I'm convinced Yang could have lifted much more

Should Michalsi go for 226kg and a medal if Martirosyan fails, or for 228kg and a certain medal?

RIP Iraqi medal

[heywoodu 15,141]

Wow, easy for Martirosyan

This Iraqi athlete wasted a golden historic chance for Iraq to win a total medal in an olympic event ,but he always sucks like this in big events

wow.  Martirosyan made up for all those dumb moves from other Armenian weightlifters. even 240 was easy for him

that 226 was easy for him and it was really obvious that he can lift it by his clean and always in major events he made 1 successful attempt or bomb out , u can check this also

In this last 3 big events he bombed out once and had 2 succesful CJ lifts twice  (and when he was younger he had 2 and 3 succesful CJ lifts at world champs)
