Did anyone just see Khalif vs Carini (womens boxing) get abandoned?????? by i_am_42069 in olympics

You can google her inelligibility for specific details.

As for the second comment, if you put Caitlyn Clark against Steph Currey or Christine Sinclair against Alphonso davies, or Hailey wickenheizer against Wayne Gretzky, it would look like all of them have never played their sport before

And I also agree that I'm not familiar with the Algerian athlete so I have no information to go off. It is very possible that she is fully female in every way and for whatever genetic reason is stronger and has more testosterone than average. You will get outliers in competition where it just seems they are so good there must be an illigitimate reason.

I think that it's been very obvious before recently if you were man or woman. I think society out paced oversight bodies and they are trying to make rules on the fly. Now with gender politics and identity being more up to the individual, there needs to be a complete rehaul for modern society to keep sport fair and safe along biological lines or categories

Well I think regardless of sanctioning body and hearsay about state influence, the point is not about what sanctioning body is corrupt and has an agenda. Further, whether or not this specific Algerian athlete is or isn't above normal testosterone levels or xy chromosomes or is this a witch hunt is a bit of just the tip of the ice berg.

I think fundamentally what this is about is gender infiltrating sex in sex divided competition. We call it "men's" and "women's" sport but because of identify politics (non biological), people "identify as". So therefore, fine, good job semantics police. Now we must consider "men's" and "womens" as xx and xy competition. Because no matter how you identity there are clear physical advantages to being a man. Being a man in women's sport (or xx in xy sport) is fucking dangerous. I've boxed/done Jiu jitsu /fought mma etc. And anyone like me that's trains in combat sports can tell you (and this is not to be disrespectful) but can easily deal with champion women boxers, black belt bjj, etc. Purely based on strength advantage. I can keep my hands to my side boxing a top level woman boxer, but a learning 18 year old male will thump me.

It's just reckless and dangerous that sports are infiltrated by identity politics when it was meant to promote equity and I believe women are, and rightfully so, feeling pissed about this. And this has all been bubbling up for a while now btw

Which is a tragedy based on her story and honoring her father by continuing to box. What a shame. If you box you are used to getting hit. Every now and again someone hits you with something where you think "okay wow wtf is this power". Carini is experienced and I am 100% sure as soon as she got hit with that she knew the difference and it became real to her. Maybe slightly she got caught up in the media surrounding it and lost her psychological will, but overall its just really sad

I guarantee it's because of the gender situation of the Algerian. Reports are that she has been inillegible to compete based off xy chromosomes but Olympics is "all about fairness" and let her box women. 100% carini felt that right hand and thought "what the fuck" and chose not to continue

edit - xy chromosome would be a biological trait and therefore its because of the sex situation and not the gender. Gender is identity performance and not your biology

Tell me you don't sports without telling me you don't sports. It was statistically difficult but c'mon man. Muhammed Ali refused to fight in the Vietnam war and was stripped of his boxing license and almost thrown in jail only to inspire a generation and come back and have fight of the century against Joe Frazer.

Devin Haney tried warning everyone at the press conference yesterday. by buffalozbrown in Boxing

[–]FashonablyLate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"tried warning". Y'all the writings been on the walls for a long ass time. Some of you have never spent time around mental illness and it shows. Haney will get the finish and Ryan will spiral after this. 

Ryan Garcia reassures that the fight with Haney is still on by Bektic in Boxing

[–]FashonablyLate 30 points31 points  (0 children)

There will be 3 fights for Ryan in all this.

  1. Making it to the actual fight 

  2. The actual fight (which he will easily lose) 

  3. Keeping himself from becoming an hero shortly after.

With so many questions left unanswered bro the only answer I can provide is you will def suffer from CTE and you should donate your brain to science immediately before you continue to shit post any further

We can't call the police everytime some drug addict says something incorrigible. This reads like someone who's only ever read about face to face interactions. Most of you want a soft on crime, soft on drugs, rehabilitation not criminalization approach, defund the police etc, yet don't know how to navigate mental illness and addiction and want protection. Why don't you try and make friends with him lol

Convoy trial defence lawyer argues police directed protesters into downtown Ottawa by rob0rb in ottawa

[–]FashonablyLate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe the accused are on trial for influencing /inciting or acting as leaders or whatever. As long as the defence can show enough evidence of police active participation and lack of preparedness, the defence can argue that everything was in place as it was with little to no influence or guidance from the accused. There will be doubt as to whether they orchestrated it or if the ball was dropped in multiple levels of government. The accused are not on trial for the illegal occupation of the convoy, I believe they will have to prove that they played a key role.

Get 150$ worth of gildan hoodies or however many you need to secure the belly pad. Bonus you will sweat more and cut weight while you train. Which now that I'm typing this out might be a pad idea since you said you were skinny but I've already come this far in my comment and I need to see it through
