STRONGEST MAN
He competed in the world's strongest man competition before starting to focus on weightlifting. "My favourite [event] was the 'Yoke'. It's when you lift a bar that has very heavy weights on each end and try to run as far as you can with them. My best was 25 metres with 420 kilos. I did all of the events. It was a very good part of my life but the Olympics is better." (bangkokpost.com, 17 Aug 2016)

GOLDEN UPGRADE
He initially finished second in the 105kg category at the 2011 World University Games in Shenzhen, People's Republic of China, but he was upgraded to gold after Egyptian athlete Mohamed Masoud was disqualified due to a doping violation. (origo.hu, 30 Nov 2011)
