If she is doing 200 in the 48 . she is almost sure for gold ...I do not see any one else doing better the weight shown was 51.92 which is impossible, I quite sure that it's fake, the way she lift is clear that she lose her weight, not gain to add on, she join the competition as extra athelete, not compete for the medals, that's why the weight can be manipulated On 8/2/2016 at 16:58, nitinsanker said: I would not take her as seriously............. but she has been a world championship medallist in the 2013 world championship in the 53kg ....................................plus she has lifted 210 in 53 category in 2015 world championships where she finished 4th ..............

OlympicsFan 783 Posted August 4, 2016 #123 Share Posted August 4, 2016 In the prediction contest there are two colombian athletes in mens -62k category, but on the start list i can only see one athlete from Colombia, is it even allowed for one nation to enter two athletes in the same category? Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. A nation can enter two athletes in one category. In fact, in London, there were couple of cases of gold-silver going to the same nation (China in 77kg Men and Iran in +105kg Men) Edited August 4, 2016 by Dolby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree , but my guess would be that everyone wanna avoid risk of beiing in group B so they put very high Totals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
