Italian boxer Angela Carini lost to Algeria's Imane Khelif just 46 seconds into their bout at the 2024 Paris Olympics, raising concerns about gender eligibility in sports. Khelif and another athlete were previously disqualified from the 2023 World Boxing Championships due to a rule against athletes with XY chromosomes competing in women's events. The International Olympic Committee allowed Khelif to compete, despite ongoing debates about fairness and safety in women's boxing.
