I don't know what kind of fairy water I drank!
A mediocre weightlifter was able to improve his personal best by a full 39 kilograms during the Olympic Games.
His performance stunned everyone.
Ten years later, the truth is out! On March 23, Beijing time, the World Anti-Doping Agency announced that nijat Rasimov, the 2016 Rio Olympics weightlifting men's 77 kg champion from Kazakhstan, was banned for eight years for doping violations!
Six years ago, what was considered the most famous weightlifting competition in Olympic history, ended in such a "return" fashion.
Looking back to the men's 77 kg weightlifting competition at the Rio Olympics, Lu Xiaojun is recognized as a big favorite to win the championship. If all the players are playing normally, Lu Xiaojun will win the gold medal without suspense.
Strange things happened, Rasimov greatly improved his personal best in the second stand,And all the audience couldn't understand it.
In the last stand-up, Rasimov added another 12 kilograms of weight, a weight he wouldn't normally be able to grasp, let alone lift the barbell high above his head.
The miracle just happened, and Rakhimov successfully surpassed Lu Xiaojun to win the championship. At that time, many media questioned Rasimov's "power source".
Because, the total result of Rasimov winning the rio Olympics was 379 kilograms, which was a full 39 kilograms higher than his previous best.
After the Rio Olympics, Rasimov participated in all the competitions, the best result was only 344 kilograms, compared to Rio's victory, 35 kilograms less!
So, how did Rakhimov do it? It turned out that he had taken a lot of stimulants, so how did Rasimov evade a strict urine test?
The World Anti-Doping Organization revealed that on March 15, June 10, and July 16, 2016, Rasimov stole beams and columns during a urine test, exchanged urine samples with a "clean" teammate three times, and passed the test in confusion. July 16 was only 25 days away from Rakhimov's Olympic god performance.
Rasimov's teammates were wronged and banned. Now, six years later, Rasimov's real urine sample has been "discovered", and he has been nailed to the Olympic column of shame.
