Algerian boxer Imane Khelif faced global backlash during the Paris Olympics after being accused of failing gender eligibility tests, though the IOC allowed her to compete. She won gold in the women’s welterweight division, sparking further controversy, with figures like Donald Trump and the IBA challenging her participation.
Despite the criticism, Khelif remains defiant, denying transgender claims and filing lawsuits against Elon Musk and J.K. Rowling for cyber-harassment. The controversy affected her family, but she remains focused on defending her title at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
