Shawn Rhoden will not be competing at the Arnold Classic 2018.
Shawn Rhoden has officially announced on Instagram that he will no longer be competing in the Arnold Classic 2018. This comes due to some extreme dehydration, two ulcers, and a serious case of the flu – creating a perfect storm that sent him to the hospital.
When it was first announced that Shawn Rhoden would be competing at the Arnold Classic (along with some other major names) – it was a shot in the arm for the major competition. Fans were delighted to know that the Arnold Classic would have a heated and all star line up that has been lacking as of late in the Ohio event. Unfortunately, we will now be down one major competitor – and while we are glad to know that Shawn Rhoden is doing well and recovering, he will be sorely missed on the bodybuilding stage. Shawn Ray gives the full update in the video above!
