In a brief yet dramatic encounter at the Paris Olympics, Italy's Angela Carini withdrew from her bout against Algeria's Imane Khelif after just 46 seconds. Khelif, who was previously banned from the 2023 World Championships for failing a gender eligibility test, dominated the match, leading Carini to end the fight prematurely.
Khelif's dominant performance rekindled debates on whether she and Chinese Taipei's Lin Yu-ting should compete in the Olympics. Both were disqualified from the 2023 World Championships under International Boxing Association rules prohibiting athletes with XY chromosomes in women's events. The International Olympic Committee , however, has taken a more lenient approach, allowing them to compete in Paris, stating, "They are women in their passports.
Khelif, who avoided reporters post-fight, received strong support from Algeria's Olympic committee, which condemned foreign media for targeting her. "Such attacks on her personality and dignity are deeply unfair, especially as she prepares for the pinnacle of her career at the Olympics," their statement read.
