On Episode 305 of The Menace Podcast, host Dennis James was joined by Milos Sarcev and Jose Raymond, and with the 2027 Arnold Classic set for March 5 and 6, the panel discussed how much better the current Mr. Olympia, Nick Walker could get as he vies for the $750k prize.<\/p>\n
\u00a0Walker brought his best physique yet to Las Vegas in September, winning his first Mr. Olympia title a<\/a>nd confirming his interest in treading the boards at the Arnold Classic in March. And why wouldn\u2019t he? Having picked up the $600,000 check for first place in Sin City, \u201cThe Mutant\u201d could add another $750,000 to his bulging bank balance if he is successful in Columbus. Recently, Walker has stated that he wants to put even more distance between himself and top contenders like Derek Lunsford, Samson Dauda, and Andrew Jacked. But how much bigger and better could Walker realistically get in the next few months?<\/p>\n <<\/p>\n \/p><\/p>\n In a recent Instagram post, Walker shared that one week post Olympia, he is now at 267 pounds and rising. \u201cFood slowly going up. Cardio slowly going down,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n \u201cHow much better can Nick get?\u201d asked TMP host Dennis James during the show.<\/p>\n Milos Sarcev responded that The Mutant could become even more dominant with his \u201cstomach in check, with a little bit more width, and thickness to the back. A little bit more sweep to the thighs.\u201d He also felt that while Walker is becoming \u201cgranite hard,\u201d he is not as striated as he could be, although \u201cThe Mind\u201d said he has improved in this area with the chest.<\/p>\n \u201cLike you said, if he had more sweep, oh, that would change his shape,\u201d agreed The Menace. \u201cThat would take him to another level up.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt would make his waist look even smaller,\u201d added Jose Raymond.<\/p>\n Dennis James noted that despite the potential improvements that Nick Walker could make, his current physique is the best package that he has ever brought to the stage, observing that The Mutant\u2019s midsection was now under control. \u201cHe was the one with the flattest stomach on stage,\u201d complimented the host. \u201cThat alone deserves to with the f***ing show.\u201d<\/p>\n To see this conversation in full on The Menace Podcast, where the panel also discussed the latest bodybuilding news and results, check it out on the Muscle & Fitness YouTube channel<\/a>.<\/p>\nNick Walker is already adding size ahead of the 2026 Arnold Classic<\/strong><\/h3>\n
