The boxing match between Angela Carini and Iman Khalif has stirred significant controversy, primarily due to safety concerns regarding Khalif's physical characteristics. Carini faced intense pressure not to participate given Khalif's history of being disqualified from previous competitions for having male XY chromosomes and elevated testosterone levels. The bout was overwhelmingly one-sided, with Carini overwhelmed within seconds, ultimately calling it quits after just 46 seconds, during which she sustained serious injury and emotional distress. After the match, Carini expressed her heartbreak and disbelief about the fight's fairness, while her coach highlighted the fears expressed by others regarding the dangers of boxing against Khalif. They noted previous opponents had similar alarming experiences, with one Mexican boxer recounting the immense power she felt during her bout with Khalif. The situation raises critical questions about the inclusion and safety of female athletes in contact sports when faced with such disparities in physicality.
