i think he is our best chance for a medal in weightlifting taking rezazadeh's spot this will be very sad and different not too see rezazadeh in the competition anymore and sharifi even if he wins it wont be the same but as all i still wish him good luck and hope that he brings us a medal

it's nearly impossible.

People in group A are way more experienced and powerful than him.

TO be realistic the best he will get is to lift the highest total in group B, which is basically group A's start off amount.

He need to pull 200 on snatch and 240 on C&J to have the smallest chance at a medal.
