Imane Khelif, an Algerian boxer, is at the center of controversy at the Paris Olympics after her opponent, Angela Carini, abandoned their match just 46 seconds in, citing a strong pain in her nose after being hit. Khelif has faced scrutiny due to her past disqualification from the Women's World Championships for failing a gender eligibility test, which revealed elevated testosterone levels. Despite this, she was cleared to compete in the Olympics, stirring debate about her participation in women's boxing. Amy Broadhurst, a boxer who has previously defeated Khelif, defended her, stating that accusations of cheating are unfounded and related to Khelif's biological circumstances. Former UFC fighter Gray Maynard also weighed in, arguing that public attacks on Khelif are unfair given her medical situation. As Khelif prepares for her next bout against Anna Luca Hamori, the implications of this controversy continue to impact the sport's reputation.
