Imane Khelif was born a woman in Algeria , has lived as a woman and knows nothing about herself other than being a woman.

The IOC ’s management of the Paris Olympics boxing tournament has proven to be a failure.

Hungary 's high-level official in Viktor Orban's far-right government said he didn’t believe any of this was legitimate.

The pressure is on the IOC to do something about boxing going forward.

The IBA offered the same $ 50,000 prize money for an Olympic gold medal winner to the Italian fighter being elevated to heroine status among the far-right, anti-trans warriors in the U.S. The IOC ’s inability to anticipate all this leaves them with two choices: Find someone who can manage this tournament in 2028 or rid the Olympics of boxing.

Fairness doesn’t exist in sports never has, never will.
