1992: Ibragim Samadov, Ussr
Ibragim Samadov is a former Chechen weightlifter who represented the Soviet Union in the 1992 Barcelona Summer Olympics. The gold medal match was so close that they needed two tiebreakers, but both left Samadov in third place with a bronze. At the ceremony, he dropped the medal onto the podium and left, resulting in him being disqualified from competing and receiving lifetime bans from the Olympics and the International Weightlifting Federation.

Not really.
The 1984 Olympics was the last to turn a profit.
Mmm.. I can smell your privilege from here.

Ali: *does the same thing 22 years later but gives it kitschy name "rope-a-dope," becomes a legend
Not a xenophobe or anything like it. Frankly I find this ironic considering.....
Also,
Im sorry Japan.. these idiots and their stupid covid games have had a negative impact on you hosting the games... i am sure if everything was normal and these idiots wouldnt be such liars and bad influences - you would make every other country that hosted the olympics look like children playing in a sandbox in comparison. (Regarding ceremony and whatever) - you guys are awesome:)
Also- the guy who had thc in his system - lol - he should have gotten a head start
