Two transgender pretenders are being allowed to box in the female competition even though they were banned last year from the International Boxing Association.
The IBA was banned from running the games in Paris and now the International Olympic Committee is the one making this horrendous decision.
Here’s more on the news via The Guardian:
The International Olympic Committee has confirmed that two boxers who were disqualified from the world championships last year for failing gender eligibility tests will be allowed to fight in Paris.
Imane Khelif of Algeria and Lin Yu‑ting of Chinese Taipei (Taiwan) both start their Olympic campaigns this week: Khelif will meet the Italian Angela Carini in the 66kg category, and Lin is expected to face an unnamed opponent in the 57kg category on Friday.
The IOC’s decision will be controversial, with the former world champion Barry McGuigan expressing his unease. In a post on X, he wrote: “It’s shocking that they were actually allowed to get this far, what is going on?”
The situation has arisen because the world championships last year was run under the auspices of the International Boxing Association, whose president, Umar Kremlev, told the Russian news agency, Tass, that DNA tests had “proved they had XY chromosomes and were thus excluded from the sports events”.
The IBA told the Guardian it had made the decision “following a comprehensive review and was intended to uphold the fairness and integrity of the competition”.
Since then, however, the IBA has been banned from running the Olympic boxing tournament in Paris because of long-running questions surrounding governance issues and a series of judging scandals. That means the boxing in Paris is now being run under the auspices of the IOC’s Paris 2024 Boxing Unit, which has more relaxed rules than the IBA.
Below is a video from 2022 of Imane Khelif boxing against women in Mexico. Watch how hard he swings…
It’s bad enough when males are allowed to compete against women in a non-combative sport. But boxing??? It’s nothing but sanctioned abused by the Olympic committee and every woman who is supposed to compete should boycott. It’s not worth severe injury, especially when you know you are going to lose.
