    It was interesting watching the recent World Boxing Under 19 championships in terms of which countries were there & which were not. The IBA held its "Youth World Championships" at the same time. Kazakhstan sent fighters to both tournaments. Uzbekistan only sent fighters to the IBA tournament. Golovkin has been appointed to a significant role in World Boxing so that should help keep the Kazakhs on board. He's also an Olympics official with them. Was surprised to see Poland, Mexico, Ireland, France & Puerto Rico still aligned with the IBA. The Frogs used plenty of IBA officials at the Olympics which may explain what went on there. Meanwhile the IBA were openly undermining the Olympic tournament. China is a big domino that needs to fall in terms of women's boxing. The value of having brought India across was evident in last week's tournament.

    Another boost for boxing is that it's been retained in the Commonwealth games for 2026. That body had a purge on sports when an Australian state bailed out of hosting duties. Boxing is one of ten sports that's managed to be retained. Presumably b/c it's actually worth watching & can draw an audience.

    Boys have p*nises, Girls don't, if knowing that makes me an expert then yeah..... im an expert. Imane's medical report says Imane has 5-ARD, you can look that up. And Imane's new medical record says Imane has a micropenis and testes but im sure you will try and gloss over that fact to preserve credibility over something you staunchly denied.

    You mean the so-called "leaked French medical report" that hasn't been corroborated by a single reputable international news source? Cool story bro.

    ..."that fact". :lol: Idiot.

    there is no name or personal information in the "leaked document".. I hope somebody will put the whole thing online, they are discrediting themself more with this type of ****... I can't judge somebody without evidence, it's all a witch hunt.

    I'm pretty sure that forging someone's medical report is a crime. Hard to imagine that someone just made it up and put it out under his own name, with how easy it would be to disprove if it was fabricated (Just contact the two hospitals mentioned...). I guess stranger things have happend, but it's all consistant with the initial IBA report and what is telling is that there is no reports or proof in the other direction, that Khelif is a woman.

    The tinfoil hat brigade are desperate for this boxer to be a man, she does have a masculine look tbf.

    For transparency it would make sense for an independent medical exam to be carried out for clarity and then the issue can be put to bed one way or the other. Until then it's all he said she said.

    If there is an existing report I'm confused as to why it hasn't been shown. If confidentiality is an issue then why is it ok to tell people the results, surely the IOC would have been shown the report.

    Why is this so sketchy.

    They won't carry out an independent medical exam because they already know she's a biological man. They don't want that backlash.

    IOC, or it's boxing body anyway, had policy of just going by what's written in the passport, for those Olympic Games at least (Why this decision was made is a story on it's own). So They never carried out any investigations or requested a report themselves.

    I'm not sure if this is report that came from the IBA investigation - I don't believe so, since from what I recall, labs in Turkey and India were mentioned at the time. This seems like something that Imane and family might've been trying to figure out on their own - which was now leaked (or, alternatively - some genius fabricated non existing medical report. In that case it should be discredited in few days and reporter can expect a police to knock on his door, I'd imagine).

    If "tinyfoil hat brigade" is desperate for boxer to be a man, the mainstream and the people who were laughing off the "conspiracy theorists" are desperate for boxer to be a woman. Egos and credibility are at play - and people will go to amazing lengths to protect those.

    Ok fair enough. Can you provide the official statement, report from a governing body confirming this?
