How the hell is this being allowed! I’ve seen the volume of medals they are earning - medals which should be earned by women. Men and women are not physically comparable and this is just a line which once again shouldn’t be crossed.

It's all over X.

I mean, boxing 😵‍💫

What kind of a man wants to box against women?

There are some very helpful pictures of them in the article.

In response to your last question - the kind of man who likes to cheat and has to win at all costs.

Among the people I follow, absolute horror, but I'd expect that.

I haven't seen any TRA justifications, they seem to be ignoring it. The press restrictions will make that easy for them to do. 🙄

Olympic boxing seems to be in a right mess, and may not make it into the 2028 games. Looks like it was the IBA that banned these two boxers, but the IBA was stripped of running the boxing at Tokyo and Paris.
