The favorites in this class were Peter Wenzel (GDR), the 1975 World and European Champion, and Yordan Mitkov (BUL), runner-up to Wenzel at both meets in 1975.
They were tied after the snatch with 145.0 kg, also matched by Soviet lifter Vartan Militosyan (URS), but Mitkov's clean & jerk of 190.0 kg brought him the gold medal, with Militosyan placing second and Wenzel winning bronze.
Dragomir Cioroslan (ROU) originally placed fourth but was disqualified for a doping positive for fencanfamine, a stimulant.
