Algerian representative Iman Khelif became the Olympic boxing champion in the women’s 66 kg weight category. In the final, she defeated China’s Yang Liu with a score of 5-0.
Previously, Iman faced accusations of being transgender and participating in the Olympics fraudulently. However, these accusations were false and aimed at discrediting the athlete.
Iman Khelif has been involved in boxing since a young age and has participated in all women’s world championships since 2018. Due to persistent slander on social media, she had to show her childhood photos and birth certificate. Khelif was born and raised as a girl in a religious family. In Algeria, sex change operations are prohibited.
Iman simply has a high level of testosterone, but she is a woman.
