Function CR Lee 468 Posted November 7, 2018 #362 Share Posted November 7, 2018 31 minutes ago, heywoodu said: Who should I be cheering for, Tian Tao or Moradi? Moradi has clear penalty points for being a convicted doper and another penalty point for being unfairly treated (in a good way for him) by the IWF president, so the decision will have to be made based on their personality. @MHSN Is Moradi a decent guy worth cheering for? @Function CR Lee Same question about Tian Tao I think Moradi is stronger than Tian Tao,but I’ll still cheer for Tian. opruh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHSN 3,174 Posted November 7, 2018 #363 Share Posted November 7, 2018 what a mistake by Russian coaches, they forgot to change the weight and Klimonov had to come and lift only 1kg more than his 2nd attempt ! I remember such thing happened once for Oleg Chen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, but I want to know if Tian is a 'nice' guy I prefer cheering for nice people instead of for the flag next to their name, which means much less (case in point: Dutch athlete Dafne Schippers, who is/was world class but comes across as such a huge negative personality there's no way I want to cheer for her) If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
