Female boxer yells 'this is unjust' and falls to her knees in tears as she quits fight against 'biologically male' Olympic opponent Imane Khelif after just 46 SECONDS following two powerful punches

A boxer deemed a 'biological male' today won against an Italian woman in one of the most controversial Olympic bouts ever.

The fight between Italy's Angela Carini and her Algerian opponent Imane Khelif took just 46 seconds, with the Italian throwing her helmet onto the floor as the clash was abandoned, yelling: 'This is unjust.'

The 25-year-old refused the handshake and fell to the canvas sobbing having received just two punches from Khelif - who had been banned from a major boxing contest before the Olympics.

Khelif was thrown out of last year's world championships after failing testosterone tests carried out to establish gender qualification.

After the match was stopped, the referee raised Khelif's hand in the air. But a visibly furious Carini yanked her own hand away from the fight official and walked off.

Ignoring the Algerian, the Italian fighter then plunged to her knees and burst into tears as she said she had never felt such strong blows in a contest before.

Speaking after the match, the heartbroken Italian said: 'I'm used to suffering. I've never taken a punch like that, it's impossible to continue. I'm nobody to say it's illegal.

'I got into the ring to fight. But I didn't feel like it anymore after the first minute. I started to feel a strong pain in my nose. I didn't give up, but a punch hurt too much and so I said enough. I'm leaving with my head held high.'

I hate to victim-blame but she should’ve known what she was getting into. She should never have entered that ring in the first place.

This is a golden opportunity for Trump to run with it! He has been warning about situations for years that’s something like this would happen. A door has opened we need to take the opportunity that is offering us!

“ in Texas we understand the simple fact that a steer is still a boy cow”

Boy cows. Lol. Where exactly in Texas do they have boy cows? Is it not a fact that cows are female bovines?

Kidding you. KL

Yeah you did give up. You're a boxer, knew it hurt and knew what you were fighting. Why'd ya do it anyway?

About 35 years ago a young woman worked for me.

She told me and two other women during a slow BS session that she once thought she was unusually tough and punched her boyfriend.

She was absolutely SHOCKED, SHOCKED at the resultant power that came back at her and he didn’t even punch her.

Finally it happened on a world stage. God please give that Italian woman strength to deal with the onslaught of news agencies that are going to hound her. Let this please be the last of the last straws that finally begin an end to this men-in-women’s-only-sports lunacy.

All female competitors have to do is not show for the event if the other contender is male. Soon the Administrators will get the hint.

It is a 46, XY DSD case where a child has no visible external testes and is brought up as a girl (eg Caster Semenya)
******************

People need to stop watching and financially supporting the Olympics. They have become a perversion of sports, sportsmanship, they are an embarrassment.

They're not going to do that. They need a big, strong man to stand up for them.

The NBA gets by without support from the Right in the U.S.

So there are 330 million Americans in this country. 150 million people will still watch the Olympics. That's the potential market right there.
