IOC backing during rowHow it started“X” moment eventIOC backs judgeTargeting Lin and KhalifStop “Bullying” plea

Both boxers have reached the semifinals and won medals in their respective categories.

IOC backing during row

The IOC has been clear about its support for Kahlif and Lim, as well as throughout this discussion. President of the International Olympic Committee Thomas Bach stated on Saturday that there is “no doubt” that both boxers are women who have all rights to participate in Olympics Games Paris. On Sunday, The International Olympic Committee accused the International Boxing Association (IBA) of carrying out defective and illegal gender tests on those two players.

How it started

The fight began when Khalif defeated Italy’s Angela Carini within only 46 seconds during their first fight, where Carini had said she never experienced such a powerful blow. The win caused an uproar on social media questioning why Khalif was allowed by Paris to compete while famous personalities like billionaires Musk and author JK Rowling condemned her for participating against other female boxing opponents.

“X” moment event

Staneva had made an “X’ sign with her finger after losing to Lin Yuting from Bulgaria at quarter-finals which compared her “XX” chromosomes against so-called “XY” chromosomes of Lin’s DNA .The gesture brought a renewed spotlight on ongoing gender discussions thus causing more controversies.

Earlier last year Staneva lost to Jeremy Lin at World Championships where later results were turned into No Contest due to Lin’s disqualification. For coach Borislav Georgiev who is Bulgarian claims that gender debated affected judge towards Lam’s favour.

“100 percent. When your boss supports something u try and support it. No other way”, replied Georgiev when asked if IOC support influenced judges’ decision.

IOC backs judge

The Paris Boxing Unit (PBU) is interim unit created by International Olympic Committee Executive Board to oversee the Paris Boxing Games, and protect referees and judges. PBU emphasized its trust in referees and selection procedure for judges that consists of various screening steps, performance criteria and random draws. Moreover every game is review twice: one person watching the field while another reviews it using video.

Targeting Lin and Khalif

In France, Lin Yu Ting and Iman Khalif attracted plenty of attention partly due to their disqualification from 2023 world championships for not meeting stipulated gender eligibility requirements as per IBA.

Since seizing control of the boxing championship from IBA which had lost international recognition in 2023, the International Olympic Committee has been leading the fight for athletes’ rights.

Stop “Bullying” plea

Khalif has spoken out against a wave of hateful scrutiny over misunderstandings about her gender, saying it “undermines human dignity”. She called for an end to bullying of athletes and highlighted the serious impact such behavior can have.

“I send a message to people all over the world, and request of all athletes not to bully them; this act will haunt them for life,” he told Arabic language sports channel SNTV. Video partners. “It is capable of breaking down individuals themselves, it can kill their hearts and minds… It separates people. That’s why I would like to ask them not to bully.”

Gender controversy in Paris boxing remains a controversial topic that has earned nothing but criticism for International Olympic Committee for supporting athletes and fair play despite ongoing inquiries and debates around it.
