Imane Khelif vs Anna Luca Hamori Boxing at Paris Olympics 2024 | Imane Khelif Crying after Match

Imane Khelif BEATS WOMAN again during the women’s boxing at the Paris Olympics. The Algerian boxer, who has biological male XY chromosomes, pummeled Hungarian Anna Luca Hamori during a boxing match today.

You speak as if you know how a real woman looks like 😂😂😂

[davidholm]

I mean... That russian boxing association CLAIMS that she is biologically male, but they haven't shown any test results, or even said what kind of test it was.

[stomeka]

This boxing match should not have been allowed to happen. Whoever has the male chromosome also has an unfair advantage due to his much stronger physique and punching power. This is an unacceptable advantage. If the doping laws are strict to prevent someone from gaining an unfair advantage over others, then such cases should be regulated just as strictly as it gives the athlete an unfair advantage.

[etrom.forever]

Weakest man in Algeria will win the gold medal!

[Biaggio]

It was the fight of a COWARDLY male BRAVE GIRL. Gratuita for Luca's perseverance❤️🙏

[richikiss]

With this power, Tyson can dress up as a lady and knock everyone out of the ring! It's AMAZING that the organizers allowed this, it's not about sports anymore!!!!

[asturiasceltic]

This is the most ridiculous Olympics that I have ever seen 50 years on this earth. I almost want to laugh that we have gotten to this point.

[AissaLahouariyounes]

Maybe buy a deodorant with this YouTube money

As compared to people born with XX chromosomes, XY individuals organs do not respond the same to circulating testosterone levels. Among the known advantages are: higher lean to adipose mass ratio, increased pulmonary capacity, higher vo2 max, more red blood cells allowing a richer supply of oxygen to the muscles, more imposing stature, longer wingspan, larger heart, masculine bone structure, stronger and larger neck (instrumental for absorbing hits to the head), larger skeletal muscles, larger hands, and so on.

[sssstavrman]

I don't get it.
Isn't the definition of the male gender having the XY chromosome?

[IchAllah]

It's not okay for a man to box against a woman at the Olympics.

[frxk]

If someone is born with XY, but has female genitalia, then he/she/it/they are a male with female genitalia (also called phenotypical female).

It doesn't matter how one is raised her entire life. Now I don't know the chromosome of Imame Khalif so I won't make claims regarding that

[onedinjames]

This Imane is so pretty. I wish the good luck to all Algerians to have such nice women. By the way, where is "her" hijab? :)

[Lilia__]

She is not a male pretending to be a female, she is not even a trans gender athlete. In Algeria, her home country, trans and gay people are illegal by the strict Muslim laws. Imane Khelif was assigned female at birth and it says so on her passport She fought in the last Olympics in Tokyo without any controversy. She won her opening bout but lost her second to eventual gold medallist Kellie Harrington of Ireland. Khelif reached the final of the 2023 world championships before she was abruptly disqualified by the IBA, which cited high levels of testosterone in her system High testosterone levels in women is rare but not unknown. South Africa's double lympic 800m track champion Caster Semenya, who has naturally occurring higher testosterone levels associated with DSD, has also caused some debate.

[xSMOKExEMxALLx]

If I was born with flippers & was beating everyone at swimming, then I would have an unfair advantage over all other swimmers! 🤷‍♂

[beatahandler]

Conchita Wurst is getting a gold for Algeria. Next stop is the Eurovision 😂😂😂

[jackfrost]

Why don't you just give HIM the gold medal already and end this charade

[evil_radfem]

Imane Khelif, a man, boxed against Angela Carini during the Olympics. Some people are upset, others are defending this, some are saying the criticism directed at Khelif is just a plot to get Algeria disqualified.

Khelif had been disqualified from professional boxing in the female category before because the IBA did two sex tests on him and the IBA claims that the results show that he is a man cheating by pretending to be a woman. Same as another controversial boxing contestant for the female category, Lin Yu-ting.

Neither of them contested their disqualification in the end which makes it even more suspicious.

The IOC discontinued all sex testing years ago, their only eligibility criteria are now whether someone has the marker for female on their passport. This is why both of the boxers were still able to participate in the Olympics.

Khelif won against his opponent after just 46 seconds. Carini took a punch to the face (there are claims he broke her nose) and forfeited the match, saying she had never been hit this hard before.

Carini was seen visibly angry and in tears, on her knees, repeatedly saying “it’s not fair”. Just like Lin Yu-ting’s opponent, she refused to shake hands. Khelif nonetheless approached her twice, smirking, and even groped her breast after winning.

A lot of people were understandably upset. The IOC issued a statement claiming that the true victims of the situation were the two male boxers.

Now, are they male? Yes.

The IBA defines “woman” as someone with XX-chromosomes, so this leads us to the conclusion that both Lin and Khelif at the very least tested positive for Xy. The test results are available to individual journalists.

Alleged childhood pictures of Khelif surfaced, showing him in pink clothes leading us to believe he was raised as a girl.

His father also presented to the public Khelif’s birth certificate that classifies him as “female”, however, strangely, the birth certificate was only issued in 2018, 19 years after his birth and right at the start of Khelif’s professional boxing career.

Both Imane’s and Lin’s passport is saying they are “female.” Many people have pointed out that a marker on a passport is not indicative of sex in the first place, since many countries have self-identification laws that allow women and men to change their legal sex marker at will. Algeria however is not one of those countries.

Now, there are few disorders of sexual development that can lead to women having Xy chromosomes.

One of them is Swyer syndrome, which I’ve seen people claim Khelif has. First, there’s no proof for this. Second, there are documentaries about women with Swyer syndrome and Khelif looks nothing like them. I think it’s pretty apparent from his appearance that Khelif has functioning testicles. He has a male frame, Adams apple, male muscle-to-fat ratio, a male voice and wingspan. There are even pictures of his that show what is clearly male genitalia. Women with Swyer do not develop male genitalia and only produce female levels of testosterone.

More claims debunked:
“She is a woman on testosterone”
Khelif is not a woman on testosterone. If that were true, “she” would have to be disqualified for doping. But apart from the fact he has Xy, women who take androgens, even the ones taking a male amount of them, still have female frames. This is me speaking from experience: just look at videos, best unedited, of women on high amounts of testosterone moving. You’ll see they look and move nothing like him, even if they have more muscle and beards.

“She has a uterus and fallopian tubes”
False and entirely based on the fabricated claim that Khelif has Swyer syndrome.

“Khelif has lost to women before, so she must be a woman”
Even cheaters lose sometimes. And even a loser man has no place in women's boxing.

Of course, it is possible that Khelif has lost several times on purpose.

William “Lia” Thomas, who swam with the women as a man in the USA, was caught several times deliberately not paddling his legs to make the difference between himself and the women look smaller.

Here is a quote from Mexican Brianda Tamara, against whom Khelif boxed in 2022:

“When I fought with her, I felt very out of my depth; her blows hurt me a lot. I don’t think I had ever felt like that in my 13 years as a boxer, nor in my sparring with men. Thank God that day I got out of the ring safely, and it’s good that they finally realized [that he is a man].

“She was born female”
Fact is, we know he was registered as female at birth. We don’t know why that is, but reasons could be: botched circumcision, born with ambiguous genitalia, parents wanted a girl (unlikely since transgenderism is illegal in Algeria). Personally, I think the second reason is true.

Caster Semenya is another man who competed as female, but later fathered a child with sperm from his internal testicles. Semenya has what’s called 5α-Reductase 2 deficiency. That means Semenya is a normal man whose testes just didn’t drop. In some cases, they drop later.

More things that don’t add up but aren’t proof of anything on their own:
Khelif, coming from a rural Muslim community, was never seen wearing a hijab.

There exist several pictures of him wearing a groin protector specifically for men, never for women. Right after his fight against Carini he was seen doing something on stage that many men seem to recognize as “adjusting his junk.”

Conclusion: to clear things up and avoid spreading misinformation, we should put pressure on the IOC and the athletes to undergo sex testing in a way that ensures we are getting correct unbiased results.

And yes, the media and many disingenuous people online are lying about about this situation and the athletes’ sexes.

UPDATE: Due to his victory against Anna Luca Hamori, Khelif secures a bronze medal and moves on to the semi-finals. Hamori posted an AI-generated picture before the fight showing her confronting a giant monster man. The fact that she has a lighter color in the picture, while Khelif is shown with darker skin, adds fuel to the fire of a discussion about racism that has flared up on Twitter/X.

After the fight against Lin Yu-ting that secured him bronze, Staneva, his opponent, made a double X sign with her hands.
“I only want to play with women, I am double X.”

The fact that the 2 male contenders fighting in women boxing made it to the finals pretty much proves what everyone is saying. Having a Y chromosome is an unfair advantage.

[bcrater]

XY does not equal XX. Math and science agree.
