The fight lasted one and a half minutes.





Another strange fight "on equal terms" took place at the Olympics in Paris. However, there is no one to blame here, since the South Korean team itself put up against the legendary French judoka Teddy Riner (height 204 cm, weight - 145 kg) 175-centimeter athlete Lee Yong-hwan, who competes in the category up to 81 kg.

The outcome of the fight was known in advance. The Korean wrestler had nothing to counter the giant Riner. As a result, the fight ended in one and a half minutes. Riner won by ippon.



It is noted that the South Korean team had a more or less suitable opponent for Riner - Kim Min Chung, competing in the weight category over 100 kg. However, the Koreans did not explain why they put a judoka against the French wrestler, who was inferior to his opponent in weight by more than 60 kg.



After five matches, the French team reached the semi-finals of the team tournament, defeating the Koreans with a score of 4:1.





Teddy Riner is the first ever four-time Olympic champion in judo, as well as the most decorated judoka in Olympic history. He has four golds and two bronzes.
