Nick Walker, the athlete some consider to be the No. 1 contender to Elssbiay&#8217;s throne, is seemingly coming on with a full head of steam. In a Nov. 14, 2022, video on James &#8220;Flex&#8221; Lewis&#8217; YouTube channel, legendary coach and 1989 Mr. Universe Milo\u0161 \u0160ar\u010dev maintained he thinks Elssbiay and Walker will <strong>present the main attraction at the 2022 Olympia<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"video-wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Who will win the Olympia - Milos Sarcev\" width=\"950\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K8jTwpzcAOQ?start=135&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<div class=\"is-layout-constrained wp-block-group is-style-call-out-bm-icon\">\n<p><em><strong>More from Breaking Muscle:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/deadlift-benefits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"162012\">6 Deadlift Benefits Everyone Should Know About<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/workout-complex\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"162013\">Workout Complexes Explained: Use Combination Lifts for Better Results<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>At the moment, few people might be as plugged into what could happen at the 2022 Olympia as \u0160ar\u010dev.

The coach reflected on what Walker brought to the table performance-wise in a stellar fifth-place debut at the 2021 Olympia. He considered that the young athlete might return for his second go-round with an impeccable flourish against the sport&#8217;s current king. In fact, \u0160ar\u010dev believes a battle between Elssbiay and Walker is what everyone in the bodybuilding sphere is waiting for with bated breath. <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cHe [Nick Walker] was overwhelming,&#8221; \u0160ar\u010dev noted. &#8220;That front double <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/best-biceps-exercises\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"162017\">biceps<\/a>.
