Athletistic/OI-2024. Italian boxer Angela Carini has ended her participation in the 2024 Olympic Games.

In the 1/8 final match, she had to meet the Algerian athlete Iman Khelif, who did not pass the gender test. After assessing the strength of her opponent’s blows, Carini decided to withdraw from the fight, which lasted only 46 seconds. After the fight, she burst into tears in the ring.

“I was very injured. I received a second blow to the nose, it hurt so much that I didn’t want to continue,” La Gazzetta dello Sport quotes Carini.

After the 2023 World Cup, Khelif failed a sex determination test because he was found to have XY chromosomes.
