Weightlifting IWF World Championships 2025


Recommended Posts

Looks like Karlos scares his opponents even before the competition starts :d We are going to have only 7 lifters in group A today, as multiple time medalists Fares El Bakh, Revaz Davitadze and Vallenilla all have withdrawn from the WCH.

Apparently Messo Hassona picked up an injury but in this sport you always can doubt these kind of news 

 

the whole Venezuelan team including Vallenilla withdrew from the competition, I assume this has something to do with the current political tension there. 

 

but at least about Davitadze we can say this for certain :p, he just received a 4 years ban from CAS few days ago. looks like Georgians tried to get away from a positive test from couple years ago but WADA/CAS blocked their escape way.

 

so the stage is set for the Kosovar hero to beat Karlos and win the gold :d

 

I wonder how he even found Kosovo?! :d I assume he put up an ad on a hiring website, something like:

 

I'm an ex Olympic Champion, I'm super arrogant, I coach myself, I don't give a shit about anything else, I'm The God of weightlifting.

Really glad with Moeini's performance, beating Nasar in Snatch and breaking the WR is something to remember for him. he wasn't expected to win a medal in total but did much better than expectations

 

but on the other hand, once again our coaches threw away another medal with their stupid decisions. Aalipour was supposed to finish 2nd behind Nasar but finished 4th with some strange attempts.

 

Iran is probably the only county in the world that still cares about the team ranking :wall: therefore not bombing out and collecting team points is always the #1 priority for our coaches. they always sacrifice one attempt to make sure the guy doesn't bomb out. and that cost our weightlifters so many medals so far.

Not as smooth competition as expected for Karlos, but thankfully he got the job done. Having two misses in Snatch was surprising. His coach mentioned afterwards, that they don't know what exactly happened yet, but could be because they are practicing a new technique.

team sports are different

 

however, I'm not saying that's good, but tbh to me it's about giving sense to a sport being "global" (and being at the Olympics) or just being a one place affair and living by itself (like the American Football, for instance...there would be no reason to make it an Olympic sport...oh, well, they actually did it :facepalm:)

 

right now, table tennis, diving and weightlifting (at least among the women) have a problem of competitiveness and have to find a way to compensate that

since you mention table tennis

 

another thing that also gives more medals to the nation that is dominant in a sport is the existence of team events, e.g. in Table tennis who is going to win any team event? Answer= China

Or mixed events also since the dominant nation has probably the best athletes in both genders

Khianoush and Kosovo, what a story. :lol:

World is just plain dumb.

I wonder - what drives him to compete in his age? He cant be any better. He might damage his persona even more, but I suppose he doesnt have much consideration left.

I know the host nation :NOR was pleased to snag a gold with Solfrid Koanda in the W 86kg yesterday. :)

 

And another bronze for :USA with Mary Theisen-Lappen in the W +86kg (also bronze in the C&J)!  We have one more athlete Aaron Williams in the Men's +110kg competition happening now, but judging by the live results, he won't be a medal contender.

Also in the M 94kg competition, the athlete from :COL in the B group Jokser Albornoz ended up with the bronze overall, including a bronze in the Snatch, and a silver in the C&J.

    • @bestmen Look, I've been reading your comments regarding Russia for quite some time, and I don't want to bite my tongue this time.   First, context matters. I agree with @copravolley. It’s not an insult to say that people who don’t live near Russia often underestimate what this war actually means for Europe. Out of the three of us, I can say with certainty that I feel the most directly affected by and concerned about this war.   In the same way I wouldn’t share my opinions on Africans and the conflicts on their continent, or lecture Palestinians about the war in Gaza, it’s reasonable to listen first when Europeans explain why this is not just a political disagreement that happens to block Russian athletes from competing, but an ongoing war of aggression that doesn’t only affect Ukraine, but also countless other countries located nearby with a long and dramatic history of communism and Russian influence. To make it clear, you're absolutely entitled to your opinion. However, you have repeatedly pushed the same narrative about the supposed injustice towards Russian competitors.   Second of all, the claim that Russian athletes have nothing to do with politics is blatantly wrong. It's a lie, and you know it. Countless Russians are actively supporting the crimes that Russia is committing on Ukrainian soil, advocating for further military operations, and show little to no remorse. Many Russians supported Putin throughout his presidential campaigns and continued doing so even after the invasion. Just look at their public statements made over the past three years. They are expected to align with the state’s narrative. That’s not an individual moral judgment, it’s how the system works.   Major Russian sports clubs are directly linked to or derived from the military. Hockey players wear war symbols and slogans on their jerseys, and this is only the tip of the iceberg. Russian sports and politics are two sides of the same coin, closely related ever since the state began pouring money into centralised doping programs and sporting propaganda. Bringing up Netanyahu or Israeli doping is pretty much just whataboutism. If there is proven, systematic wrongdoing in sport, it should be addressed through proper investigations and sanctions. That does not magically erase or excuse Russia’s actions, nor does it justify pretending this war doesn’t exist when it becomes inconvenient.

    • Slovakia pulled the goalie out in the Overtime and played 4 vs 3  for more than 2 minutes    We suddeenly pulled out goalie and have control of the puck for like 2 minutes in the first 2 minutes of the overtime but without soring than lost the puck and give up a 2 on 0 breakaway empty net goal for the czechs    Interesting strategy 
    • The doomongering made what I post on here seem positive. Everything possible to go wrong was predicted fo go wrong.
