Olympic Boxer Who Was Forced to Fight a Male Quits in Tears After 46 Seconds, Says She’s Never Been Hit So Hard

At this point, we must resolve to end the madness one way or another.

Either everyone will agree to retreat from the truth-denying wokeness that puts women and girls in serious danger, or the demon-possessed swine will simply run themselves over a cliff and drown in the water below. (Matthew 8:28-34, Luke 8:26-37)

At the already blasphemous Olympics in Paris, France, on Thursday, one of the most disgraceful scenes in recent memory unfolded when Italian female boxer Angela Carini, after apparently saying, “None giusto” (“It’s not fair”), lasted only 46 seconds before quitting her match against Algerian boxer Imane Khelif. Khelif had previously failed “gender eligibility tests,” according to the Guardian.

Thursday on the social media platform X, British Olympic medalist and women’s sports advocate Sharron Davies posted a 14-second clip of the punch that staggered Carini and prompted her to signal to her corner.

“I’m so angry at the IOC they learn nothing from history or science & women continually pay the price,” Davis wrote in an accompanying post.

Meanwhile the social media account FairPlayForWomen posted a sequence of shocking clips from the fight.

Here are two clips — the second in slow motion — of the Algerian fighter punching the Italian woman in the face:

Here — in the understatement of the century — Carini appeared to complain about the fight’s fairness:

And here, after the referee declared Khelif the winner, Carini walked away without looking her opponent in the eye and then broke down in tears:

According to The Telegraph U.K. — one of two British news outlets apparently interested in the truth of this matter — Khelif “failed two sex tests” prior to the fight.

Should Imane Khelif be banned from women’s boxing?

But the IOC tried to suppress the controversy. In fact, IOC chief spokesman Mark Adams complained about a “witch hunt” against Khelif.

And the IOC apparently had help from journalists and broadcasters with outlets such as BBC and Eurosport, who either opted not to show the fight live or refused to even mention the controversy on-air.

In fact, a BBC reporter described Carini as merely having “withdrawn” from her bout. The same reporter also attributed the controversy to Khelif’s elevated testosterone levels, which resulted in a prior disqualification. Readers may hear that report below.

“Khelif is not a female with unusually high testosterone levels. He failed a chromosome sex test by the Boxing federation. And Carini didn’t ’withdraw’. She got punched in the face so hard she had to stop the fight,” FairPlayForWomen wrote in a post accompanying the audio clip of the BBC report.

Meanwhile, sports writer Oliver Brown of The Telegraph reported that Carini “abandoned because she had never been punched so hard.”

Brown then blasted the IOC’s Adams and called the entire spectacle “an absolute scandal.”

Sports writer Sean Ingle of The Guardian added context from Carini.

“After the second one (blow to the nose) I couldn’t breathe anymore. I went to my coach and said ‘enough’ because it takes maturity and courage to stop. I didn’t feel like fighting anymore,” she said.

Furthermore, Carini’s coach indicated that she might have a broken nose and that many Italians had tried to warn her.

“I don’t know if her nose is broken. I have to speak with the girl. But many people in Italy tried to call and tell her: ‘Don’t go please: it’s a man, it’s dangerous for you,’” the coach said.

Fortunately, the Khelif-Carini fight will not go unnoticed as the IOC hoped.

On Thursday, X owner Elon Musk reposted and endorsed a post from former collegiate swimmer and prominent women’s sports advocate Riley Gaines.

“Men don’t belong in women’s sports. #IStandWithAngelaCarini Let’s get it trending,” Gaines wrote.

“Absolutely,” Musk replied in a post that had almost 60 million views as of Thursday morning.

Complicating the entire story are claims that Khelif may have failed the gender test due to some form of DSD (difference in sex development), a catch all term for over 40 conditions that can occur before birth, impact sex hormone levels, and yield many other biological anomalies.

DSD exists in very clear distinction to transgenderism as the term is popularly used to describe individuals who reject their biological sex, identifying instead as the opposite sex or any number of nouveau “gender types” that were virtually unheard of just a few years ago.

Whatever Khelif’s circumstances, for many the spectacle of the fight brought back dark memories. Pound for pound, few scenes carry the emotional wallop of biological males absolutely destroying women, while the elite sheepishly channel Leslie Nielsen and murmur “nothing to see here.”

While the Khelif case is presently mudded, we don’t have to look to that bout only as an example of trans athletics going awry. We can even more easily look to a volleyball match in which a female was partially paralyzed after taking a ball to the face which was spiked by a trans player.

Khelif’s case further highlights that citizens, policy makers, athletic regulators, and especially women need to deal with a world where women-only sports are becoming anything but and decide if women’s sports are worth protecting. That women haven’t spoken out in the affirmative with a singular voice is truly astounding.

Correction, August 1, 2024: An earlier version of this article definitively referred to Khelif as male. The article has been updated to reflect the complicated and unclear nature of Khelif’s status.
