Biologically male boxer from Taiwan, who is allowed to compete in the women’s division by the International Olympic Committee, will now have a chance to compete for the gold after he beat Turkish female boxer Esra Yildiz Kahraman.

After losing to Lin Yu-ting, Kahraman made the XX symbol with her fingers, signifying she has two X chromosomes. It was seemingly her protest for the Olympics allowing Yu-ting to compete in the women’s division when he has an XY chromosomes.

Here’s more from the New York Post:

Lin Yu-ting could be taking gold home from Paris after a gender controversy has consumed most of her Olympic experience.

The boxer from Taiwan will win at least a silver medal after defeating Esra Yildiz Kahraman of Turkey in one of the women’s 57-kilogram semifinal matches.

Despite an aggressive strategy from Yildiz Kahraman with several combinations to hopefully gain some advantage over the 5-foot-9 Yu-ting, it wasn’t enough.

Yu-ting went on to cruise to another dominant 5-0 victory for a shot at a gold medal.

Yildiz Kahraman, who will receive a bronze medal, repeated a previously used gesture to spoil the moment for the two-time Olympian.

Just as Svetlana Kamenova Staneva of Bulgaria did in the quarterfinal bout, Yildiz made two Xs with her index fingers, which seemingly referred to the symbols of female chromosomes, as Yu-Ting’s sex has been questioned throughout the games.

Yu-ting, along with Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who clinched a spot in the welterweight gold medal final, have been at the center of a gender identity clash throughout the Olympics.

Critics have questioned their gender after learning of the pair’s disqualification from the 2023 world championships for failing to pass gender eligibility tests and and were subsequently banned from the International Boxing Association (IBA).
