    Not a fan of Shield's but no woman should have to fight someone who is biologically male. I'm still disturbed by what Imane did to that poor Italian woman in the ring. If it's proven she or her team hid her biological status they should be sued.

    Sounds like a crock of ****, Caster hasn't fathered children. She can't produce sperm, they had sperm donors.

    As I recall it, yes he has fathered children - albeit not in the traditional manner, as one might expect.

    He has testes, it's not so hard to believe that it's possible for him to father a child via artificial insemination processes.

    Heck, it wouldn't really matter if he hadn't, specifically - it's possible for people with this condition to do so, that's the more important point.

    Imane knew. They failed not one, but two tests! 2022 and 2023.

    Their team was going to appeal but withdrew.

    Sounds like to me they surely knew the end of the road.

    I'd be amazed if they didn't know long before that... But certainly by the time of the Olympics, participation was completely impossible to defend, morally.

    They will never fight again unless someone ignores gender eligibility testing.
