Weightlifting IWF World Championships 2024


Recommended Posts

With the IWF cracking down on doping, North Korea was already the second best nation before Covid. The three-year isolation does make things suspicious.

 

Considering the IWF is now testing them every time they compete (given their results), they are probably clean now. The IWF is on such a short leash that a scandal like this may kill the federation so I imagine they are keeping a watchful eye on them.

Karlos just makes things look so easy :champion: 25 kg from second place and 2 new world records. If he had 2-3 more minutes of rest he could have gotten 225 kg as well.

:KAZ Kazakhstan won two golds yesterday and today

 

but there is something interesting about both of these guys. Antropov and Adiletuly 

they both failed a doping test in 2023, ITA gave them a 1.5 years suspension which expired right few days before this tournament. 

 

Kazakhstan never stopped doing their "thing" :wacko: whenever Guy A failed the test, the brought up Guy B doing the same until he fails too. then move to guy C. now with ITA's help they are even recycling their already exposed cheaters.

 

yet they never received a real and serious ban for this. well I guess they know where and how to expend their money. paying the right guy.

Any chance one could rewatch these events on YouTube? Such a tragedy Eurosport doesn't do weightlifting anymore :p And it's not on Eurovisionsports neither.

I wonder if anybody in the world cares about the team ranking in weightlifting but our federation does :p:facepalm::lol:

 

in past 10-12 years Iran lost so many medals because of this. most of our weightlifters start (mostly in CJ) with a very low weight (usually the minimum they can because of the entry record) to make sure they have a total and get some ranking points for the team and then jump something like 10 kilos for the medal. it usually kills their medal chance. I believe we could win the gold at 96, silver at 109 and a medal (not sure what color) at 102kg but lost them because of this super stupid strategy. IWF commentators always laugh at Iranian weightlifters :facepalm:and their weird weigh selection strategy. 

 

it was an OKish tournament for the Iranian team. winning 1 silver and 3 bronze is not great but not bad either. Yousefi and Davoudi both making their last attempts and kicking that piece of crap Bahraini mercenary out of the podium made my day.

 

unfortunately Yousefi is weak in Snatch to be a treat for the total gold medal. but he lifted 262 in CJ yesterday,:yikes: I believe only few weightlifters in history did that before. it looked like he might be capable of lifting 268 which will be the best CJ lift ever.

    • I think the reason is that it's generally preferable to have a fast shooter in the 1st leg, and especially in the prone shooting, where Hofer is quite slow.   Now, I'm not saying I agree with the choice, because I don't. I think it's going to neutralize Giacomel's skiing skills in the 1st lap at least.   I guess the idea is to try and set a very fast pace in the 1st leg, which is usually quite tactical, but I'm afraid that's going to force Giacomel to risk too much because he will feel he has to make some time somehow.   Regardless, Italy must be on the podium tomorrow. I think that would be crucial for the following races as well. I think France is the clear favorite, but the other teams are not stronger than Italy on paper.
