Unfortunately from the heart warming and sublime above to the ridiculous and dangerous. Over at the Olympic Wife Beating Arena there were no surprises as one solid shot to the coupon, and apparent broken nose, finished this one as a contest within 40 seconds. Unconfirmed reports that the national anthem at this event's medal ceremony will be replaced by Ludachris hit 'Move Bitch - Get out the way!' That Italian lady deserves huge respect for even getting in the ring. Must have been horrendous knowing how to approach it - getting in the ring, taking a massive smack to the face and then just going 'Fuck this - I'm out' is probably overall going to be more powerful than if she'd refused to fight because people can now literally see how mental it is!

Absolutely. I'm amazed that this can take place at the Olympics, it would be incredibly difficult to get this sanctioned as a 'pro' fight. It will be very interesting to see what happens in the next round.

The only thing I will add is that she's lost 9 fights previously I believe which seems every strange if there's that big a power difference?

Amy Broadhurst and Irish ex-World Champion is one of them. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amy_BroadhurstWas that the BBC article mate because it was a bit bizarre being honest - it mentions they were tested for excessive testosterone but a quick google shows they were actually tested, and failed, sex tests. Both didn't challenge at the court of arbitration either which probably tells its own story. Reason ask is because BBC referenced 9 defeats too out of 50 fights too - what it doesn't mention is 6 of the first 9 fights were defeats so it's 3 defeats in the last 41 which tells a different story.

Yeah it's all very bizarre mate, quite a few early defeats followed by a period of wins but she's not been knocking fighters into submission with only 5 stoppages in total. It was a tweet by Amy Broadhurst herself that flagged it up to be fair, she appears to be defending her from what I've seen....... boxrec.com/en/box-am/899786

The whole thing is a fucking ludicrous minefield and hopefully this is the nonsense exposed to sun light. Can't remember exactly put think there's a study where a 60KG male powerlifter has equal power to a female powerlifter weighing over 90kg so how the bloody hell can essentially a bloke climb into a ring with women of roughly the same weight - it's insane. The inter-sex side of it is more difficult but it's massively unfair to biological women any way it's dressed up - Caster Semenya has fathered children yet got to run v women!

Kellie Harrington also beat Imane Khelif in the Tokyo 2020 Olympics on the way to gold for Ireland, in fact she battered her 5-0 on points.
I'm not downplaying the potential for disaster for a sport like boxing to have a complete mismatch of a bout but it doesn't seem like previous to these games there's been an issue of her having a massive power advantage over her opponents? (yes I know she was suspended for the World Championships in 2022)

Absolute clown world.
Folk rendered powerless to say what's happening right before their eyes because of lunatic pandering.
Also, I know commies have always loved cheating the Olympics for PR back home, but there are some manly looking women in the China team. Bribed IOC too scared to go after them for this and doping.
The Olympics is an utter sham.

As far as I know, and as long as biology and doctors don't tell me otherwise: Gender IS only a social construction*; not when it comes to Man and Woman since these are the only real biological differences, but for all the other variations. *apart from malformations or fucked up hormone balances

Come on guys, Who cares if a woman gets her face caved in by a biological male, the most important thing is that it makes olympic organisers feel smug, virtuous and “right on” … that’s what’s important here, not the safety of athletes!

People still aren’t addressing the elephant in the room here.
Her career record is decent but not spectacular, she was thrashed by Harrington at the last Olympics and has stopped 5 opponents in 50 fights.
Im not saying the concerns aren’t real of course they are, but what’s changed, have her testosterone levels gone up? (I would expect them to be monitored closely but I could be wrong?)

Excellent wins for GB in the Mens and women's hockey. Blokes all over the French but concede a sloppy one, continue to pound them and win 2-1. Girls beat South Africa then put 5 past the USA to reach the quarters, think they're just getting going. Now it gets interesting

Don’t think it’s an elephant in the room really as essentially they’ve lost 3 of their last 41 fights despite having a distinct competitive advantage so if they didn’t have it would they be good enough to even qualify? It would be like me falling off my Vespa at the start of the 100m then saying I didn’t have an advantage because Bolt beat me into silver. I’m not sure a line of enquiry along the lines of is it ok for someone with male sex hormones, higher testosterone and bollocks to punch women so long as they’re a bit shit at it and lose sometimes is going get very far being honest. Not being arsey but just not quite following the logic.

Truls Möregårdh Sweden - Omar Assar Egypt
Table tennis 🏓 Quarter Final
They've met twice before. Egypt 2-0. But remember Truls won against the outstanding #1 in the world. The egyptian guy has played for two Swedish clubs earlier in his career.
