Lasha Talakhadze’s Career

Lasha Talakhadze is a weightlifting super heavyweight who has won it all. He is the 5x world super heavyweight champion, 5x European super heavyweight champion, and a 2x Olympic champion. And now he holds every world record in the history of the super heavyweight category. Lasha’s 267-kilogram (588.6 pounds) clean & jerk surpassed Leonid Taranenko‘s 266-kilogram (286.4-pound) lift in the +110-kilogram class, who won gold in the 1980 Olympic Games.

At 28-years-old, Lasha Talakhadze still has some time left, even though he accomplished everything. It looks like he only competes against himself, and maybe Lasha could be the first person to get a 500 kg (1102.3 lbs) total, as he only needs to add 8 kg (17.6 lbs) to do it.
