Olympics Officials Make It 'Absolutely Clear' On Women Boxers Controversy

#olympics officials responded on Thursday to the controversy surrounding two female #boxer who were disqualified from 2023's world championships after failing "gender eligibility" tests but were cleared to compete in Paris. "This is not a transgender issue," IOC spokesperson Mark Adams told reporters and said that their passport clearly identified them as women.

First she quit after 46 SECONDS!!! I don't blame her one bit!

[Dan-Curt]

This whole thing is getting disgusting

[caseywrable]

If this is not a transgender issue then what is the purpose of this press conference?

[quest]

We're talking about this 'because it is NOT A TRANSGENDER ISSUE' 🤯🤯🤯

That right there is all we need to know about the Wokest games there's ever been

[dsandmansandy]

How the hell do you fail a gender test

[truthof]

I have no idea what this dude is saying. You have biological men beating up on biological woman. So what else can it be about?

[jhtillmann]

Bring on the so called experts. This gaslighting is next level. That’s why we have weight classes.

[brandonbauder]

This guy's the only person who makes less sense than Kamala

[donnieb]

These people make me sick, what a freak show

[mesheraliuga]

Is that so called women has pole?? Or a whole??

[Averageperson]

The IOC needs to stop putting women's lives at risk by letting men bashing women.

[GirlBoss-xbol]

Having a dude from the IOC justify that it’s acceptable for another dude to punch out a woman in Olympic Women’s boxing was also disturbing.

[jvbbeast]

God will judge you, Mark Adams. If you believe it or not ! Repent or receive Gods judgement. You destroy sports with idiocy.

[cheerwhiner]

Let’s see… brain damage vs possible medal…🤔

That’s a tough call.
🙄🙄🙄
Absurd and Pathetic

[oliviaahrens]

Put him in a ring with a female boxer, please!!!!

[jaymoney]

Why don't you ask the fighters what they think?

[Mrpotato]

This is bull crap if they want to fight they should make a side for trans people this is not fair I normally don't get involved in this kind of stuff but come on man really?

[marks]

I just don’t understand how we are that generation. Olympics been for centuries but we managed to be the weirdest ones. People are even quitting on it now as if it ain’t worth winning anymore.

[kevinb]

This is the ambassador of the sickness

[rabbitualpanda]
