Just a month ago, Filipino gymnast Carlos Yulo made history with back-to-back gold medals at the Paris 2024 Olympics. 

Fast forward to now, and it seems our Golden Boy is ready to switch gears—into basketball? 

During a recent media event, One Sports spotted someone who looked just like Caloy, donning a maroon jersey for the University of the Philippines. 

Plot twist: It’s actually his kalokalike, Fighting Maroons’ Janjan Felicilda!

As a proud Pinoy, the rising UP playmaker happily embraces his role as the look-alike of the two-time Olympic gold medalist, even striking the gymnast’s signature pose for a bit of fun.

“Sabi nila kamukha ko si Carlos Yulo,” Janjan said with a laugh.
