Paris Olympics 2024

Why Angela Carini of Italy abandoned her Olympics fight against Imane Khelif due to a gender controversy: 'Never been smacked so hard.'

Angela Carini, an Italian boxer, pulled out of her match against Imane Khelif of Algeria on August 1 after 46 seconds after the opening bell, bringing controversy to the Paris Olympics for the first time. Because Khelif failed a gender test in 2023, there has been a lot of controversy on social media and among officials.

She pulled out of the competition. Angela Carini, an Italian boxer, not only broke down in tears after the fight but also declined to shake hands with her opponent. The 'gender check' controversy also surfaced at the Paris Games. Imane Khelif, an Algerian boxer, is involved in this case; he failed a gender test the previous year. Iman Khelif is transsexual, in actuality.

 

Imane Khelif of Algeria and Angela Carini of Italy during the Olympics in Paris. This 66 kg division match barely lasted a minute, but it undoubtedly generated conversation throughout the globe. Angela Carini left the battle. 

 

It was during the 2023 World Championships that Imane Khelif failed a gender test. After that, he was "sacked." There is currently a new scandal in the sports world as a result of Imane Khelif's participation in the Olympics in Paris.

 

The Italian boxer Angela Carini had not even been out of the battle for a minute when she faced off against Imane Khelif. Carini also had his headgear taken off twice during this period, at which point he made the decision to end the fight. Then, Angela Carini sobbed in the ring before leaving without shaking Khelif's hand.

 

Imane Khelif fights boxing as an amateur. "At last year's world championships, he was" "disqualified" "just before the gold medal match." Her testosterone levels were elevated, according to the test. Following Angela's withdrawal from her match against Imane Khelif at the Olympics, people are questioning why the "man" was matched up against the woman in the ring on social media.
