WORLDS 2026 NINGBO | INSANE 110+ & Commentary Desk! | Episode 9

Finally, it's the last day, the last day. Thanks God. Just a few moments before we said we are here for the World Championship and now 16 days. We witnessed all that and today is the last men heavyweight session. And the only thing that we will do today is just enjoying the lifts, discuss them. Probably someone will impress us. What do you think? Who will be? Who will be? Who will be? The most likely exciting snatch is going to be Aliyev. If we're lucky, 220, but, you know, 215 would be exciting. And then clean and jerk, Ali Reza Yousafi, 262. Yeah, I think so. This is the plan. Wow. Welcome everybody to the final day in Ningbo. The heaviest, strongest men in the world. This is the plus 110 kilos. Category, it's the 2026 IWF World Weightlifting Championships. Now the two-time world champion, multiple-time European champion here to defend his crown, Arzad Aliyev from Armenia. That's good. That's good. We know that he can be wobbling in the catch. We know that he is ready to fight for this weight. We have a good lift for Team Uzbekistan, 185. This time we are representing Team Ukraine on the senior stage. He had experience competing at the Junior World Championship back in 2022. He was third. He's an enormous man, full of strength and power. This will be nine kilo personal best. That's better than his opening attempt. This is a great lift. Yeah, he's gonna be happy with that. Yeah, and we can hear from the venue, like, ooh, 195. 195 If this successful, it can influence on the whole competition flow very much. Yep, new personal best for the heaviest weightlifter ever. Wow, absolutely fast. Fantastic. This gives us an assumption that in clean and jerk with this reserve of strength. Yeah, I think we're going to see something big today. He is very dangerous. Two time world champ. Oh, it's a tough opener. But it's a good lift. Unbelievable. Just different level to what we've just seen. 210 kilos on the bar. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. We have five attempts remained in snatch and this is one of them. The second for Team Armenia. The last time he didn't make as much as this was seven competitions ago. Much better than his opener. But I guess he's recognizing that he's got a real fight. Yeah, he is realizing that and it forces him to do real job. Hold, hold. Technically, physically and mentally he is ready for more, but they're just playing a smart game. 214 kilos on the bar. So there, Rubio has the gold then. This is a massive moment in the history of the sport. The first time we saw 220 kilos was in 2017 in Anaheim by Lasha Talakadze. No other athlete has ever done it. Historical moment, let's enjoy it. Hold it, hold it. So close. He's giving a thumbs up. He's getting a huge... It was a good attempt so far, he is in the first position with 211 kilos. We've got 10 minutes with our athletes. Wow, that's absolutely incredible. Okay. I'm kind of stunned that he went for it. That's a risky move. Because he could have taken 215 and carried a nice lead into the clean and jerk. Now he's only got one kilo on Lalian. Yeah, but he has 16 kilos over Alireza, 5 kilos over Davoudi. Gold to Team Iraq. Ali Ammar, 206, 211, and his first ever attempt at 220 kilos in the snatch. He will make it. At some point, it's going to happen, but not today. But he's still the gold medalist. In second place at 210 kilos is the two-time world champ, Razgatul Lalyan. He looked very good, just missed the 214, but 210 was strong. No problem. And then in bronze, Ali Daboudi. 206 kilos, just a hair away from 210. Wow. Clean and Jerk will be hot. Clean and Jerk is going to be exciting because Ali Reza Yousafi made 195 kilos. Introducing the Greek program, Olympic weightlifting from the golden era. Real fans remember the Greek dream team. Our team took the core principles of their training and built a six-week program adapted for today's athletes. 6 weeks, 5 days a week, heavy lifts at 90-100%, almost every session. Train with it or study it. Your call. Not for beginners, enjoy the golden era! Thank you, Eric. Welcome back to the second part of the competition, man, super heavyweight, Are you ready? here at the World Championship for China, and we are ready to see this blood, water, stick fight for the medal in clean and jerk, and in total, are we clean? You know he's a big fighter and jerk. Let's go, Sharov. This is a solid benchmark and we have to announce that the new star is born here at this world championship by getting the title of world champion, showing amazing results. And of course we are super disappointed by the things that we saw from the rest of the race. What do you think about that? Ali Akbar, very, very good, very strong, 220 was close, very impressive in the clean and jerk as well, Ali Reza, robbed by the jury, but he still made it, so, very impressive to get a silver in the total after being so far behind in the snatch. Do you think referees are in danger after this? Yeah, there will be a revolution. I guess this is the last video of...
