Cheek swab time
Imane Khelif, the boxer at the heart of the gender controversy at the Olympics, has been barred from making a competitive comeback next week.
World Boxing have confirmed that they will introduce mandatory sex testing and that they have written to the Algerian Boxing Federation to inform them that Khelif will not be able to compete at the Eindhoven Box Cup.
The amateur boxing federation said that Khelif would have to undergo sex testing before she could compete at any of their events.
HE. Don’t call him “she” in the very act of reporting on his cheating ffs.
In a statement, the governing body, which has taken on running amateur boxing and did not run it at the Paris Olympics, said: “World Boxing will introduce mandatory sex testing, to determine the eligibility of male and female athletes that want to take part in its competitions.
“The introduction of mandatory testing will be part of a new policy on “Sex, Age and Weight” to ensure the safety of all participants and deliver a competitive level playing field for men and women.
Especially women. It’s women who are cheated by gender nonsense.
I wonder if there were more than a few women boxers who were going to drop out of the competition if Khelif was allowed to compete without there being a test for sex done.
Some headlines are blaring that Khelif has been “banned” from competition, which isn’t the case. Khelif is now required to be tested for sex which isn’t a personal ban, but is a rule that all competitors are subject to.
Certainly banned from competing against women, but not against men, if he makes the cut. Maybe this is tacit admission that they know he won’t pass the test?
