Competitions with a total

40 of 41

The other ended without a total: no good lift in the snatch or the clean and jerk.

Morea Baru made 65% of snatch attempts and 57% of clean and jerk attempts at the competitions on this site, against 58% and 56% for every lifter at senior World Championships and Olympic Games since 1998. Below, each attempt in turn. Third attempts are the hardest: lifters ask for their heaviest weight last.

The lifters Morea Baru has met most often in the same class, three times or more with both posting a total, and how often each finished ahead.

Rival	Met	Morea Baru ahead	Rival ahead
Elson Brechtefeld	9	7	2
Muhamad Aznil Bidin	7	0	7
Ianne Guiñares	7	6	1
Takirua Betero	7	7	0
Li Fabin	6	0	6

Every result, newest first, with all six attempts. A struck-through weight is a missed attempt and a dash an attempt not taken. A dash under Total means no total was recorded, and "No lifts" that the lifter was entered but did not lift. Places are for the total. A row that names two events was one competition scored for both; its places can differ because each ranks its own field.
