Kuo is my FOAT (favorite of all time) but I haven't seen her look the same since Tokyo. I hope Kuo can have a last hurrah and podium in Paris but Luo Shu Fang is a worthy successor.
She always goes for 2kg jumps on the snatch since, making 6/6 or 5/5, I think that’s a great strategy for such a advanced athlete, she’ll do something different, esp on the C&J
I think Kuo had a good run, definitely approaching retirement, considering her performance post-Tokyo. A lot of rising stars coming forth. Btw great video!
Just to note: I understand there were other things that went into the decline of Greek Weightlifting. Things like doping scandals rocked the team in 2008 definitely didn't help. You don't have to be coaching to be a promoter of the sport. It definitely does help to do 200KG hang snatch or a 255KG push jerk though.
Luo Shifang is pretty much unbeatable wouldn't be surprised if she beats kuo's 140kg clean and jerk record. At least kuo still has her 58kg record that can't be taken away.
Lucrieza Magistris made on Olympics was Miracle Luck .She placed 12th Qualifier and Total 217 way down from Top 10 ,All 3 Female Italian didn't made Big Clean&Jerk
I wonder after this Olympics if they will get more aggressive about drug testing or if they will do what they do now and seemingly just let people take drugs.

Hopefully kuo can podium but she isn’t coming close to beating luo that’s for sure

Seriously her and Kamil Kucera (and Mart Seim) had the stars align to get them into the Olympics.

I think it depends on how bad it is and what kind of reaction they get from the IOC. They are on thin ice with them.

Alright. What's the payout for Lucrezia earning a medal?

what if they finally decide to remove Olympic Weighlifting from the Olympics
Weightlifting will be part of the Olympics until 2028 at the very least.
Weightlifting is actually pretty popular right now. Probably bigger than it has been in many many years. I think through sheer popularity it will stay
