A Pakistani athlete has clinched the Mr Musclemania title at the Mr Musclemania competition in Las Vegas on Sunday.
In a video message posted on his Facebook page, Pakistani bodybuilder Salman Ahmad said after winning the gold medal in the World Men Open in light weight class at the event he became the pro-card holder which allowed him to compete in the All Over World Men’s Open title. “After that I won the All Over World Men’s titles,” said Ahmad.
Ahmad claimed that it was for the time in history that someone from Pakistan has won the title of Mr Musclemania since the competition started 25 years ago.

Pakistani bodybuilder wins title at Arnold Classic Australia
Ahmad might be a first Pakistani to be named Mr Musclemania, but he is certainly not the first Pakistani to raise the country’s flag in the sport. Earlier in March this year, another Pakistani athlete Atif Anwar won a title at the Arnold Classic body building competition held in Australia.
Anwar won the ‘over 100 kg class’ title at the event named after Hollywood legend and seven times Mr Olympia, Arnold Schwarzenegger.
