2022 Romania Muscle Fest Pro Results — A Big Win for Behrooz Tabani Abar Ghani 

One of the final major contests before next month's Olympia was a doozy.

Written by Robert Zeglinski Last updated on Nov 14, 2022

The 2022 Romania Muscle Fest Pro took place on Sunday, Nov. 13, 2022, in Bucharest, Romania. Nine separate competitive divisions crowned winners in the Romanian competition.

One of the headline victors would be Behrooz Tabani Abar Ghani standing on top of the Men’s Open category, who, by capturing his first career win, also earned his first-ever berth in the 2022 Olympia that will occur on Dec. 16-18, 2022, in Las Vegas, NV. Per the standards of the International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness (IFBB), the 2022 Romania Muscle Fest Pro was a Tier 3 competition. That means athletes near the top who didn’t win earned qualification points ranging from six (second place) to three (fifth place).

Here’s an overview of the results from the Men’s Open division:

Any athletes still on the outside looking in to the 2022 Olympia have until Nov. 20, 2022, when the IFBB will close qualification on a points basis. After that date, they will have to win a contest outright to stand on the stage in Las Vegas. With approximately one month before bodybuilding’s flagship competition, all the final pieces are being put into place.
