A tough break for Charles Dixon.

The 2018 Arnold Classic 212 competition was certainly a sight to behold as it was one of the most competitive line ups in recent memory. While the competition didn’t feature the absolute best of the best in the division, it do showcase just how difficult it can be to pick a winner when the athletes on stage have reached near perfection with their own physiques.

Charles Dixon was certainly a standout in the competition, overtaking the likes of Jose Raymond, David Henry, and Guy Cisternino. Many thought he was a shoe in for victory. But alas, Charles Dixon ended up taking second place to the unheralded Kamal Elgargni. It just goes to show how competitive the line up was.

As far as Charles Dixon goes, the bodybuilder was less than pleased with the judges results, yet he was still able to find a silver lining in defeat. Take a look at the video, courtesy of Fazi Fitness, to see Charles Dixon’s reaction to getting second place at the Arnold Classic.
