Bonnie breaks his world record at World Para Powerlifting Championships

The record is his second after the 2021 World Para Powerlifting Championships Dubai

5:42 PM MYT

 

KUALA LUMPUR — National powerlifting ace and World Record holder Bonnie Bunyau Gustin produced another sensational performance at the World Para Powerlifting Championships in Dubai yesterday. 

He managed to erase his own World Powerlifting Record in the men’s up to 72 kg category.

The Sarawakian who started with a massive 210 kg first attempt which was almost thrice his body weight of 71.2 kg, added 10 kg more in the next round before hitting the new world record mark of 231 kg.

Donato Telesca from Italy who cleared 202 kg was a distant second to take home the silver while Uzbekistan powerlifter Bekzod Jamilov claimed the bronze with a lift of 200kg.

The record was the second for the 24-year-old powerlifter, as he had lifted 230 kg at the 2021 World Para Powerlifting Championships in Fazza, Dubai on June 11, 2021.

He was quoted as saying that there was no secret to the world record since it would serve as a motivation to work hard and come up with improved performances in the future.

After two days of elite competitions, China are on top with four medals, including three gold and one silver followed by Great Britain, Vietnam and Malaysia with one gold each. — August 25, 2023
