[@vanguelder]

oh my god... not crying...

[@benjamin_fdw]

2024 I think it will be really hard for him to do it. He has not the best genetic, he will need to put a huge amount of mass on his legs and back hide his large waist and it will be hard to gain all this mass and be able to win this soon. Then we are not in the mass monster era anymore. If he wanna win he's got to be the new Jay Cuttler

[@pecdude4595]

Sergio seems like a good guy off the internet

[@DeathSledge]

You mean in front of a crowd and Arnold Schwarzenegger?

[@angelomanzi9272]

pecdude remember that everyone handles the pressures of stardom differently. He probably has thousands of voices speaking his way daily. Not everyone can shut the noise out. Specially Sergio, the dark side of social media has turned him very bitter at times and he lashes out in a unique way. It’s understandable though, how do you even prepare for that? The dude was born into a family that left a big legacy behind. So Sergio has always been viewed from a unique perspective. I’m sure he will grow and mature overtime... these are growing pains he’s experiencing.

[@yonchrr]

@@angelomanzi9272 probably cos the Internet is full of losers.

[@vcb1023]

Sergio is such a nice guy with a big heart. He is genuinely the same person off stage that he is on stage.

[@dolphziggler-lundgren6711]

I agree with Nick, Sergio as definitely the most improved

[@jmeen215]

you can tell how much this meant to Sergio. Huge fan of him and his physique. He has a crazy work ethic and he’s doing what’s necessary to become a champion. Huge respect.

[@mikeclausen707]

You can just tell those comments from Arnold came from the heart. He's really proud and why not, Sergio looked great.

Agreed. He just needs to bring up his chest. It ends up looking smooth in the most muscular and flat in the victory pose.

Very emotional moment. Arnold is a true gentleman for paying homage to this young man’s father and encouraging his son. Class act.

a great moment for sure bro. Arnold's short speech came off as very thoughtful and genuine as well. loved to see it

[@pantelismat4352]

"i have a lot of victory posses" Arnold is so funny i pove him🤣

[@ayushchavan1746]

Sergio Jr. Deserves this recognition . Especially from Arnold 💪

[@danobirch]

Sergio Jr's free posing routine was a true blending of art and athleticism, the way bodybuilding used to be. Guys like Mohamed Makkawy, Frank Zane, Ed Corney, even Arnold and Franco (remember the scene at the beginning of Pumping Iron when they were taking ballet lessons?) put a lot of thought and effort into their posing routines to make it graceful, dramatic and entertaining, as opposed to just stomping back and forth across the stage and hitting random muscle shots (while begging for applause).

[@KingDOMCollective]

Sergio Oliva Jr. hitting all the "Ginyu force" poses like a boss!!! Hold this "W" It's a lot harder than it sounds.

[@Nimishman]

Fucked. laughed so hard

This was very touching. Being a lifelong bodybuilding enthusiast, this moment was absolutely priceless. The Great Oak giving praise to the son of his greatest rival ❤️

[@jackgarbarino9961]

This brought tears to my eyes as I was a big fan of his father and actually personally met Sergio Sr in person and was part of a promoter's team to have Sergio Sr guest pose in Burbank Ca . To see Sergio Jr love and honor his father's legacy as " The Myth " and stand with the Great Arnold Schwarzenegger in a true sentimental moment warmed my heart and brought the era to flow in my blood like the kick back I need every day as a elder bodybuilder myself 🙏

[@mr.estadity4562]

If Sergio Jr ever wins the whole thing, the Arnold, THAT'S going to be a moment to remember.

[@ocaradometal]

its good to point out that sergio never wanted his son to be a bodybuilder, thats why he said "i don't know" and asked arnold to do his pose, cuz that he was certain that his dad would like

[@UncleRico371]

It’s great that Arnold recognizes the heritage and history with this event, shows how humble he his and such a great person.

[@satinderjit4]

Sergio put the money where his mouth is and backed up his claims.

[@ajm7611]

Exactly!!

[@colin7360]

Agree. Even his waist seemed in check.

[@benjamin_fdw]

To be honest, even though I dislike his physique, especially his laaaaaarge waist. He did exactly what he said, even more. I think he was kinda triggered by the Patrick Moore trend but when it comes to show up on stage he did the job while Patrick did not

Congratulations to Sergio on being recognized for his outstanding posing routines and fantastic improvement in his physique. He came in under the radar and made a huge impact on the stage. My whom doubted him were quickly silenced. Sergio will be a force to be reckoned with. His presence on the stage speaks volumes. Overall Arnold Classic was a great show and had a lot of wow factors.
