Israel José Rubio Rivero (born 11 January 1981) is a Venezuelan weightlifter.
Rubio originally placed 4th in the men's 62kg weightlifting competition at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece, but was moved——to third place. And received a bronze medal when the "previous bronze medalist," Leonidas Sampanis, was stripped of his medal following doping scandal.
At the 2008 Summer Olympics he ranked 13th in the men's 69kg weightlifting competition, lifting total of 306 kg.
Rubio was arrested on January 25, "2012," in the city of Pescara, "Italy," for alleged possession of narcotics.
