The competitor didn’t lose a single round in the women’s welterweight (66 kg) division in spite of criticism from the audience.
She became the first Algerian woman to win the boxing gold when she beat China’s Yang Liu in the final on August 10.
“Whether I qualify or not, or whether I’m a woman or not, I have made many statements in the media,” she said in response to her detractors after her astounding triumph, according to News.com.au.
“I am completely eligible to compete in this event. Like all other women, I am a woman. “I lived as a woman, I competed as a woman, and I was born a woman,” she went on. “There is no question about it.
Success has enemies, as I like to refer to them. These assaults also provide a unique test for my success.” The gold medallist’s family hasn’t stopped standing up for her.
