Yep. I was going through the rankings of the past years and it's incredible to see how China basically dominates especially the lighter women categories 

 

Maybe not always in terms of winning everything, but mostly when looking at the vast amounts of Chinese lifters in the world's top-20 in those weights, incredible. 

 

Well, it's not actually China only. Asia is better in lighter events while Europe (+KAZ/UZB/IRI) are ahead in heavier events, generally speaking.

The US will claim the #1 spot once again anyway, so hold your horses.

I was talking specifically about the weightlifting, but yes i hope they do, even though i'm not so enthusiastic about the US this time like in previous Olympics.

[MHSN 3,645]

here is the new medal distribution if IWF/IOC officially disqualify all of them

 

Aukhadov (Silver 85)

Rostami (IRN) Bronze ==> Silver

Yehia (EGY) 4th ==> Bronze

 

Ilyin (Gold 94)

Ivanov (RUS) Silver ==> Gold

Ciricu (MDA) Bronze ==> Silver

Demanov (RUS) 4th ==> Bronze

 

Chinshanlo (Gold 53)

Hsu (TPE) Silver ==> Gold

Iovu (MDA) Bronze ==> Silver

Febrianti (INA) 4th ==> Bronze

 

Kalina (Bronze 58)

Gulnoi (THA) 4th ==> Bronze

 

Maneza (Gold 63)

Tsarukaeva (RUS) Silver ==> Gold

Girard (CAN) Bronze ==> Silver

Simsek (TUR) 4th ==> Bronze

 

Shkermankova (Bronze 69)

Nurmukhambetova (KAZ) 5th ==> Bronze

 

Podobedova (Gold 75)

Zabolotnaya (RUS) Silver ==> Gold

Kulesha (BLR) Bronze ==> Silver

Valentin (ESP) 4th ==> Bronze

 

* Some of these athletes who are supposed to get a better medal later tested positive for doping. so I have a feeling IOC/IWF will leave some (or even all) of those medals blank and won't give them to anybody.
