2020 IFBB Figure International
(Columbus, Ohio - March 6, 2020)
Arguably on a par with the Ms. Olympia, this invitational only IFBB Pro Event featured the very best in the Figure Division. As
part of the Arnold Sports Festival, it attracts visitors from all over the world. In a last minute move to err on the side of
caution regarding health threats and public safety (ie. coronavirus), it was decided to limit the general public audience to just the Finals.
The trade show/expo had been cancelled as well. So that's how this reporter's first Arnold Classic experience played out. Back to the
competition, it did NOT disappoint! Hard to guage these things at first, especially in Figure...past results don't necessarily translate
into the present. Natalia Soltero, however put together a solid, balanced package to impress! Speaking of impressive fields, the rest of the top 6 included two IFBB Vancouver Pro Show
winners, Bojana Vasiljevic and Anna Banks.
In an effort to support the sponsors and exhibitors of the 2020 Arnold Sports Festival and canceled Arnold Fitness EXPO, the Arnold Virtual EXPO was created so you can still connect and have access to all the amazing products, services and offers you would have seen at the Arnold Sports Festival!
