    This video is a beauty Gregor! I just love watching it. I expect the Lasha – Albegov duel one of the most exciting at the olympics.

        Well,his last chance is to get a short ban which ends before the Games. That’d really make my day because he is the BEST at the moment. Not sure how likely it is though 🙁

          lame that he’s out..he “obviously” has the potential (even if he passes the test) to hit all-time numbers. 216-265 level…He was way under his peak on the snatch with 210 and 212.

      To be honest, I’d favor Lasha over Ruslan based on this performance. Just saw a side-by-side comparison video of all his C&J attempts at the Europeans and they almost looked identical, which make me wonder: How much more does he have left in the tank?! Crazy!

      • grobpote says

        Yeah,Ruslan can get uncertain in the C&J so who knows?It’s very close anyway. A failed attempt on either side and the fight can get a completely unexpected turn.
        What if Lovchev could parttake and the three of them went crazy in Rio?Wowww I can’t imagine.

          Ruslan is a winner though…he’s won lots of competitions…I would never count him out.
