Algeria’s Iman Khalif had a boxing match with Italy’s Angela Carini on Thursday in the Paris Olympics 2024. This match lasted only 46 seconds. In these 46 seconds, Iman injured Angela. In such a situation people got angry. They are saying that after watching the match, it felt as if a man was beating a woman.
Why are people calling Iman a man?
In fact, a few hours before the gold medal match of the Boxing World Championship in the year 2023, Iman Khalif was disqualified. It was said that Iman is not eligible to play matches in the women’s category. This is the reason why controversy has erupted regarding the gender of Iman Khalifa. Actress Kangana Ranaut has also condemned this and called Iman a man. Read what he said.
Kangana Ranaut expressed her anger
Kangana Ranaut, while sharing the photo of Angela Carini, wrote on Instagram, ‘This girl had to fight with a person whose height is 7 feet, who was born as a man, whose body parts are like a man, who looks like a man. I too am like a man and he fights like a man in the boxing ring. But, it says that she is a girl. Now guess yourself who won this boxing match? Before someone takes away your daughter’s job or medal, raise your voice against it. #SaveWomensGame (#SaveWomensSports)’
