Bottom Line
The only purported evidence for the claim that Khelif is trans comes from an undisclosed test performed by an allegedly corrupt sports governing body that may have shown she has a DSD condition. The IOC has said Khelif meets its requirements for participation, with Adams, the IOC spokesman, specifically clarifying, “This is not a transgender issue.”
Because Khelif is not transgender, claims attempting to make her victory against Carini an issue about transgender rights or “woke” politics are without basis.
So you had no thought about iba not releasing the full tests to protect the athlete?
You are jumping to conclusion that it’s all a big conspiracy against this athlete. That sounds unlikely to me.
Also, you accuse me of using this situation as some kind of rallying cry and I will assume everyone that is not 100% in line with what you think. I was banned from another community just by saying that there is an issue in woman sports by individuals with certain conditions and that it should be addressed. Who is in total mob mode here? Not even a mention of discussion is allowed.
Are you aware of the circumstances around the decision, the IBA being banned for having a long history of shadiness, and only failing this woman as soon as she beat a Russian? I suppose the IOC could all be conspiracy theorists too…
It’s a poor argument to count on “shadiness” of any boxing organization.
yeah IOC just banned them permanently for no reason, huh? literally the only governing body in olympic history to have been banned. No, that’s not concerning at all.
All because of one Algerian boxers one fight, right?
no, they have a long history of corruption, ties to organized crime, and fight fixing. we are going in circles here. next time why don’t you try looking up easily available information before JAQing of.
Yes, all boxing organizations have. We have established that already.
so what you’re saying is IBA can’t be trusted, glad we finally agree.
Cute. Yes they can’t be. But I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t exert themselves because of one fighter. It doesn’t work that way.
Yet again, like I said before, a conspiracy theory is never a good argument.
