Yanko Rusev (BUL) came in as the favorite as the world record holder and 1978-79 World Champion. Rusev took the lead with a snatch of 147.5 kg, matched by Daniel Senet (FRA), but Rusev`s world record clean & jerk of 195.0 kg brought him the expected gold medal, and a world record total of 342.5 kg. Senet dropped off the podium, with Joachim Kunz (GDR) winning silver and Mincho Pachov (BUL) the bronze.
None would compete in 1984 because of the Soviet-led boycott, but Kunz would return and win the gold medal in this class at Seoul in 1988.
