he did 217/255 i believe at an unsanctioned meet

Wow, yeah. If he can make that opener look like an opener it means his C+J has made a lot of progress.

Albegov has done a very clean 250 in competition, so it seems that he could actually give Salimi trouble. As long as he matches his attempts, he could win on body weight.

the hell was that clicking noise when that georgian dude dipped?

Cameras! That's why Yury Vlasov always wore sunglasses.

Salimi is gonna have to have stepped up his C&J game to beat Albegov. This should be interesting.

LOL Velagic has a much stronger jerk than clean. Better than the other way around I guess.

I'm actually pretty surprised Salimi didn't call for 209 or more on his final snatch.

He seems pretty strong mentally; usually people can't grind out Oly lifts like that. He did the same with his snatches.

[jb4476]

How da fuk do guys like Sajjad manage to transition from the second pull to the catch with a gut like that?

[breathinglife]

Albegov didn't look super strong on his opener, but he didn't on snatch either...

[jb4476]

Albegov takes 240. Doesn't look easy, but dosn't look super hard either.

[jb4476]

Salimi's snatches became easier as they got heavier.

[ledinred2]

Damn, Sajjad is doing better than I expected.

[Xuaxace]

245 miss (Albegov), he sure made that clean look easy though

[jb4476]

Damn, Sajjad is doing better than I expected.

I thought that clean would rock him back but no. He stuck that ****.

[breathinglife]

Agh, Albegov missed 245. I think he has it in him, but the nerves may prove too much. I think he's got a lock on bronze, so maybe he should call for 251 on a third.

seems like he did, intradesting

What a recovery by the korean... he thought he was nuts by opening so late.

He did? I missed it. That's what I get for multitasking.

And yes, that was a sick recovery by the Korean.

[jb4476]

Damn this Korean dude is way better at the C+J than the snatch.

[breathinglife]

Moment of truth...

nvn 247, I heard 251 somewhere... (also multitasking haha)


edit: well what a shame

[breathinglife]

Salimi dropped his opener down a few kilos! ?

[jb4476]

Damn Salimi. That 247 looked easy. I wish those fuking horns would just shut up though.

[breathinglife]

Can't believe Albegov missed that. So close.

[jb4476]

Salimi dropped his opener down a few kilos! ?

Sure, why not. Only competition left is Albegeov and he only has one attempt left...and he missed at the last possible moment...and Behdad just won with his first C+J.

[feces99]

ahhh man i thought he had that jerk those are the worst types of misses

[feces99]

i think were about to see some world record attempts...

i think were about to see some world record attempts...

C'mon Salimi, call for 265!

[breathinglife]

Misload at the Olympics! LOL.

[jb4476]

i think were about to see some world record attempts...

Awwwww yeah....goddamn

[feces99]

C'mon Salimi, call for 265!

267 if he wants the true record
