BIG news in iranian weightlifting / 2017 World Championship in California!

Yeah no one can predict the future but the way the Georgian lifted yesterday I don't see anyone beating him soon (unless he is caught doping). It was unbelievably easy for him. I really wont be surprised if he is busted again for doping.

As for the rule changes concerning the number of weightlifters, the crown jewels are always the Olympics. These 4 max weightlifters per gender and no doubles in each weight class is awful for a country especially like Iran. We are already at a disadvantage because we don't use female weightlifters (although that may change soon) and we have historically been good at only the heavier weight classes. We have a wealth of talent at the heavier weights classes compare to the lighter weight classes and this really sucks that we can't any longer have 2 105KG+ lifters at the Olympics so no more chance at multiple Iranian lifters winning medals in the heavy classes.

We have been good in lower weights also in the past. We can get good lifter again in those classes.

People were saying the same about Rezazadeh on his prime days but he "retired" very soon, you never know in this sport. you can't predict the future. Talakhadze was an ordinary weightlifter before his doping ban, he improved A LOT (I mean A LLLLOOOTT) when he came back.

and that 1 weightlifter per weight rule is only for the Olympics, we can still have two per weight in other competitions, in fact they are going to change the weight classes completely, making it 10 (7 of them at the Olympics) and each country can qualify maximum 4 weightlifter for the Olympics, max one in each weight, very bad news for Iran indeed.

Rezazadeh got diabetes

Saw that. Even though he missed his WR snatch attempt, he looked impressive.

Unfortunately for our Iranian 105+ lifters, there is no stopping Lasha. I expect him to continue dominating for the next few years.
