A guy from Turkiye here. Having met Naim and talked to him, I agree. He was supremely talented from a very young age, far more talented than any other weightlifter. And he was at his prime already at the age of 20. But, he did not fully preserve that top performance, maybe to a certain extent upto 1996. I agree that Leonidas made great improvement over time and was almost as good as Naim in 1996. And in 2000, don't forget Peshalov. Both of these guys were far behind Naim in 1992 Barcelona. They caught him and then in 2000... Naim was smoking in February 2000 before the olympiads in Sydney. Finally, the common point of all these guys is that compared to today's weightlifters, they were far better, and they were also very humble.

Just to show how insane Naim's 1988 performance was, he won the gold in 60kg category with a total of 342.5kg (152.5kg+190kg). In the next weight division (67.5kg), Joachim Kunz won the gold with a total of 340kg (150kg+190kg). So, Naim could have competed in the 67.5kg body weight division and still won the gold. As far as I know, Naim is the only weightlifter to achieve this in an Olympic competition.

I am Bulgarian, the reason there were so many good weightlifters coming from Bulgaria in the past was that we had a very good weightlifschool headed by the coach Ivan Abadzhiev. He trained both Naim Suleymanoglu (Наим Сюлейманоглу) and Halil Mutlu (Халил Мутлу), as well as other Bulgarian weightlifters - Norair Nurikyan, Yordan Bikov, Andon Nikolov, Yanko Rusev, Asen Zlatev who won gold at the Olympics. Also at the time the socialist one party state invested lots of money in sport and encouraged participation in sport at all levels.

In my humble opinion Lasha is a talented lifter. He's done things nobody else has ever achieved in the superheavyweight class. On the other hand, it's a bit early to declare him the greatest of all time, don't you think? Putting him over names like Alexeev, Taranenko, Kurlovich, Pisarenko, Krastev, Welker, Chemerkin, Botev, Marchokov and so on... What's the point of that? Lasha had no serious competition to face since the Rio Olympics. As for that list, in my humble opinion its value is questionable at best. It is that way because many talented lifters are missing. Where are the Soviet and Bulgarian lifters of the 1970s? The lifters of the 1960s? Not a single Bulgarian lifter of the 1980s. Except for Naim of course. Do not neglect the Soviet and Bulgarian weightlifting teams of the 1980s. Back then there was real competition in the different weight classes. The only unbeatable man was the late Naim Suleimanoglu. Speaking of interesting weightlifting in the superheavyweight class, have in mind the following. 1987 World Championships. 1996 Olympics. 1999 World championships. 2000 Olympics. 2008 Olympics. Making such a list is a waste of time because all the lifters of the past and the present have grown in quite different conditions. The rules have even changed. List of banned substances. Of this particular list one thing is for certain. Halil Mutlu and Naim Suleimanoglu are, two legends of the sport, have become what they are today thanks to the Bulgarian specialists and mostly Ivan Abadzhiev and Enver Turkileri (Tolumov).

How does Lasha get excluded from this list. I think before his career is over and done he will move into second or third all time. He has completely changed the game in the 109+ category. His snatch weight is 9kg more than the next closest human being! (Just shy of 20lbs)…also his top C&J is 267kg! Next closest in history is 264kg. He’s a monster and people speak about his size being his great strength, but to have the level of mobility he has in a 6’6” (1.83m) frame is absolutely ridiculous. His dominance in the 109+kg weight class cannot be overstated.

I am glad you based on performance on the world and olympic level, and base on "pound for pound" in their respected classes. It nice you have included Tommy Kono from Hawaii on your list, and the only American to excel in his time. I had the pleasure to have Tomny Kono train in those hay days, and the endless stories and inspirations he shared with us. Aloha and Take Care!

Dimas May have won more medals But you need to understand that Naim Retired a few times during his career and was begged to come back. He would of won Gold in 1984 if Bulgaria participated and his heart was not in it in 2000 as he got ahead of himself with minimal training and a optimistic snatch weight. He lifted 3x his body weight so many times at 17 years old!. The Man was a legend and I was blessed to meet him as my father was part of the crew In Melbourne who helped him defect to Turkey. Great video .May he rest in peace

Naim was a lifting machine. To the manner born, as they say. I recall Issac Berger's world record of 336 pounds in the clean and jerk in the same weight class (60k). Berger did that in Tokyo in 1964, and it stood for a number of years. Drug use was prevalent then, though not what it became later on. By the way, Miyake did the same weight at those Olympics but Berger did it first and therefore was credited with the world record.

I can see why you didn't mention him bc he hasn't won as many Olympic gold medals, yet. But Lasha undoubtedly has to be on this list. The biggest total ever posted, by far. Routinely beats almost every other Olympic gold total in training. Unbeaten since 2015.
@abdulhananhusein6459
@abdulhananhusein6459 Год назад
just to appreciate Naim vs Lasha, Lasha is 183 kg powerful man, but his clean and jerk record is 267 kg, less than 1.5 times body weight, to achieve what Naim has achieved he has to lift 550 kg clean and jerk, his total is under 500kg, the man said: pound for pound, how much weight each KG of muscle could carry
