The IFBB Pro League season continued with one of its key early contests as the Detroit Pro 2026 delivered standout performances in both Men’s Open and Classic Physique. Two athletes emerged as clear winners: Mohamed Foda in Men’s Open Bodybuilding and Wesley Vissers in Classic Physique.
The competition took place on March 14 in Detroit, Michigan, and served as an official qualifying event for the 2026 Mr. Olympia, meaning winners automatically secured their place at bodybuilding’s biggest stage.
With Olympia qualification on the line, competitors brought elite conditioning and competitive physiques to the stage, but it was Foda and Vissers who ultimately separated themselves from the field.
The 2026 edition featured two professional divisions:
Mohamed Foda delivered one of the most impressive performances of the night in the Men’s Open division. Throughout the prejudging and finals, he stood out for his combination of muscle density, conditioning, and balanced proportions.
Judges consistently placed Foda in the center during comparisons, highlighting the overall completeness of his physique. His conditioning and structure allowed him to edge out a competitive lineup and secure the victory.
This win also marks an important rebound for Foda after earlier competing at the 2026 Arnold Classic, where he finished seventh. His Detroit Pro victory now gives him momentum heading toward Olympia season.
2nd Place — Blessing Awodibu
3rd Place — Elias McCall
4th Place — Patrick Moore
5th Place — Christopher Miller
Foda’s victory confirmed him as one of the rising threats in the Men’s Open division as the bodybuilding season progresses.
The Classic Physique division saw a dominant performance from Dutch bodybuilder Wesley Vissers. Known for his Golden Era aesthetic and strong posing, Vissers delivered a physique that perfectly matched the division's judging criteria.
Vissers’ conditioning, symmetry, and stage presence allowed him to stand out clearly in comparisons. His classic proportions and balanced development earned him the unanimous victory.
This win adds to what has already been a strong 2026 season for Vissers. Earlier in the year, he captured the Classic Physique title at the Arnold Classic, further solidifying his place among the top athletes in the division.
2nd Place — Ethan Gohari
3rd Place — Paulin Tsamezeu
4th Place — David Aguilar Rosales
5th Place — Lamar Shaw
With this victory, Vissers continues to build momentum heading toward the Olympia stage, where he will look to challenge the top contenders in the Classic Physique division.
The Detroit Pro winners automatically qualify for the 2026 Mr. Olympia, making this contest a critical milestone early in the IFBB Pro League season.
Mohamed Foda’s win puts him into the Men’s Open Olympia lineup, where he will face some of the biggest names in the sport. Meanwhile, Wesley Vissers continues his strong campaign after winning both the Arnold Classic and Detroit Pro in the same season.
These results could have significant implications for the Olympia lineup later this year, as both athletes have demonstrated elite-level conditioning and stage presence.
Mohamed Foda delivered a powerful showing to secure the Men’s Open title and Olympia qualification, while Wesley Vissers continued his dominant Classic Physique run with another impressive victory.
