Algerian boxer Imane Khelif wins gold at Olympics overshadowed by gender row • FRANCE 24 English

Algerian boxer Imane Khelif won a gold medal Friday at the Paris Olympics, emerging a champion from a tumultuous run at the Games where she endured intense scrutiny in the ring and online abuse from around the world over misconceptions about her gender. Khelif beat Yang Liu of China in the final of the women’s welterweight division, wrapping up the best series of fights of her career with a victory at Roland Garros, where crowds chanted her name, waved Algerian flags and roared every time she landed a punch.

The level of gaslighting on this story is mindblowing.

2 men fighting for gold in women boxing

Olympic in Paris been probably the worst Olympic

this shows that men are better boxers no matter the gender of the opponent.

China’s Yang Liu won the women’s boxing! She deserves the gold medal 🥇

[davidpelzer]

XY it's a guy. Women shouldn't be boxing. XY it's a dude. The REAL Women who won the silver and bronze are the true winners.

[D_Avila]

She legitimately won the gold medal……in domestic violence!

[augustinrocha]

I'd like to see HIM in the MENS division...at the same weight. All he did was beat up on women legally!!

[shanelawson]

This boxer is rejected by World Boxing authorities... But elects to, & is ALLOWED to, compete here. CRAZY❗⁉️

[markmanning]

Strategically checking all of the boxes while social engineering hate.

[takashiuchikawa]

The committee is being unfair to the athletes and not prioritizing safety.

Imane Khalif: "I AM A WOMAN!"
Any man who must say "I am a woman" is no true woman at all.

[angelahettich]

This man has no shame! The world has become a hellish place full of destructive, selfish and intellectually dishonest people.

[Capeau]

Expect more of this in the next olympics now that they have opened the door to this madness.

[n.h.]

real women shouldn't have to be peanialized!!!!

[merrysummer]

XY Playing without cheats is wasting time. IOC allows cheats

[yunleung]

This whole controversy just shows me that the whole problem can’t be trusted.

[shaderogue]

Showing chroms and testosterone levels should be the testing rule not just testosterone, if you have xy you are a guy

[Chuck]

Is there a way to check the chromosomes, I still believe it’s unfair that this person and the Taiwanese boxer are making it unfair for the biological women
