Let's goooooooo. What a day for the Aussies. Two more Golds in the pool, and Saya takes the Gold in BMX. What a story for Saya and her family Also, Ebden/Peers into the Men's Doubles final, taking out the Americans (which is always an extra little win).

what physical safety are you talking about? itβs boxing. no matter who you go up against in that ring, youβre risking your life. based on all the fights sheβs had so far, doesnβt seem like she poses any more risk than other fighters. as iβve said, her ko ratio doesnβt stand out. itβs actually in the middle of the top 10 fighters of her division. sheβs not one punching everyone. sheβs never done that before. that italian boxer was just poor technically and imane took advantage of her ass defense as any boxer would. when a punch lands as accurate and flush as it did, youβll get rocked. plain and simple. and you guys are talking about a single match. iβve brought up all her other matches and how 90% of them went the distance. how sheβs lost against two top 5 prospects and has 9 losses on her record. but everyone wants to focus on this one match. anyways weβre talking in circles now and are obviously headstrong with our opinions. lets see how these next fights go. No. I raised the problem BEFORE the match with Carini. I've always questioned Khelif 's right to compete with females, especially considering boxing federation stopped her. my bad, i didnβt see the earlier posts in the thread. i did see your one comment though: As predictable, Angela Carini retired after getting two punches from Imane Khelif, the athlete with high testosterone levels. She said she felt too much pain and decided she didn't want to risk serious injuries. Keep in mind Angela had 83 previous victories, so she's an expert boxer.so since itβs so predictable, letβs see if khelif keeps two punching opponents with that advantage of hers. cause iβm not sure why itβd be so predictable considering the fact that sheβs only ever gotten three first round stoppages in her 46 fights. two against boxers that were making their debut and one against a boxer that had a 0-1 record. whatβs predictable is getting countered when you have poor technique and throw a slow left hook while having your chin pointed directly to your opponents back hand. add carlini to that list of khelifs first round stoppages (a list of boxers who had a combined record of 0-1).

I gotta say the 2 best things that can happen in the Olympics at this point are for Djokovic to beat Alcaraz tomorrow - doubt it, sadly......and some chick knocks this dude the fuck out .....quite tiresome Olympics........ and if I was guessing WHY it would be tiresome I would have thought it'd be because of the US Women's basketball team

I just learned from CIO that their only source for determining sex and age of the athletes is their passport. Nothing can obstacle a man to show up with his sister's passport if she resembles him, for instance.

These so-called activists would call you a transphobe even when a man actually kills a woman in a boxing match.

I think Carini didn't want to fight Khelif at all. She showed up because it meant 50.000 euro that she wouldn't have received from Italian federation if she didn't start the match.

And now she's bullied into apologising.

Let's see if other girls will do the same. Show up to get the money and retire immediately. Because this time is just a couple of boxers, next time there could be more people wanting to compete in women's tournaments. Moreover, Khelif might have got extra testosterone recently (doping). Spanish team testified no girls wanted to boxe with her in a recent camp, only guys.

So much mind-numbingly stupid BS posted in this thread. Only on MAR (or r/conservative) would a thread about an Olympics devolve into pages of back-and-forth with people misgendering (mis-transing? is that a word?) a female athlete from one of the most conservative countries in the world.
"The Algerian boxer was born female, was registered female, lived her life as a female, boxed as a female, has a female passport. This is not a transgender case. There has been some confusion that somehow itβs a man fighting a woman. This is just not the case, scientifically.β
meanwhile, Simone Biles just won her 3rd gold in Paris

dazedLet's put it this way. Would you allow an adult compete with juniors in a swimming race? The adult might be faster than the kids or not, but that's not the point. (Actually my neighbors' youngest son at 13 would have beaten most adults, but he was Swiss champion in 4 different styles); still you wouldn't allow an adult to race with kids. In the same way, you wouldn't want someone who hasn't the same characteristics as the other athletes in the same competition.
