67,5KG | 1990 | World Weightlifting Championships (Budapest, Hungary)

4th session of World Weightlifting Championships 1990 (Budapest, Hungary). In the 67,5kg's category... first north korean overall golg medal in history of weightlifting world championships. Predistions before competition: "The european champ, Yoto Yotov will be the first" - journalists "Yotov has the biggest chance for to win. My competitor, Valery Yurov isn't in his best shape, 4th place would be enough for him" - Vasily Alexeev (URS head coach) In the snatch: North korean Kim Myong-Nam (asian champ of that year) was the leader with 5kg gap. Can maybe Yotov win with a great jerk, like as other bulgarian lifters? For surprise, no. Moreover, the other north korean Li Hi-Bong wins the jerk with his opening attempt (and lower bodyweight), and he didn't make more attempt. So Kim Myong-nam (PRK) becomes the first north korean world champ in weightlifting in the total. After competition interviews: Gold medalist - Kim Myong Nam (PRK, 21 yo.): "I'm satisfied with my total result,, but to be honest, I'd liked to go for snatch world record. I can't make jerk more at the moment, sadly there was to much rest time (5 lifters) between my lifts and it wasn"t too good for my muscles." Silver medalist - Yoto Yotov (BUL, 21 yo.): "I'm not satisfied with my results, I can lift much more (157,5 + 190). Sadly, I've got cold in the last weeks and it had consequence for my strength; I was able to jerk only 182,5kg at my last trainings. Today, I jerked 180kg for my 2nd attempt and I didn't have hope for more." Bronze medalist - Li Hi-Bong (PRK, 28 yo.): "I'm satisfied with my results and my place. My best c&j was 192,5kg at training, but not in a shape like now. After the Asian Games, I had not to much time to prepare. That's the reason why I didn't try my last two c&j attempt, I wasn't prepare for it, so I had no choice." /Hungarian dub. All videos will be between 35-45 min./ Watch it & enjoy! Competitors: 1.
