Logan Paul has admitted to spreading misinformation about Imane Khelif, a cisgender Algerian Olympic boxer. Paul initially accused Khelif of being a man and described her participation in women's boxing as the 'purest form of evil.' He has since deleted the tweet and acknowledged his mistake, stating that he made an 'oopsie.' Paul is now reply-limiting his followup tweets. This incident has sparked a heated debate on gender in sports. The International Boxing Association (IBA) has not released any test results, maintaining that such information is confidential.
