This level is not so high

 

It's a boring WC this year but I tuned in after all and I have to say, it's good if you want to get asleep. Good night.

Another Asian domination in Men's -56 kg , Vietnam as expected win Gold and Silver , bronze went to Thailand 

[Jur 683]

I'd rather have a low level championship that getting world records from doped athletes.

India has just won a gold medal in women's -48 kg , their 1st in total I think ?

Interesting to see the name of Turkmenistan's athlete in 48kg changed from Dzhumabayeva during the snatch (and in the start book) to Jumabayeva in the clean & jerk

I know the level in this competition is reduced, but I'm glad because Mexico got its first medals in men's competition, a silver and a bronze in the clean and jerk

Apparently you didn't watch either the women's 48kg or the men's 62kg, they were definitely a lot more interesting than the men's 56kg

Yes, I was only watching the snatch in the Men's -56kg. Everything else was too late for me.
