DOHA. Dec. 6 (Xinhua) -- The battle in the women's over 75kg category in the weightlifting worlds will probably be remembered for a long time as Mu Shuangshuang of China beat Jang Mi Ran of South Korea for the first time in two years by breaking the world record on Wednesday.

    Mu, 22, managed to overcome Jang with a whooping total of 317kg, four kilograms more than the silver medallist. Mu also broke the world record of the snatch at 139kg, one kilograms more than the original mark set by Jang in May

    The bronze medal went to Thailand's Annipa Moontar, who lifted 117kg in the snatch and 148kg in the jerk for a total of 265kg.

    At the last two world championships, the 23-year-old Jang and Mu lifted the same weight, but Jang won on both occasions because of her lighter bodyweight.

    As the Olympic silver medallist Jang attempted to lift 182kg in the clean and jerk, she needed to post the same 317kg combined total as Mu, having trailed by 4kg after the Chinese lifter's World and Asian record of 139kg in the snatch.

    Jang had the bar above her head, but could not raise it for a valid lift and it dropped behind her to hand Mu the gold medal.

    "I am extremely excited to beat Jang for the first time in two year. I think I can win over her again in the future," Mu said.

    "I didn't have enough training recently, and my result here is even one kilogram lower than what I lifted in the world championships this October," Jang said.

    After the world championships, Jang took part in the National Games and she said she felt tired and had no time to have a good rest.

    "There are still a lot of events before the Olympic Games in 2008, and I still have chances to take the crown back," Jang added.

    "My goal is winning the gold medal in the Beijing Olympics."
