Paris Olympics 2024 | Second Boxer Embroiled In Gender Controversy Wins Olympic Match | N18G

The second of the two female boxers whose gender identities have recently been scrutinized won her first fight at the Paris Olympics on Friday.

Lin Yu-ting of Taiwan defeated Sitora Turdibekova of Uzbekistan in the 57 kg round-of-16 match by unanimous decision and advanced to the quarterfinals. Her victory follows Thursday’s win by Algeria’s Imane Khelif, whose gender identity has also come into question in recent days, prompting a social media firestorm.

Sitora we are proud of you Uzbekistan 🇺🇿🇺🇿🇺🇿🇺🇿

[Alias-eiko]

Soooo the olympic women's boxing final is going to be two dudes against each other?
only in el clowno worldo.

[ErgashboyevKozimjon]

This is just a shame! My fellow sister, keep your head held high. You are a winner for us.

[michaelp]

This is not a win for Taiwan. It is a disgusting violation of human dignity.

[Andrey-mlof]

The real shame is on IOC who let this happen. They should be criminally liable if anything bad happens. This is beyond ridiculous.

Обычно за избиение женщины дают тюремный срок. А на Олимпиаде - медали. Для нас спортсменка Узбекистана - победитель!

[QueensWino]

Anyone notice how with this fight and the one with the Algerian there are only still images, no video footage of the bouts in question? The powers that be are ashamed to show the live action, pure and simple.

[Yperkeimenos]

I'd suggest that all Olympic boxing teams withdraw, from the games, in protest to this farce.

[Dr_Mars]

Это просто издевательство мужик против женщина 😂

[azizkadirov]

Insult to the women working hard in sports, Uzbekistan stands on it's feet she is our champion 🏆 and has proven it fighting with this animal for 16 rounds

Two male boxers in the final for gold & silver in women's boxing! Is that the goal? Wow

[hollyfern]

Why are you calling a man "her?" Are you blind?

[stepsaferu]

Есть простой гендерный тест - случайный удар ниже пояса.

[ИванИван-ис]

Это уже полный факт деградации. Разве это Олимпиада? Позволили избить девушку. Что вообще происходит? О чем думают организаторы? Позорище?

[MadinabonuAkramova-bo]

This not olympic game 😡🤬🤬🤬.This is just a shame 😡😡😡😡🤬

[arthurharrison]

Good for the lady that went the distance with this man. He should be ashamed of his failure

[fionafornarina]

How can the Taiwanese and the Algerian be so shameless to beat up weaker women using their Y-advantage??? It is not only, that females are weaker, they have also more fragile bones and thinner skin, so the risk of being seriously hurt by technically male strokes, which are 160% stronger than those of women - is dramatically increased! This is so out of care for the sportswomen who came to Paris in the hope of fair matches. All the fights of Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting should be cancelled and those two sportswomen should go home without further delay. And Sitora Turdibekova and Angela Carini should have the chance to repeat their fights with equal combat partners - For fair Olympic games.

[dimpleseve]

This so disgusting that I will never watch the Olympics again!!!!

[jockmcluskie]

Domestic violence as an Olympic wow, what next? They could have infant tossing. They could even have different weight divisions depending on the size of the baby. The entire Olympic committee should be charged and prosecuted. All female boxers competing should take a class action against the committee and sue.
