Thank God I Got Out of the Ring Safely says Former Opponent of Olympic Trans Fighter
"Public Advocate condemns the Olympic Boxing decision to allow men assaulting and punching women in womens boxing," says Eugene Delgaudio, president of Public Advocate. "Its more of the insane and dangerous attacks on common sense coming from the Olympic cabal," Delgaudio says.
As transgender fighters Imane Khelif (Algeria) and Lin Yu-Ting (Taiwan) prepare to enter the ring against female fighters later this week, one of Khelif's former opponents is sounding the alarm over the dangers the men pose.
Mexico's Brianda Tamara Cruz Sandoval, who fought Khelif in December of 2022, told the Telegraph of the extreme danger she felt after absorbing Khelif's punches.
"When I fought her, I felt very out of my depth," Tamara added. "Her blows hurt me a lot. Thank God that day I got out of the ring safely, and it's good that they finally realized."
A video of Sandoval's fight with Khelif reveals the truth of her words. The Mexican fighter seemed to stumble with every punch landed by the Algerian.
Khelif is scheduled to fight Italy's Angela Carini on Thursday.
As Breitbart Sports reported on Monday, both [Khelif and Yu-Ting] were disqualified by the International Boxing Association (IBA) at the 2023 World Games in New Delhi. Khelif was found to have high levels of testosterone. However, the Algerian Olympic Committee would only concede that he had been disqualified for "medical reasons."
Yu-Ting had actually medaled at the World Games and had his award stripped after failing IBA eligibility requirements.
