IBA is to award Angela Carini of Italy with Olympic champion prize money
International Boxing Association (IBA) will award Angela Carini, who abandoned the fight against Algeria’s Imane Khelif at Paris 2024 Games after 46 seconds of the first round, the IBA prize money as if she were an Olympic champion, President Umar Kremlev ...
THEY BOUGHT HER APOLOGY ... I wonder if she'll ever box again
You're confusing organizations. The IBA protects women and does not allow men in the ring with them. The IOC overrode and banned the IBA from doing what they had done, certifying qualified boxers for each Olympic event. The IOC and their tools allowed men in. The IBA supports champions with cash prizes. They are showing solidarity with the woman boxer.
Nonetheless, I believe the women should refuse to fight these men, and everyone of right mind should support them. Kudos for the IBA for putting their money where their mouths are.
I agree that women need to say no to competing against men, whatever they identify as. I swear, one day, we'll look back at this identifying as what the fuck ever BS and laugh. Right now, it's irritating.
They could've also not paid her AND kicked her out.
Gotta learn how to take a W
This might explain the situation

The Olympics neither confirms for denies that the two 'female' boxers banned by the IBA were trannies, just that the Olympics 'doesn't discriminate'.
Two Words:------> "HORSE PUCKEY"!!!!!!!! The IBA did THE TESTING AND FOUND THESE LOOSERS TO BE MEN...the IOC did nothing to PROTECT the women...the words of the IOC are nothing but CHEESY!!!!!
The IBA SHOULD BE THE ORGANIZATION THAT HAS LAST WORD NOT THE IOC!!!!
Having mens and womens sports segregated is already a form of discriminating, and thats OK!
