Algerian Boxer Imane Khelif Wins 66kg Olympic Bout in 46 Seconds Amid Controversy
Aug 1, 2024, 11:40 AM
Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who was previously disqualified from a women's boxing championship for failing a gender eligibility test, has sparked controversy by competing in the women's 66kg boxing event at the Paris Olympics. Khelif, who has XY chromosomes, defeated Italy's Angela Carini in just 46 seconds, causing Carini to abandon the fight in tears after Khelif landed two punches that reportedly broke her nose. Carini stated, 'I have never been hit so hard in my life.' The International Olympic Committee (IOC) had cleared Khelif to compete despite her previous disqualification. Algeria's Olympic committee condemned the scrutiny and attacks on Khelif, calling them baseless. The incident has intensified the debate over gender eligibility in women's sports, with many criticizing the IOC's decision to allow Khelif to compete.
