The last time we saw Fouad Abiad on the bodybuilding stage, he took fourth at the 2009 Europa Super Show. Not exactly an impressive placing with the line-up at hand, mind you. The Canadian could have easily have been forgotten on the pro circuit but made an impressive comeback last Saturday in California.
By taking third place at the FLEX Pro, Abiad not only put himself back on the map, but also qualified for the 2011 Mr. Olympia. He bested a muscular Dennis Wolf and the rest of the competitors, sans winner Evan Centopani and runner-up Dexter Jackson.
Abiad appeared to have some quality size to his 6'2" frame and has previously signed up to compete next month at the Arnold Classic in Columbus, Ohio. It will be interesting to see how he does against a deeper line-up, but one that is open enough to allow for someone like Abiad to sneak up the ladder.
