Moradi and Tiao numbers destroyed the 102kg category numbers

[@danielhenderson762]

Non oly classes always get destroyed by the class below

[@muellernikolai8630]

Tian's clean is out of this world

[@jowo__]

Gotta love weightlifting. One of the few sports where fit young men like Tsikhantsou, Rivas, Boady, etc. get stomped on by dad-bod sensation Sohrab Moradi, never change weightlifting, never change.

[@slashnagy6]

Are you possibly justifying your own? Tian doesn’t have a dad-bod and he’s always been neck and neck with Moradi

[@jowo__]

@@slashnagy6 lol I'm just having a giggle man

[@notyouraveragemo5621]

Sohrab Moradi does it like he loves it.. Really sharp and unique , just like what the commentator said '' He is working in his own universe ''

[@sanki7087]

The moment when Tian Tao came out for that 236 kg c&j(even almost made it) was just phenomenal

[@ben0815]

23:02 When your girlfriend is home alone, but you have a weightlifting meet to finish.

[@virdipurbakala9052]

Man, either that man is on cocaine or he just too happy to compete there.

[@DiegsFCB]

Dude, I fucking died at this comment

[@samuelmassicotte9645]

But he really looks drugged out of his mind

[@haroldpepete]

i have seen this video more than 30 times, Morady's strenght is amazing, i hope see him soon in 2021 iwf championship, 100% healthy to see his best performance

[@joshuastephens1323]

Man I love Tian but that double-bounce gives a big advantage in the acceleration of the jerk, it'd break my heart but I'd probably red light it

[@rhysharvey4779]

Tian Tao is amazing but yes that lift should have been red lighted. Can't believe judges passed such an obvious double dip. 😕

[@danielhenderson762]

@@rhysharvey4779 well there is a an ongoing issue with iwf corruption. We might have witnessed some of that corruption here. Or how Lu 165 snatch in tokyo wasn't vetoed by the jury

[@NoorKhan-wi2de]

Moradi is special it’s almost too easy for him

[@jmcsquared18]

If Moradi hit that 237kg clean and jerk, he would've went over 420kg total. That would've looked good even in the super category. And he's in the 96kg. That is bonkers.

[@nathanielsablan2474]

How does moradi have a gut and still be the same weight as slim guys like pliesnoi. Is he that short?

[@aminerachid464]

Can someone tell why the IWF created new weight categories ?

[@muellernikolai8630]

to wipe off records and give a chance to new guys (as some categories were completely hopeless for example noone came even close to xiaojun in the 77). Also since they get tighter on doping control the weights are going slightly down so they don't want old records to stay untouched forever

[@thegreatdogzilla5855]

@@muellernikolai8630 77kg record snatch will always be amazing.

[@TsarNicholas2nd]

Yeah even in the 81kg category no one will snatch north of 177kg in 2024 even

[@slashnagy6]

Why did Tian leave the 89kg class? I don’t remember there being any real competition

[@Handlelelba]

Karlos nassar

[@TheChukso]

need to know guys, does Moradi has a thing on his spine? like when he is ready to lift his shoulders looks unalaigned, and when doing the clean his body moves to the right... pretty strange, anyway he is a beast

[@IvanOfficial01]

How tall are the 3 tallest and 3 shortest in this competition?

[@haroldpepete]

when you could see iwf world championship live for free, weightlifting house destroys this sport

[@familyaccount6491]

What is the rule about the moving arm at about 12:30 with the iranian? He made it in the end, so i don't get it.

[@weewoo4051]

Mr. Uncertain he bent his elbow

[@Robert-ig6zh]

Jesse Oseafiana against the rules? -.-

[@slashnagy6]

Oly lifting today is basically “whose body responds to PEDs the best?”

[@halvieyra6141]

23:08 when the crack kicks in

[@johnsontan345]

Cant wait to see them face off again at tokyo 2020.

[@haroldpepete]

Moradi had a surgery on his back, maybe he is not the same after this

[@snakepham]

2021

[@Lorneehax37]

Hate to tell you this but…

[@danielhenderson762]

Rip

[@rhysharvey4779]

Moradi is totally in his own league in competition 👌

[@haroldpepete]

Not anymore, Tian Tao just make the transition to this category, in next match the thing will be really interesting
