Italian boxer Angela Carini said she had “never been hit so hard in my life” after abandoning her fight against Algeria’s Imane Khelif inat the 2023 World Championships due to a failed gender eligibility test — Carini said she had “enough” after getting struck in the face.. “I didn’t give up, but a punch hurt too much and so I said enough. I go out with my head held high.
“I don’t know if her nose is broken. I have to speak with the girl. But many people in Italy tried to call and tell her: “Don’t go please: it’s a man, it’s dangerous for you,”In the days leading up to Thursday’s fight, International Olympic Committee spokesperson Mark Adams addressed Khelif and Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu‑ting, who was also disqualified from last year’s world championships.
“For me if you go in the ring you have already won, regardless of everything else. I’m not here to judge. It’s not up to be to say if it’s fair or not fair. I just did my job. I managed to leave with my head held high. I’m a mature woman, when I feel I cannot continue, its not giving in, its having the dignity to say enough. I was convinced I would win, I was concentrated, serene.
