Ruslan Nuridinov nearly beat Ilya at the 2014 World Championships and is making a run at the Champ in Rio this August. This past weekend Nuridinov competed at the Asian Championships as heavy 105/light 105+ and finished 6/6 with a 191kg/421lb snatch and a 235kg/518lb clean & jerk.
For a guy whose competitive career ended almost 8 years ago, that's pretty strong.

We all know Sam Dancer is strong, but this year he looks like a totally different beast. He's lean, strong, and seems ready to make a run at the Games.
