Peterson has been a mainstay of the bodybuilding scene for several years, appearing at numerous shows including four appearances at the Olympia; three times at Classic Physique, before moving to the 212 Division. He was even expected to return to the big stage this weekend, at the 2021 Olympia, where he hoped to break his streak of landing in third place at each showing.
Unfortunately it seems that “Da Bull’” has tragically and unexpectedly passed away, according to reports from the Olympia Instagram page. At the time of writing, it is unclear what the cause of his death was, but this article will be updated as more information from this breaking news story develops.
UPDATE: A report from RxMuscle revealed some more details of the situation, with Dave Palumbo explaining that George was found in his hotel room, face down, after his coach was unable to reach him. The report also indicated that George had blood around his nose, which Dave suggests could be related to an aneurysm, although that has yet to be confirmed. Efforts were made to try to revive him, but it appeared that he had been gone for several hours.
