# Campionati mondiali di sollevamento pesi 1972

I Campionati mondiali di sollevamento pesi 1972, 46ª edizione della manifestazione, si svolsero a Monaco di Baviera dal 27 agosto al 6 settembre 1972. Il torneo faceva parte dei Giochi della XX Olimpiade e, per la terza volta, erano validi anche per il titolo mondiale.
A differenza delle Olimpiadi di Tokyo 1964 e di Città del Messico 1968, i titoli mondiali furono assegnati per la prima volta, nell'ambito della competizione olimpica, oltre che nel totale dell'esercizio, anche nelle specialità della disciplina. Fu inoltre l'ultima volta che la distensione lenta fu presente nel programma di sollevamenti.

## Squalifiche

Nella gara dei pesi mosca (fino a 52 kg.) Mohammad Reza Nasehi inizialmente si piazzò al 10º posto, ma fu squalificato per essere risultato positivo all'efedrina; nella gara dei pesi leggeri (fino a 67,5 kg.) Walter Legel inizialmente si piazzò al 15º posto, ma fu squalificato per essere risultato positivo alle anfetamine.
