What happened?
During the finals of the Arnold Classic, they announced that Martin Fitzwater would be in 4th place. Clearly he was not happy and he made his feelings on stage apparent. When they announced that Nick Walker would be in 2nd place, Martin was seen cheering and happy that Nick lost, and clearly showed it on stage. There is no love between Fitzwater and Nick Walker, but reports backstage afterwards said that he refused to shake hands with Walker, nor cared to be near him.
The problem is what he did afterwards on social media. He wound up posting online a few messages and then allegendly argued with his fans. This poor attack and mental breakdown shone negatively on him, and on his sponsors, who would up dropping him a day or two later.
What he posted, among other things was the statement ‘Worst Most Embarrassing Showing of My Life. I have no words no joy no happiness this prep was my hardest ever for the shittiest result. I will not be on social for the next month if you have my number you can call me otherwise leave tf alone. And if one more telsl me congratulations I’m gonna block you. You congratulate winners not losers”
So what now? For many fans, drama like this is pretty entertaining for the sport, and can only bring up more rivalry later on. there have been lots of drama online and at events. But too much is going on about this. He thought he should of placed higher, he was clearly upset. He handled in very poorly. But he is a person, and should receover and grow stronger as he is very emptional.
