Algerian boxer Imane Khelif failed a sex test at last year’s world championships.

The IBA banned her from competing in a gold-medal bout in Delhi by the International Boxing Association , who said that the fighter had failed biochemical tests in two consecutive years .

This genetic test is the same one that Caster Semenya has taken to reveal her DNA contains XY chromosomes, but given the phsyical nature of this sport this debate harnesses an entirely new dimension.

Either way, the volume of discourse about this fight, and Khelif , makes the bout against Italy ’s Carini today a compelling one. Carini is an excellent boxer herself and boasts two gold World Championship medals as well as a 40 -14 record stay tuned for all the updates..
