The 31-year-old Australian bodybuilder gained a lot of popularity after winning the “Mr. Universe” title in the World Fitness Federation Professional competition.

The Australian is also known as “Arnold 2.0” in the bodybuilding sector.

On January 31, Von Moger was charged for an altercation and possession of narcotics, including cannabis, as well as testosterone. At the time, the report had spawned much speculation over his steroid use. After his initial release through bail, the Melbourne court decided to postpone the case until May 26, 2022. However, with this recent controversy, it is uncertain if the case will resume this month.

Previously, he was also involved in legal trouble after allegedly wielding a weapon during a road rage incident. With his recent injury, it is unclear if the bodybuilder will address these legal controversies in court.
