At the beginning of March, Vitor had won runner-up at the Arnold Ohio, the second most important tournament in the sport. The Brazilian was surpassed only by the American Brandon Hendrickson, owner of three Mr. Olympia titles.
The rival did not participate in the England competition, and the path was clearer for Vitor's triumph. This time, the dispute was between the Brazilian and the Romanian Andrei Dei, but the Pernambuco native received the best evaluation from the judges.
