🚨 Boxer Imane Khelif has four-word response after securing medal at Olympics

The Algerian boxer clinched a medal in the Olympics following the fierce debate regarding her participation.

Angela Carini of Italy abandoned her fight against Khelif after just 46 seconds of their fight after she was caught with two punches.

Mass false information circulated that she was transgender spread online like wildfire and prompted the International Olympic Committee to address the speculation.

Khelif was banned by the International Boxing Association after the governing body said she and Taiwan’s Lin Yu-ting failed gender eligibility tests last year.

Yesterday, Khelif took on Hungarian Anna Luca Hamor in the women’s welterweight quarter final and put on a dominant display winning unanimously on the judges scorecards.

As per The Telegraph, she said, “I am a woman” – responding to the criticism and hate that she has had to contend with over the last few days.

“I feel good,” she initially told the BBC. “It’s the first medal for a woman from Algeria. I’m very happy. I want to thank all the world, the Arabic world. Thank you so much…

Khelif will next fight at the Paris Olympics on Tuesday, August 6 when she takes on Janjaem Suwannapheng of Thailand in the 66kg semi-final.
