Outrage after biological male boxer breaks Angela Carini’s nose at Olympics

Outrage after biological male boxer breaks Angela Carini’s nose at Olympics #parisolympics2024 #IStandWithAngelaCarini #ImaneKhelif

Italian boxer Angela Carini broke down in tears after abandoning her bout against Algerian opponent Imane Khelif just 46 seconds into the fight, igniting significant controversy at the Olympics.

The 25-year-old welterweight’s headgear became dislodged twice within the brief encounter with Khelif, who was controversially allowed to compete despite being disqualified from the women’s world championships last year for failing testosterone and gender eligibility tests.

At the North Paris Arena, Carini explained her decision to withdraw was due to the impact of the blows she received. "I am heartbroken," Carini confessed. "I stepped into the ring to honour my father. I’ve always been called a warrior, but I had to prioritise my health. I’ve never been hit this hard before."

So, domestic violence became Olympic. How did that happen?

[justicewarrior]

Respectful for what ?? A dude boxing a woman wakes up .. this is sick .

[gb-nqtl]

absolute disgrace, just like the opening ceremony

[mrsteve.keepfit]

I feel so sorry for the woman boxer. This is so wrong on all levels.

[cristianmazzoletti]

I propose to have Tyson dress as a woman and make him fight with the Trans then let's see how it ends. Shame on you, you destroyed the dreams of an athlete who has been preparing for years. A hug to Angela, you won!

[truthinspiresme]

I feel so sorry for her. Absolutely apalling!

[tristramcoffin]

Domestic violence has become an Olympic sport and yet YouTube is concerned my comment remains respectful

[chulascruz]

I have always loved to watch the Olympics but not this time. First Jesus’s last supper with His disciples is mocked and now this disgusting fight. I’m not watching. I have lost all desire to watch future Olympics too.

[Catch]

Should we be surprised anymore with the complete madness and stupidity surrounding the woke debacle!

[alfredanderson]

This is outrageous!! I would like to see the Olympic committee get in the ring with HIM!!

[_ruraljuror_]

The look on his face is disturbing. He is clearly happy with himself. Shame on the Olympics, this is an embarrassment.

[DonnaAbrams-qhzt]

A swimmer who transitioned after puberty was barred from swimming against women in Olympics, but a boxer who has TWICE tested as male was allowed to box a woman? What’s wrong with the IOC?

[benben]

Training for many years at the end she will fine her self against men

[stephanlaw]

Shame on you olympic committee this world is so fucked up.

[hvmztrh]

He should be in jail for assault and battery charges.

[jkiclhq]

Disgusting! This man must be stopped from destroying female boxer s dreams! They can create a trans category next time, this is unfair, criminal

[GethinJames]

These women need to STOP competing against these men.

[joshuamoore]

She didn't forfeit. She rejected injustice.

[Alfred-Bobby]

Imagine working hard for years and getting out just because her opponent identity him as a woman

[frankwilson]

We need to cancel, stop the the weird Olympics no more interest in
watching them.
