Team Iran sharp as always... loved it

[@grimmister]

The snatches are comparatively low? The 81kg bodyweight class, had results that weren't far off...

[@goodebening6564]

tian tao and sohrab moradi would haven been the top 2 in this weight class

[@OnkelTomAngelriper]

What?!?!?

[@goodebening6564]

@@OnkelTomAngelriper if you look at their results then moradi would be first and tian tao second

[@haroldpepete]

Same thing i was going to say, moradi lifted 186 snatch and 230 c&J

[@jamesw512]

Yeah, that's the thing with the non Olympic categories, there aren't as many great lifters, but it's still insane that Sohrab would clean house here.

[@johnescobar9951]

Today djuraev is strongest

[@muellernikolai8630]

I cried when Ilya didn't compete

[@MonsterhunterFTWWTF]

Clarence kennedy would be competitive at this weight class no? 187.5kg snatch at 103kg would make him competitive for 175+ snatch in comp and 225 clean and jerk would be gunning for a 210+ in comp.

Clarence isn’t natty (he said it in a faq)

@@holylifter1604 to be fair, in those non olympic classes there might be some genetic freak who is clean, but i doubt it, and that dude certainly isn't winning anyway

Djuraev lifted in 2019 16 kilos more than he lifted in 2018, this guy looks like a big rival to martyrosian at 109 kilos category, he was the second best lift in 2019 only behind martyrosyan, he has to improve at stanch, one funny thing is in two years he lift more than Yang

[@johnzhao4641]

Now he does 185 237

[@haroldpepete]

yes and Djuraev won in tokio 2020, djuraev is amazing

@@haroldpepete Dujuraev was wrong in lifts that he dominates very well or else the difference would have been greater, Djuraev year after year improves impressivle, look at what he lifted in 2018 and 2019 and asiatic games in 2021

[@muellernikolai8630]

[@johnescobar9951]

[@PkinJourne]
