with these new weight classes, now I hope that Pizzolato can split from his nightmares Nasar and the Colombian doping cheater Lopez...

I also have the same suspicion on Lopez

Another weight categories....

 

Why  IWF and IOC do not make every kg Weight categories and World records...?

 

 

I do wish that when they made new weight categories they would go back and reset the world record based on the best result for anyone who would qualify for that weight category.

 

We all know why they don't do that though (changing weight categories is a soft way to remove dopers from the record books)

At this rate Karlos will be setting world records like Duplantis or even Bubka.. They can reset them every year..

 

What was the point of IWF making all those changes, when the IOC will do whatever they want. Wasn't this communicated early? So many years, so many reason why this sport is seen as a joke and has it's World Championships in front of 50 people.

2 days now without changing the body weights again ...very boring

Italian hopes for LA 2028 done and dusted...

 

Local prosecutor in  Trapani requested a 10-year sentence against Antonino Pizzolato (and 3 friends of him) because of a supposed rape against a  tourist, down in Sicily   (and it looks he'll be almost certainly convicted, there's no sign he can be named not guilty by the evidence)

I know he's quite an idiot, but I never thought he was so disgustingly an asshole
