She is definitely the best all-round sprinter the world has ever seen; and the best 200 meter runner.Being ranked # 1 in the world 7 times; in 65,66,67,68,74,76,77; 2nd in 64,69,73,75; 5th 78; 8th 79. In the 400 meters she was #1, 4 times; 74-77, 3rd in 78, 4th in 79. In the 100 m 2 times #1, in 67 & 74; 2nd in 65,66; 3rd in 68,73,75; 4th in 76; 6th in 69;7th in71; 8th in 78; 10th in 72. She was # 1 in 100/200/400 in 74, 200/400 in 76 & 77; 100/200 in 67. A completely outstanding record.
Yes and please Note, Irena is running since Tokio 1964 as Irena Kirszenstein for so many Years. The great Lady of Light athletics. Allround Sports from 100m to 400m and Not focus as any specialist. I miss her.
No, Koch is the best all rounder. 10.83, 21.71,47.60.
@@MirjanaLfan Koch never held the world record in all 3 events, nor was she ever ranked #1 in the world over 100 meters. Not to mention Irena, being ranked #1 in the world in all 3 events in the same year !
@@mickdenis6630 Koch is the 🐐
@@MirjanaLfan Nope...and the drugs would disqualify her away. The one redeeming thing about Marita Koch, was that she attended Irena Szewinska's state funeral in Poland.
Well don't forget she was also ranked #1 in the long jump in 66,67,69; # 2 in 64,65, 6ht in 68, 5th in 71, and 9th in 72. She was simply amazing.
Dziękujemy z całego serca królowo lekkoatletyki . R.I.P.
Wtych czasach na tym dystsnsie różnica czsow wynosila 2s w dzisiejszych czasach to pona 4.5s ten czas bylby w dzisiejszych czasach nierealny. Irena niewyglada na biegaczke krutkodystsnsowa. Czemu miala takie dobre czasy bo miala tyle samo testosteronu co mezczyzni ale robila gorsze czasy bo posiadala mniej miesci niz mezczyzni. Żadna z niej krolowa bo nie byla uczciwa. Mozesz sie ze mna nie zgodzic ale ja uznaje lekkoatletyke od ery Bolta bo wtedy przynajmniej sprawdzaja najlepszych i sa przeprowadzane od paru lat systematyczne badania antydopingowe. Dodatkowo w tych czasach porownujac plany treningowe z dzisiejszymi to mozna sie usmiechnac. Podwyzszony testosteron pozwalal jej ciezej i wiecej cwiczyc niz zawodniczka naturalnie cwiczacym. Przykladowo czemu dzisiejsze biegaczki na dystansie 400m nie sa wstanie sie zbizyc do je czasowki i sie niezbliza bo onre sa naturalne i widac ze to zawodowe sportowczyni anie chude raczki i pocharatany na boki nos przez testosteron i niewiadono co jeszcze.
To run like this on last meters drug won't help you like this woman from East Germany Marita Koch thought - it must be power of the spirit and real athletism to run like that until the very end - congratulations Szewinska!
szewinska was a true and clean athlete, real champion winning 7 or 8 olimpic medals, countless europien championships and she was a champion in 4 different individual diciplines!!! 100m, 200m, 400m, and long jump, and she was running relays as well, show me an athlete like that at these days...? you not gone find it
You got that absolutely right!!
A spectacular athlete - she was at the top of the list over 100, 200, and 400 meters...and the long jump. Amazing!!
What a great race this was, I remember it very well, so nice to see it again !
I think people might forget that Irena defeated Barbel Wockel; in the 200 meters the day before this race.
R.I.P., Mrs. Szewinska! You've run the race!
Wow wat a race.. Sameone beating Marita.. Wonderful race 👏👏👏👏👏😍
Irena Szewinska is by far the best sprint all round women's athlete in history...and she is also the cleanest. No other athlete would have such a long career as her ( 1964 - 1980 ) and still being at the top. Just look at most of the women's sprinters since then, they will only be at the top for a few years and then dissappear after being caught on peds. Szewinska was pure talent and hard work....period.
Cud. Dała radę koksowi z ddr
I remember this race... it was so exciting... what a great race she also won the 200 meters at this meet.
Irena Szewinska was ranked number on in the world 7 times over 200 meters (ranked in the top 3 from 64 to 77), 4 times over 400 meters, 2 times over 100 meters and 3 times in the long jump. She has held the world record over all 3 distances, and is the only women ever to be ranked number one in all 3 distances in the same year 1974. At the Olympics she has a Gold over 400 meters, all 3 Olympic medals over 200 meters, a bronze over 100 meters and a silver in the long jump.
29.06.2018 R.I.P [*] Dziękujemy
Fantastic video , thanx for uploading. Its not easy to see Koch in second place...Nowdays she is married with her trainer Wolfgang Meier who also trained Maria José Perec for a while. Koch lives in Rostock, Germany and manages a sport shop. She never has admited to have been under a doping program in the GDR. She even demanded the German newspaper "Der Spiegel" asking for 510.000 Euros when they acused koch for having oral turabinosi "the magic blue pills" from the GDR.
Mind that Szewińska ( her maiden name Kirszenstein) began her olympic career in 1964! First of all, there was hardly any doping in athletics in those days. Secondly, she wouldn`t have been able to continue her career for such a long time if she was just on drugs; it would`ve killed her several times before Moscow Olympics if she were. She simply was unbelievably strong and talented. Things happen!
Ha ha ha!! "There was hardly any doping in athletics in those days!" I've never heard anything so hilarious in my life. East Germany was notorious for drugs in the 1960's, 70's, and 80's. Marita Koch is a known drug cheat. Some track and field experts will tell you you Szewinska was on drugs also. I'm not sure about Szewinska. But I'm very sure about the East Germans!!
@@Awesomeknight7 Let me remind you that Germany and Poland were and are two different countries. And let's stop this pointless discussion.
@@Awesomeknight7 Never mind Koch, Kratochvilova or Fibingerova Helka. It's another story.
Btw if you could try to be more civil in your conments it would be very nice.
@@Awesomeknight7 the steroids started in the end of the sixties She is very slim and doesnt look druged. Compare her legs to griffith joyner. Her legs doubled in size. Sadly she payed the price but these world records will never be broken.
RIP Irena Szewińska, you were the best sprinter in the whole history of athletics !
She was really remarkable during a timespan of more than ten years in so many disciplines.
Look at her time and the gold medalist on the OLYMPIC games in 2012 Irena would win gold ;D
nice to watch it one of my idols is szewinska
What a finish!!!!!!!
Szewinska what talent! I think with Fanny Blankers Koen she is the female athlete of the century! I have seen this race over and over again and I am never tired of her, what a victory and what a joke for those cheating athletes! thanks for post it.
Wow Irena Szewińska is really great! I've never seen Marita Koch defeated that way in 400m race during all her career...
Judging by Koch's slight frame this was some time before PED'S turned her into an unbeatable 47.60 400m high speed stamina monster. Sadly.
The first lady of the light athletics has gone
the best ever CLEAN white sprinter !!!!!!! Great honour
Its important not to bring colour or race in this topic. It has nothing to do with it
@@amonduul2154 tu nie chodzi o rasizm (!) , ale o to , że ludzie z Afryki, czy Jamajki. .. znani są jako dobrzy biegacze, i to nie ma nic wspólnego z kolorem skóry, nikt mądry nie wywyższa się ponad inną rasę, narodowość.

@@weronikaorenczak102 In Jamaica and the United States there are no doping controls like in Europe. In Germany you get tested 4am in Holliday. In Jamaica and United States there are even no unannounced doping tests. So since the 90ies these American and Jamaicans etc sprinters have a great advantage, because they can take drugs like the Europeans in the eighties, while the European athletes can't do the same because European track and field authorities want to distance themselves from the patterns of communist, DDR etc. Sports methods of the past.

a great race where two legends of different generations meet!
Respect RIP
Marita Koch mimo że była naszprycowana dopalaczami to i tak przegrała z Szewińską. Dziękujemy pani Irenie za te wszystkie wspaniałe chwile.
Brilliant race of two of the greatest female tracks stars. Hadn't seen it before so thanks for posting it!
There was just one star here and one cheat.
RIP 29.06 2018
Requiescat in pace.
@SerchWagnerianBear She wasn't Lathan yet , when she was in Montreal.
What a wonderful athlete and woman Irena was, competing as she was against East Germans & others stoked up on drugs and male hormones.
R.I.P(:
hmmm. Wat's cool is that Irena Szewinska is my 3rd cousin. It's pretty cool. My dad actually met her and he showed me pics of her and him.
Великая!
@diverlx Ashord and Szewinska were clean !
RIP
Strange as it may sound,I wouldnt be suprised if marita koch was actually CLEAN in this race.She was lean,not that muscular,still femenine,and looked like a young martina navratilova.She nudged 50 seconds,but from 1978 onwards,she was a lot more powerful,and a hell of a lot faster.A year after this,she was running in the 48's,and completely dominating,then ran 47.6 in the 80's.She might not have started her drug regime till 1978.As for szewinska being clean,or juiced,i have no idea.
Lathan nee Brehmer did that in 1976 49.77 szewinska did a 49.75 before the montreal games and at the games beating Brehmer in 49.29 to 50.51 sliver for Brehmer so really I think your point is really trival since Irena reclaimed her world record twice in that same season...
2018
Poland still remember , the best ever. RIP Irena

Rest in peace
Prawdziwa mistrzyni z wielką klasą.

Pięknie pobiegła p.Irena Szewinska 👏 Mamy teraz godne Jej następczynie, "aniołki Matuszewskiego" , mam nadzieję, że nie przekrecilam nazwisko trenera 🤔
sure, but upload them where? They're black and white btw
,,,,,,, like the commentator said - marvelous ! ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, indeed marvelous.

Rest in peace.
Koch is very controversial!!
Of course she was controversial! It was proven about the GDR drug clinics on MOST of their top athletes and one cannot rule out Koch as being amongst them. And yes, Flo Jo, Kratochvilova, Brisco etc are all suspect, but they're not in the race we're talking about!
Flo jo is proven. She took the most dangerous.
through 1986, really....
a classic duel! 2 of the greatest women athletes of all time , i only rank blankers-koen ahead!
Don't forget the great Betty Cuthbert.
1977----49.51 ohne doping !!!!!!!!Fantastisch!!!!
Ewa Kłobukowska wielka nieobecna
シェビンスカｖsコッホ・ ドーピング対決
Ewa Klobukowska - was faster! & Very Polish. Communists of Soviet Union & germany destroyed her.
イリ－ナ・シェビンスカ(ポーランド)選手、東京五輪(1964)から15年以上も世界の一線で活躍した。動画当時もドーピング疑惑の東独選手に勝利するのだから、たいしたものだ。
Quelle course !!! Peut-être Maritai Koch gère mal le dernier virage. Elle aurait du rester dans la foulée d' Irina Swezinska et la coiffer dans la ligne droite. C'était l'orgueil de ces deux athlètes qui était le moteur des derniers mètres.
phantastic Irina very nice Marita

@Olivierr3 Well that because it never happened !
They were far from being machines. But they were top athletes that showed the world what systematic training with the best coaches can do. Their athletes dominated track and field, swimming, ice skating, and even bob sled. How come their bob sleds beat the rest of the world, because they were doped ? Come on !!!! That sport shows that they were great because they trained better than the rest.. Everyone was doped, only the ones who trained best, won.
MrFennyfanny Bob sled depend very much on speed,and there were several instances if sprinters who turned to that winter discipline hsving finished thee trach snd field career So it is quite possible they were still on drugs
Chwila radosci :)
Marita Koch on doping, old lady Irena casually.
Kochana Irena. Brawo.
Nie pomogly ani zupa z hormonow z Enerdowa ani miliony dolcow z Ameryki. Nakopala im , az milo.
Why controversial ??? Do you all think the others ( Szewinska, brisco, vladikina, perec, gohr, ashford, flo-jo,kratochvilova ...) even the unknown british, french, west-german athletes were not dopped ???? eastern bloc athletes
Nie chcę być źle zrozumianym. Wspaniała sportsmenka. Ale żal mi dziś naszą Juzwik jak na średnich dystansach musi się mierzyć z facetami . To nie przytyk do naszej mistrzyni, to były inne czasy i eksperymentowano z hormonami. Dziś proszę spojrzeć na twarze np. pilkarek nożnych, tenisistek,biegaczek,dzudoczek itp. w sportach siłowych i wytrzymałościowych. To nie homofobia, daleko mi do tego, ale to po prostu niesprawiedliwe i co gorsza, niech ktoś podpowie jak to rozwiązać.
Lzy ..... Kochana !!!!! to co kobieto zrobilas dla polskiej atletyki .... pamietam koniec lat 60 bylismy z tata u sasiada jeden posiadal telewizor !!!!! wowczas uslyszalem Irena Kirsztensztain pozniej Szewinska !!! mam teraz 59 lat tego biegu nigdy nie zapomne !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marita Koch was the best 400m runner of all time. She was a natural 400m runner but unfortunately she used drugs. She will always be my favourite athlete
please don't be naif
Damn that lady got some strong manly features. She could be mistaken with a dude if she cut her hair. To be honest i don't trust any record that came pre 90's from USSR and Europe.
You shouldnt 'trust' from that period fullstop. If anybody thinks those US sprint times (female particularly) were clean they are mad. USATF ignored doping by their athletes, the Eastern European nations encouraged it. End result is still the same. The record books need to be wiped clean, started from the year out of competition testing was brought in. coincidentally the same year Flo-Jo shocked the world with her sudden retirement.
