The 2014 Arnold Classic will celebrate the 26th anniversary in a few months, in Columbus Ohio on February 27th - March 2nd.

Next week the first official list of competitors will be up on the official site, but until then we know that Dexter Jackson is already confirmed and he is looking to beat the 4x Arnold record, held by himself and Flex Wheeler.

Another big name returning to the stage in Columbus, will be Ben Pakulski, 2013's runner up and the winner of the most muscular award. After skipping the show in 2013, Branch Warren, the 2011 and 2012 champion, will return to win the second biggest show in bodybuilding once again.

More details and info later on. Stay tuned!
