France has opened a probe into cyber bullying following a complaint by the Algerian boxer. JK Rowling, Musk and Trump are named in the complaint.
Why wonât the Algerian boxer just agree to take a gender test to end it once and for all?
Algeria only recognises M and F genders, nothing in between.
end what?
thereâs enough gaps in the ibaâs processes to reasonably assume they made the entire thing up in order to invalidate results against an unbeaten russian boxer at the 2023 world championships
iâm self-aware enough to understand that calling something a ârussian misinformation campaignâ is an incredibly cheap cop out that automatically invalidates most arguments, but there isnât a better descriptor that fits this situation
even then a publicly released test wouldnât resolve anything. most people have already made up their mind and wonât change it based on new information.
Great interview with Cam McEvoy on ABC Offsiders, how he prepared and changed his training methods for the Paris 50 metres, drawing on his learning from his tertiary education in Physics.
I do not care what the back story or motivation for this is, it canât be compelling enough to tolerate or forgive. Shameful
he can touch gravel
Sucks but he is a Pom deep down so was always a chance of happening. Hopefully he has no further success though
Is he going to pay back all that AIS funding?
LOL
send his blood tests to wada
Leave her alone, she is a strong courageous woman that gave it a go!
Meh, Aussies donât give a â â â â about silver medals anyhow.
Femke was likely stuffed after her effort in the relay.
still my favourite moment from the games.
McLaughlin should be running 400m flat too and relays. surely jumping hurdles slows you down more than 2 seconds.
Mick Molloy and Titus OâRielly did a really good podcast on the boxing issues at the Olympics. It appears the gender concerns for the Algerian boxer are completely unfounded.
It is well worth a listen to understand the real back story.
Seems well founded given it appears there is little truth to any gender issues for the Algerian athlete.

Paras about to start. Nine has full broadcasting rights. It was promising 13 hours of live coverage a day on C9 and Gem.
She ran 47 low in the 4x4 final (ie well faster than Bolâs mixed leg). Just no one noticed because it set up the US to win by the length of the straight.
Edit 47.71 vs Bolâs 48.0 in the mixed according to athletics weekly
