Former Olympic swimmer Sharron Davies has called for Imane Khelif to be stripped of Olympic medals following the leak of a medical report declaring the boxer biologically male.

The former swimmer claimed Khelif's "whole team, their coaching team knew, and nobody cared" about potential damage inflicted on female competitors.

A medical report from Khelif's 2023 World Championships has been published for the first time, with the document appearing to indicate that the boxer is "biologically male."

The report was released just 36 hours after World Boxing ruled that Khelif would need to undergo sex screening for future female category appearances.

Sharron Davies called for the medals to be stripped

Speaking to GB News, Davies said: "So we had two gold medals that were won by male individuals who have a male DSD, a difference of sexual development that only affects males.

"We have this particular problem quite a lot. I mean, it's what Caster Semenya has.

"Caster Semenya is biologically male, has known that for an extremely long time because all of these individuals would have had male levels of testosterone and gone through male puberty.

"So, when people say, "Do I have sympathy?" No, I don't, because Khelif knew that they were biologically male.

"They knew they were cheating. They knew they had an unfair advantage.

"Their whole team, their coaching team knew, and nobody cared. They didn't care what damage they might have inflicted on a female.

"So I have absolutely no sympathy. Yes, I'd love to see those medals stripped."

World Boxing has implemented mandatory genetic testing for all athletes over 18 in its competitions, making any potential comeback by Khelif far more complicated.

The governing body, provisionally approved to run Olympic boxing in Los Angeles, has announced that athletes must undergo a polymerase chain reaction genetic test to determine their sex.

The test detects chromosomal material through a mouth swab, saliva or blood. Khelif, who was allowed to box in Paris because of female passport status, has failed to provide any evidence of having female chromosomes in the nine months since the scandal erupted.

World Boxing has ruled that Khelif is ineligible to enter future events as a woman without first submitting to the same chromosome testing that already triggered the boxer's disqualification at global level.

The 26-year-old has remained defiant, vowing to win a second successive Olympic gold medal in Los Angeles in 2028.

World Boxing's tougher stance on the issue comes in response to widespread outrage at the scenes in Paris, where both Khelif and Taiwan's Lin Yu-ting swept to Olympic titles despite having been banned by the IBA the previous year on the grounds that they did not have XX chromosomes.

Italy's Angela Carini, the first opponent beaten by Khelif, described how she had been punched so hard that she feared for her life.
