and who have competed for many years as a woman,” said he. To put it simply, this is a lady. Their gender was always quite clear.
The 46-second victory against Angela Carini of Italy put the Algerian boxer in the middle of a media frenzy that lasted the whole Olympics.
According to reports, the Italian fighter cried out to her coach, “It’s not right, it’s not right,” and then collapsed to her knees, unable to continue.
Carini later said that she withdrew from the competition due to “a strong pain in the nose” and then declined to shake Khelif’s hand upon the announcement of the winner.
Famous people including J.K. Rowling, Elon Musk, and Logan Paul have spoken out against Khelif’s presence
in the women’s boxing championship and have propagated false information about her ability to participate since the fight on August 1.
Omar Khelif, the boxer’s father, spoke up about the controversy during an appearance with Sky News, presenting the network with his daughter’s birth certificate to confirm her gender.
“I am expecting a daughter. Her upbringing was that of a girl. That chick is fierce. She was brought up to be courageous and diligent.
She is quite motivated to work and exercise, he said. “The Italian opponent she faced was unable to defeat my daughter because my daughter was stronger and she was softer.”
