Blessing Awodibu and Nick Walker Turn From Rivals to Training Partners

Blessing Awodibu and Nick Walker turn from rivals to training partners.

Blessing Awodibu and Nick Walker have rekindled their rivalry as they train back together. The bright spot is that the two appear to be on friendly terms.

Rivalries can be extremely toxic or healthy depending on the individuals involved. A rivalry can bring out the absolute best in two competitors as well as the worst. But when it’s on the positive side it can certainly end up being a treat for the competitors, fans, abs everyone else involved. That brings us to two former rivals who have once again crossed paths.

It appears that top bodybuilders Blessing Awodibu and Nick Walker have rekindled their rivalry. The two traded a ton of words back and forth on social media ahead of their fated meeting at the 2021 NY Pro. The unfortunate part is that they never got to share the stage together.

While Nick Walker took top honors at the show, Blessing Awodibu would in sixth place at the show. Walker has since gone on to compete at and win the 2021 Arnold Classic and even took fifth at the Olympia. Blessing on the other hand decided to take an extended off season and improve upon his physique.

It seemed as if the two bodybuilders would t cross paths for quite some time. But in the bodybuilding world it isn’t too uncommon to run into an old friend or in this case an old rival.

After burying the hatchet, it appears that Blessing Awodibu and Nick Walker are on pretty good terms. The two rivals recently met up and trained back together.
