Imane Khelif’s next opponent Anna Luca Hamori ‘not scared’ amid Olympic boxing gender controversy
New York Post ^ | Aug. 1, 2024 | Ryan Glasspiegel

The Paris Olympics are engulfed in controversy after Algerian boxer Imane Khelif caused Italy’s Angela Carini to quit just 46 seconds into their preliminary match on Thursday, but Khelif’s next opponent is undaunted.

Anna Luca Hamori, the first Hungarian Olympic boxer, faces Khelif in the quarterfinals Saturday and expressed that she has no fear.

Khelif’s Olympics entry has become a hot story after she was disqualified at the 2023 world championships “after her elevated levels of testosterone failed to meet the eligibility criteria,” according to the International Olympics Committee (IOC) database.

“I’m not scared,” Hamori told reporters. “I don’t care about the press story and social media. If she or he is a man, it will be a bigger victory for me if I win.”

An IOC spokesperson previously said Khelif is eligible for the Olympics as her passport says that she is a woman.

The same standard applied to Taiwan’s Lin Yu-ting, who was also disqualified from the 2023 World Championship.

Not only that, she has she/her in her email signature. That alone should be sufficient.

Best comment I have seen yet (on X):

Why would you pay for tickets to watch an Algerian man beat up European women at the Olympics, when you can walk around Paris and see that for free?

If the Hungarian woman is indeed tough, the tranny will just up his game and smash the crap out of her.

Somebody is gonna get killed in the ring if they keep this sh!t up.

This is just SO WRONG.

We don't have all the physiological data, but I understand that his anchovies never developed, or never descended.

Follow the famous Dave Chappell punchline: "So I kicked her in the pu$$y!"

Oh well with that kind of documentation....carry on. Regardless womens boxing is an abomination which I would never watch. Most of the womens stuff at the Olympics I would if I ever rekindled my interest in the games but that is unlikely. It’s been more than a decade since I last watched anything.

That’s the only thing that will stop this perversion.

But I can sympathize with a real woman who chooses to fight. You’ve trained for 10 years. All your hopes and dreams come down to this moment. And you’re not getting any younger. Perhaps it’s worth a roll of the dice.

Let’s say an Olympic rule was slanted against black people. The whole world would be in uproar. But nobody cares much when a rule is slanted against real women. That’s the tragedy here.
