In an interview with CNN Brasil, Ramon Dino said that he spoke to one of the Mr. Olympia referees after finishing in 4th place in this year’s edition. The Brazilian wants to hear feedback from the other judges in the competition.
“He told me to continue, that this wasn’t just my fault, it was the whole team’s fault, so I wouldn’t get upset by it and that he still saw me as the Mr. Olympia champion. He gave me a little hope that it could happen”, he said.
The athlete also said that he has not yet started preparing for next year and said that he may even change the technical team, currently made up of the American Chris Aceto, and the Brazilian Black Belt.
Ramon Dino’s performance was widely commented on due to the Brazilian’s perspiration on stage. Excessive sweat ended up “melting” the paint used on the body, which harmed the athlete’s performance and classification, who finished the tournament in 4th place.
On social media, many users and influencers placed the responsibility on , the team’s coach, and criticized the coach. Some internet users said that Aceto made a mistake in the athlete’s submission.
