Outrage after biological male boxer breaks Angela Carini’s nose at Olympics #parisolympics2024 #IStandWithAngelaCarini #ImaneKhelif

Italian boxer Angela Carini broke down in tears after abandoning her bout against Algerian opponent Imane Khelif just 46 seconds into the fight, igniting significant controversy at the Olympics.

The 25-year-old welterweight’s headgear became dislodged twice within the brief encounter with Khelif, who was controversially allowed to compete despite being disqualified from the women’s world championships last year for failing testosterone and gender eligibility tests.

At the North Paris Arena, Carini explained her decision to withdraw was due to the impact of the blows she received. "I am heartbroken," Carini confessed. "I stepped into the ring to honour my father. I’ve always been called a warrior, but I had to prioritise my health. I’ve never been hit this hard before."
