022 results were announced and held some of the top contenders at a neck-to-neck battle. Hadi Choopan stood first, Derek Lunsford stood second, Nick Walker got third along with the People’s Choice award, Brandon Curry was fourth, and Big Ramy stood fifth. With Hadi Choopan now announced as the title holder, let us know who you voted for in the comments!
