46:37 Li Fabin is a beast.

[@mambutuomalley2260]

Loved watching Ceniza. So much passion and joy. Such an entertaining athlete to watch.

[@JohnDoherty-dl2fz]

Hamp’s record is the first senior men’s record in 55 years. I hope I don’t have to wait another 55 for the next one. In 2079 I’ll be 119 years old. I don’t like those odds.

[@JohnDoherty-dl2fz]

For USA I should have added.

[@BenDodson-id8em]

That's longer than I care to commit to this venture.

[@nattyfatty6.0]

22:46 That was awesome

[@christianwijaya6906]

Eko Yuli Irawan competed for 5th Olympics ,He's 35 this year and Cut to 61 was Huge Task with Injury different then at Full 67 last 2023 put Big Lift

[@tyrenlifting]

Records just being broken left and right and I love it ❤

[@JohnDoherty-dl2fz]

Irawan was able to beat back his younger countryman which not automatic. Now he has a reasonable chance of a fifth Olympic medal though I give the inside track to Li, Morris, and Massida. If he’s able to accomplish that it would be quite extraordinary though not quite as exceptional as 3 golds which has been achieved 5 times in the men’s category. Just competing in 5 Olympics is quite rare. He’s never won gold however.

[@eldigitom9680]

Good show, great coverage...thx!

[@SuperMortiki]

Amazing, wonderful to see USA back in the running, especially so young!

[@churn_diesel]

WOW

[@richardlawton1023]

Norbert was who I bought my first shoes from. He had an add in the back of International Olympic Lifter. That was 20+ years ago.

[@melvinpartridge688]

With what and how is that platform constructed to take those weights dropping on it many times

[@Lancentcx]

Looking at his body frame, I'm not sure Morris can stay at this weight class as he gets older and bulks up but if so he will be a top contender for many years.

[@JohnDoherty-dl2fz]

Lancent. I’m sure he’s going to go 67 right after Olympics. He has already competed at 67 for a couple internationals late last year-weighed 66+ at Dohar. Hopefully 2028 LA will include the 67 kg class.

just 19 yers❤

[@hafusan]

hey everyone, new fan here who usually only watches the women's sessions (I am a female!). I am wondering about some very different issues I see in this category, namely the side walking and losing balance/strength on their left (I assume non-dominant side). I can't recall seeing this often in the women's categories at all. Does someone have an explanation or a theory about it? Thanks!

[@gunawankaka2484]

🎉

[@Oliver-fu6ig]

42:30 Could someone explain why Saputra Ricko was "no lift" twice? I don't know much about the sport.

[@thecasualtheologian7900]

Essentially when he hit the bottom of the snatch, you can see his right arm buckle and bend a bit. This is called a "press out" and even though he technically stood the lift up, the judges would look at his arm and see the buckle and call that a no lift because he didnt hit the bottom position fully "locked out". Its definitely a tough break and very unfortunate!

[@yuanmei2477]

Chen Lijun is -61kg now? I didn't know this lol

[@diego61422]

36:40 wtf is this bs again smh

[@sokjeong-ho7033]

John Febuar Ceniza looks exactly like Sheen from Jimmy Neutron

[@ClintWalker37]

See, this thumbnail makes sense to.

[@nattyfatty6.0]

44:56 Why does it matter what singlet he's wearing?

[@khmak9387]

Why do lifters go down in weight class? When they're no longer competitive in the higher one?

[@SomeSeriousWeight]

Some classes are Olympic while others are not as such some think it's easier to cut than it is to bulk. Or other reasons. For example Akbar Djuraev bulked to the supers but got back issues that cutting to the 102s helped with.

[@JohnDoherty-dl2fz]

Plus Akbar is a lot more competitive at 102 than as a super. He can sacrifice dessert for the next few months in order to have a good chance at a medal at Paris. He was unlikely to get one in the supers.

[@JohnDoherty-dl2fz]

If Hamp the Champ gets a medal it will be the first US male medal since 1984 when we got a silver and bronze. That was however the year of the Soviet bloc boycott who had their own games. A much forgotten lifter Lee James in 1976 won silver behind David Rigert in the 90 kg class (165-197.5) the last time a US lifter competed with everyone there. Yeah I know about North Korea this year but they gotta play by the rules like everyone else. Lee James was a great lifter but only for a couple years because of knee problems just 2 years later at the age of 24.

[@iamcannonball]

Congrats to Hampton Morris. This was electric

[@shprints84]

Unbelievable american weightlifter!

[@necipokanozaydn6215]

61 kgs category has been created to make humanity forget Naim's unforgottable records in 60 kgs. Okay, then let's transform 100 meters dashes to 101 meters and forget Bolt's 9.58

[@tomm5765]

60kg 190kg WR c&j am I reading that correctly?? 342 total, that's miles ahead of these guys. Whats the deal?

[@necipokanozaydn6215]

@@tomm5765 u can watch his 60/190 and totally 342.5 videos by writing "pocket hercules 190 kgs" on Google 😳👍😀

[@jmcsquared18]

Kick out the press out. It's the dumbest rule ever and ruins the sport.

[@nattyfatty6.0]

Hampton more like Trenton

[@garyponce52]

the problem with releasing a video of an event that happened month ago is that you lost interest over time - i was itching to watch these closer to the timing of the event but only got highlights of one particular lift. didn't even bother watching this - just wanted to comment .

[@patricklang7162]

lol doesn’t really seem like a super exciting category when you have 300 misses at 130. Glad to see Hamp the champ putting US back in the running though. Pee Wee Hermpton
