I have a question on the different weight classes and the respective qualifications for the Olympic Games.
Example 1: French Bernardin Matam is currently on place 17 in the qualifcation ranking for weight class <73 kg.
But I only see results for him in weight class <67kg and he only competed in this class in the current european championships.
Example 2: German Simon Josef Brandhuber is currently on place 8 in the qualification ranking for weight class <61kg.
From what I see, he competed in weight classes <73kg and <67kg in the last years and only moved to <61kg this year.
How are the athletes classified for the different weight classes in the Olympic Ranking and how are old results treated if an athlete moves to another weight class?
