@thiago_simoes I wonder what are your thoughts on gymnastics events here.

I voted on Chechi on rings and Kanaeva in the all-around.
 
No one can beat Chechi's elegance and control. Csollány would have been my second choice. Azaryan would have been my third choice, even though he's from a totally different time and even his namesake skill is not used anymore. But he was decidedly elegant and strong for his time.

On the women's side, it's quite shocking that no Olympic champion has really captivated me. I voted on Kanaeva mostly because she has two titles, but my favorite has got to be Marina Lobatch. Lori Fung would have been my third choice.

Athletics, men's 800m...maybe Rudisha was really the best specialist ever to run the distance, but I don't trust anymore any Kenian/Ethiopian success in the last 40 years at least, therefore my pick is "el caballo" :CUB Alberto Juantorena, a man that could really make any race exciting a lot more than the current top specialists.

 

Judo, men's Lightweight...my pick is :JPN Shoei Ono, despite this class has seen many very good representatives. But he's the only man to repeat himself on the Olympic mat, and that's a lot in this sport.

 

Judo, women's Lightweight...this is a difficult choice, as many of these Olympic champions didn't prove themselves durable, consistent at the top of the ranking of this weight class. My pick here is :ESP Isabel Fernandez, maybe the only one to be an exception to what I wrote before.

 

Artistic Gymnastics, men's Rings...:ITA Yuri Chechi...the true Lord of the Rings, who else?

 

Rhythmic Gymnastics, Individual All-Round...rankings written well before the actual competition is held, unfair winners...is that worth any attention? :WHT I pass on this event.

@phelps Shohei Ono is 13-0 here, the gold medal looks to be assured. Noone else has got a single vote yet.

 

So who would you choose for the minor medals in this category?

:JPN Toshihiko Koga would be my second choice (he also won an Olympic silver medal and 3 world championships gold medals in his career) and :ITA Ezio Gamba (an Olympic silver and 3 consecutive world championships silver medals in his career, signing an era in the judo history...and now by far the best coach in the world) the third choice...
