Keone Pearson has the right stuff — at the 2024 212 Olympia finals on the evening of Oct. 11, Pearson walked away with his second Olympia title after defeating a well-prepared Shaun “Giant Killer” Clarida in a spectacular finish.
- This marks Pearson’s second consecutive win, tying Clarida’s own Olympia tallies. Pearson made a big leap from 8th to 1st in 2023, and having tasted victory, doesn’t seem interested in letting go of the 212 belt anytime soon.
