On December 29, Beijing time, weightlifting, which had previously been excluded from the core events of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games, ushered in a new turning point.
Espn pointed out in an article about boxing and triathlon competitions that the event for the 2028 Olympics is set for 2023. If you can improve your project before then, you can be re-accepted. Boxing, modern pentathlon, and weightlifting.
It has previously been reported that at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, the number of weightlifting events will change from the current 14 to 10. But then, weightlifting was taken out of the core project. This means that the 2024 Olympic Games are likely to become the best song of weightlifting competitions. But now it seems that they still have a chance.
Media like ESPN are more focused on Olympic sports than we think, after they were tracking the Olympics' unpopular competitions. In October this year, they were also the first to reveal that weightlifting, boxing and other sports were reported by someone, and it was possible to leave the big stage of the Olympic Games.
Recently, they have set their sights on triathlon, which is also a fringe event of the Olympic Games.
With the Tokyo Olympics being criticized indefinitely, triathlons are no better than boxing and weightlifting. But in order to be able to expand their influence, they are actively seeking new matches.
Boxing and modern pentathlon, which are also excluded from the core events of the 2028 Olympic Games, are also actively seeking self-help, but the International Juju Federation has still not changed.
ESPN broke the news that the International Olympic Committee will decide the events of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games in 2023. This means that there are less than 2 years to go before the project is finalized.
Previously, the veteran competitions boxing, modern pentathlon and weightlifting have been blocked from the 2028 Olympic Games for different reasons. But instead of blocking the road, the IOC left them a trail.
The three projects are different, their problems are not small, and they are very difficult to solve. Unlike emerging projects in areas such as karate, boxing and weightlifting are actually more concerned.
The change in weightlifting in 2024 is not a big impact on the Chinese team.
There are 14 places for Chinese players in 14 events, and there are only 8. After 14 to 10, if the overall quota of Chinese players remains unchanged, the gold point will not change much. In addition, due to the age of many athletes and the number of injuries, they had no intention of going to Paris.
In some new projects, the Chinese team has excellent players, such as Hubei's Tian Tao.
But the Los Angeles Olympics are different, first, the venue is in North America, and the Chinese team is likely to encounter crazy challenges from other opponents. Under such a premise, any gold winning point becomes extremely important.
As long as the weightlifting competition stays, even if there are not many projects, for the Chinese team, it is the guarantee of the gold medal.
The most positive change at the moment is boxing, and the control of the game is the problem of the handicap, which has been plaguing boxing. It is expected that they will increase the number of referees and manage referees in detail.
The weightlifting competition is the hardest hit area for drug testing. In the future, if there is a set of strict management methods to strengthen the drug testing of athletes, especially the drug testing of low-level players, the possibility of weightlifting return is still very high.
However, in this way, the funds for the weightlifting competition will also go up. Most of the players who did not get a good ranking hope were instead difficult to pass the drug test.
