Why 'gender row' in Paris Olympics boxing refuses to die down
The Paris Olympics boxing event saw a gender row involving Algeria's Imane Khelif and Taiwan's Lin Yu-ting, both backed by the IOC. IOC president Thomas Bach supported the athletes, challenging the IBA's flawed gender tests. The controversy intensified after Bulgarian boxer Svetlana Kamenova Staneva protested her loss to Lin using an 'X' sign, highlighting chromosome differences.
