Algerian Athlete Branded "Man" After 46-second-bout in Women's Boxing | Vantage with Palki Sharma

An Algerian boxer has been branded a "man" after her opponent surrendered in 46 seconds during a Round of 16 match at the Paris Olympics. The accusations stem from her disqualification at last year's World Boxing Championship over a failed gender test. Despite the outrage, the organisers have stood by the athlete. Palki Sharma brings you the facts.

Important update regarding information. As a proud Indian🇮🇳 from India, we love ♥ and have a lot of respect for the incredible work of Palki Sharma super interesting video *How British looted 45 trillion from India* which is as a masterpiece of the highest quality. Its content is truly inspiring and I thoroughly enjoy watching it. The dedication, talent and hard work poured into the video are greatly appreciated by many. The Indian Union Public Service Commission has also deliver a remarkable report titled संघ लोक सेवा आयोग *How Britishers killed 1.8 billion Indians. Chronology of British Raj's exploitative policies* | UPSC, " is equally astounding. The Indian government consistently produce insightful and thought-provoking articles of the utmost caliber. I sincerely hope they continue to produce such captivating exceptional work. Can it even get better than that? They deserve an award for best report of the year. Thank you for telling the truth and all the best

Women with XY chromosome can’t have children. They do have same reproductive system but the uterus isn’t capable of bearing children nor do they go through menstruation. They go through male puberty and hence it was unfair

[msRBPoo]

I think you answered it well Firstpost - it's pretty simple; XX or XY tests - discussion over.

[rmrf]

If she is a biological woman, but has a strength of man, then that's not a problem as long as gender is the same between competing people. Some people are born with extraordinary advantage to other people, you can't do anything about it, those people who wants to compete but lacks this gift, then sucks for you, you have reached your limit then.

They allow this and punish people for doping?!!!!

[Saxman]

They are afraid to lose their jobs if they speak the truth.

This is not the first time this happens, Caster Semenya was humiliated at the 2016 Olympics.

[Maidenize]

Make him fight a guy of same weight category... utterly shameless.!!

[Bollox]

What a joke!!!! This world we live in is becoming a huge Joke! Armageddon is nigh!!

[Pinkmomo_]

Basically zero transparency.
If this person does have XY chromosome, the IOC is lying to us.
And if they are not XY, then IBA has mislabeled a woman and witheld her from sports.

[vishnureddy]

if a man hit a woman outside of the Olympics, man will go to jail, if a man hit a woman in Olympics, Man will get gold medal..

[dividerinchief]

If doping and anabolic steroids are banned then why this testosterone is allowed?

[treasureawingura]

XX and XY can never be equal..
sorry to the biological woman...

[TeresaCookSweetleaf]

REALLY!!! XX and XY are not the same!!! She/He is much stronger! Not a full woman, But a mix between Man and Woman. Worst Olympic Games EVER!

[matthewleaman]

France has messed up, this Paris Olympics has been a disgrace

[austin-]

The worst Olympics in modern history medal goes to Paris France..👏

[judahl]

I've been saying this for years, it is legal domestic violence.

[aniketGupta-sgyn]

But why to hate the person?
Where she or he can showcase talent. They should defeat her first

[carlorossi]

the Italian female athlete risked her life in the name of an ideology women are discriminated against! pure madness

[bjpraveenraja]

Should such woman be allowed in that particular sport absolutely no
