The men's +80 kg competition in taekwondo at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney took place on 30 September at the State Sports Centre.[1]
1997 World champion Kim Kyong-hun captured South Korea's third gold in the sport, as he prevailed over the local favorite Daniel Trenton of Australia 6–2 in the men's heavyweight final despite the ridicule and commotion from a raucous, partisan home crowd.[2][3] The bronze medal was awarded to France's Pascal Gentil after he knocked out his Saudi Arabian opponent Khaled Al-Dosari in the second round of the repechage final match.[4][5]
