Two Men Approved to Box Against Women in Olympics

I doubt many people will find this news shocking since we're talking about the same Olympic Games organizers who decided it would be a good idea to turn the opening ceremonies into a transgender mockery of The Last Supper. (Something they still insist isn't true and it was all just a tragic coincidence.) Now, adding insult to injury, and potentially even more physical injury, the organizers of the games have announced that two men who had previously been banned from international women's athletics will be allowed to compete in boxing matches against actual female athletes at the games. Imane Khelif of Algeria and Lin Yu-Ting of Taiwan will be unleashed in the boxing ring against female athletes in the coming days. At least one former Olympian is warning that this decision will eventually wind up with female athletes being killed. (Daily Mail)

Two boxers - banned from the world championships for being deemed biologically male – have been cleared to compete at the Olympics as women.

A row has erupted in Paris after it emerged that Imane Khelif, of Algeria, and Lin Yu-Ting, of Taiwan, were thrown out of the tournament last year amid questions over their biological sex.

Now, one former Olympian has claimed that gender ideology ‘will get women KILLED’ while Northern Ireland great Barry McGuigan described the situation as ‘shocking’.

The indispensable Riley Gaines called out that nonsense as she always does.

This is far worse than the "typical" debates we see regarding transgender athletes competing in women's sports. It's bad enough when men are allowed to dominate in non-contact women's sporting events such as track and field or golf and tennis. But when we're talking about contact sports including boxing, wrestling, or judo, serious physical injuries can take place. In fact, it's already happened. In 2021, transgender fighter Fallon Fox literally broke his female opponent's skull during a bout. Imane Khelif, who will be fighting in the Olympics, has already been caught on video brutally beating a woman into submission and sending her to the hospital. You can watch the action below if your stomach can take it.

That's obviously not a woman and I make no apologies for pointing out the obvious. That's a dude who was too mediocre to compete against other males and now enjoys beating the daylights out of women. And the organizers of the Olympic Games are about to let him do it again.

Contrary to the insistence of the Olympic Committee, forcing a man to take female hormones for any given period of time does not eliminate the natural physical advantages that he has over women. Imane Khelif has already proven this repeatedly and it's unclear if he was ever seriously taking the proscribed levels of hormones to begin with. That's how he managed to be disqualified from other international boxing events. But now, for the sake of political correctness, the organizers of the Olympic Games in Paris are about to let the same thing happen again.

Just this week, my wife and I were listening to one of the latest episodes of the Our Fake History podcast dealing with the true origins of the first Olympic Games. The historian who hosts the show uncovered ancient records showing that the games were not as gentile and sportsmanlike as we have been led to believe. Particularly in the sport of boxing, competitors were frequently beaten to death (literally) before a match would be declared finished. But at least it was all men beating men to death in those days. It's tragic to see how far we have fallen since then.
