Ansley made his name known in the bodybuilding community after an explosive 2017 season. Ansley managed to win first place at the New York Pro and also secured gold at Mr. Olympia. Following his monumental year in the sport, Ansley returned in 2018 and one-upped himself. First, Ansley won first prize at the Arnold Classic. Then capped off another incredible year by nailing his second Mr. Olympia title in a row.
After realizing major success in the sport, Breon competed in 2019 and won the Yamamoto Cup Pro. Ansley took his talents to Mr. Olympia again, and the Classic Physique competitor placed second. In 2020 and 2021, Breon Ansley competed in one major show, Mr. Olympia, and took home third place on both occasions. After coming so close to gold a number of times, surely, he’s reinvigorated to perform at his very best at the 2022 Arnold Classic.
