Olympics spokesman says Algerian boxers are eligible
The Worldwide Olympic Committee’s chief spokesman has condemned misinformation casting doubt on the gender of Algerian feminine boxer Imane Khelif.
-
The Algerian boxer was born feminine, registered as a feminine, lived as a feminine, boxed as a feminine and had a feminine passport. This isn’t a transgender case. I do know that is not what you mentioned, however individuals are slightly confused that someway this can be a man preventing a lady. However the truth is, it is not. This can be a girl who has had a really, very lengthy struggle with numerous opponents within the ladies’s sport, the truth is, two fights with Italian boxers in the previous few years, I believe. So, I believe in case you begin addressing all doubts, then we’ll find yourself shifting in direction of a gender testing regime, which isn’t going to be good for anybody.
