Turning Professional

Moraes’s amateur record on file shows two wins in 2019: the NPC Worldwide Musclecontest Brazil Championships on 23 August, then the Amateur Olympia Brazil on 2 October, where he won the Men’s Bodybuilding class f.
He was a professional by November 2021. Which amateur show earned him his pro card is not named in any source read — the two 2019 wins are the candidates, but no source says which one awarded it.
His professional debut came at the Musclecontest Brazil Pro in São Paulo on 27–28 November 2021. He won the 212 title in a six-man field, beating Fabricio deSouza Moreira and Felipe Fierro Lobos, and qualified for the 2022 Mr. Olympia.

A year after his debut win, Moraes made his Mr. Olympia debut in Las Vegas. On 16 December 2022 he finished eighth in the 212 division with 40 points, in a class won by Shaun Clarida.
He did not compete again until May 2023, when he returned to São Paulo for the Musclecontest International São Paulo Pro.

On 20 May 2023 he won the 212 title, beating Drey Pereira and Elivelton Morais in a six-man field. It was his second professional win, and it qualified him for the 2023 Mr. Olympia.
At the Olympia in Orlando on 3 November 2023 he finished tenth in the 212 division with 48 points. Keone Pearson won the title, and Moraes’s second Olympia appearance ended outside the top ten.
No pro show of his is on record for 2024, and his next recorded contest came in October 2025.
The 2025 Comeback
Moraes returned at the Musclecontest Brazil Pro in São Paulo on 17–18 October 2025. He won the 212 title with a perfect score of 3, beating Fabricio Moreira and Andrey Pereira in an 11-man field.
The win was his third professional title, and it qualified him for the 2026 Mr. Olympia. It also ended a two-year gap since his last pro show, in November 2023.
The 2026 Season

Moraes opened 2026 at the Tampa Pro on 1 August, in a 22-man 212 field. He finished second with 9 points, behind Courage Opara’s perfect 6, with Dontravious Ballard third.
Eight weeks later he returned to the Olympia in Las Vegas. In the 212 finals on Friday 25 September he finished sixth with 29 points, wearing tag 18 — his best Olympia finish, up from eighth in 2022 and tenth in 2023.
Keone Pearson won his fourth straight 212 title, with Lucas Garcia second and Shaun Clarida third. Moraes finished one place ahead of Naotaka Yokokawa in seventh, and two ahead of Nasser Mohammad in eighth.
Three weeks later he closed the season at home, at the Musclecontest Brazil Pro 2 — Olympia Brasil — in São Paulo on 17 October. He finished second with 6 points, behind his teammate Vitor Porto, who won with a perfect 3.
He ended 2026 with three contests, two second places and a sixth at the Olympia — his busiest season, and his best.
Coaching, Diet and Training
No coach has been named for Moraes in any source read. He competes for Team Integral Médica, the supplement brand’s athlete team, and trains with his friend and teammate Vitor Porto at the same centre.
No full day of eating from him has ever been published, and no training split, supplement list or gym has been named. His full diet and training are covered in our Felipe Moraes Diet Plan and Workout Routine.
What Makes Him Stand Out
Moraes has finished in the top ten in all eight of his professional contests — and has won three of them, all on home soil in São Paulo.
He is also one of the division’s quiet improvers: eighth at the Olympia in 2022, tenth in 2023, then sixth in 2026 — his best finish, after two years away from the Olympia stage.
He does it without a public profile to match: no coach named, no diet published, no headlines. The record speaks for itself.
