Yes. What I really hate about her is what she said after she was banned for doping. She said something like: 'Using performance enhancing drugs is like driving your car too fast. After you have been booked, everything is fine and you continue to drive'.

 

No sign of regret, no sign of hindsight at all. Seeing her competing makes me just sick.

Exactly. The only dopers for which I have a slight bit of respect left are those that say "Yes, I doped. I made a stupid mistake and deserve whatever ban I'll get.", apart from the young teenage athletes who are likely to be forcefully doped by the state...that's not so much cheating on their side as it is simply child abuse.

Russian media saying the following sports are cleared by the IOC:

 

- Handball (women's team)

- Volleyball (all indoor and beach teams)

- Boxing (all 11 qualified Russians)

- Wrestling (all 16 approved Russians, so all qualified Russians minus Lebedev)

- Shooting (all qualified Russians)

- Judo (all qualified Russians)

 

 

Rumours have it CAS upheld Morozov and Lobintsev's appeal, meaning they'd be allowed to compete, but I can't find anything official on that yet...

 

Anyone care to help build this list now that more sports are confirming which Russians are allowed and which aren't?

The world amateur Boxing Federation, the AIBA, has said it cannot confirm that an Irish boxer has failed a drugs test, despite reports. They say it's currently a matter for the Irish authority.

Around 270 Russians are allowed

[dareza 911]

According to ROC 270 athletes will be in Rio. So, it seems that Morozov and Lobintsev will be in team. Still they don't know for Efimova.
