Disgraceful.

Hope Rezazadeh is not among the names...But I'm almost sure he isn't. He campaigns against Doping in a dedicated manner, for many years now.

Wrong forum. Thread moved.

[pajamNL]

is this true??

source?

[Spyder]

Surely its a mistake!

We have such a traditional of competing properly in this sport.

[manmanam]

That is unbelievably disgraceful if it is true! What can you say?

Was this the senior or junior team?

If it is the seniors then it will be the first time Rezazadeh can't defend his crown as world weightlifting champion.

Sadly no.

German papers reported today that 9 of 11 weightlifters who would have gone to WC have been tested positiv,Ebrahimi and Rezazadeh were the only 2 who were clean.

Sadly the rules say,teams which some members were tested positiv will fully be banned,No Rezazadeh in this tournament,he will lose his title

What a bad year in sports for us,damn damn damn

[>$3<]

Yes, its true and no rezazadeh isnt one of them. but the olymic campaign has been cancelled.
