gabriel eduardo lama valenzuela -lrb- born march 2 , 1974 in santiago -rrb- is a chilean judoka , who competed in the men 's middleweight category .
he picked up a total of twelve medals in his career , including a bronze from the 2002 south american games in rio de janeiro , brazil , and represented his nation chile in the 90-kg class in two editions of the olympic games -lrb- 2000 and 2004 -rrb- .
lama made his official debut at the 2000 summer olympics in sydney , where he competed in the men 's 90-kg division .
in his opening match , lama conceded with a chui penalty and succumbed to yuko from azerbaijan 's rasul salimov at the end of the five-minute bout .
at the 2004 summer olympics in athens , lama qualified as a lone judoka for his second chilean squad in the men 's middleweight class -lrb- 90 kg -rrb- , by placing seventh and granting a berth from the world championships in osaka , japan .
lama failed to improve his feat from the previous games , as he received two penalties for passivity and fell in an inner-thigh throw -lrb- uchi mata -rrb- and an earth-shattering waza-ari defeat from u.s. judoka brian olson at the closure of their five-minute , first round match .
