What Are The Odds to Win Men's Weightlifting 73KG, 81KG Tokyo Olympics

Shi Zhiyong is the big -1500 favorite to win the Men's Weightlifting 73KG, but there is some better betting value with the 81KG competition on Friday July 30.

Odds to Win Gold Men's Weightlifting 73KG

Shi Zhiyong -1500

Clarence Cummings +1000

Bozhidar Andreev +700

Julio Mayora +1500

Lu Xiaojun is still a decent favorite at -250 but one can get Antonino Pizzolator paying close to 2-1 odds.

Xiaojun is an Olympic champion and five time world champion representing China. He began competing in the 81 kg starting in 2018 after the International Weightlifting Federation reorganized the categories.

Pizzolato is an Italian weightlifter who won the gold medal in the clean & jerk and total at the 2019 European Weightlifting Championships in the 81 kg category.
