Hadi Choopan is in the US and ready to compete.
So the rumors were true! It looks like Hadi Choopan has indeed received his visa and has landed in Orlando, Florida for the 2020 Olympia.
For awhile there it seemed like the “Persian Wolf” would be unable to compete at the 2020 show. That would have been a real shame, especially considering that he came in third place at last year’s show. That fact alone showed the rest of the Open Bodybuilding division that the former 212 bodybuilders are forces to be reckoned with.
The Instagram post below by Hany Rambod shows the Iranian bodybuilder arriving in Orlando. From the looks of things Choopan is looking massive and ready to perform at the Olympia this weekend.

With his arrival on American soil, the other competitors have been officially put on notice. Hadi Choopan has been looking impressive in recent training videos and has shown massive improvement. With reigning champion Brandon Curry looking sharp and ready, the return of Phil Heath at this year’s show and now Choopan arriving in Orlando, all bets are off as to who will take top honors at the Olympia.
