Weightlifting

Bulgaria's Milen Dobrev lived up to his top seeding and took the gold medal in the 207-pound (94 kg) division of the Olympic weightlifting tournament.

Dobrev, the reigning world champion, made clean lifts on each of his first five tries. He failed on his sixth and final attempt but just laughed and kissed the weights, knowing his total of 898 pounds already had clinched first place.

Junior world champion Khadjimourad Akkaev, a 19-year-old Russian, took silver with a total of 893 pounds. Fellow Russian Eduard Tjukin got the bronze.
