‘Tonight Was My Revenge’: Female Boxer Wins Title After Olympics Gender Controversy

Female boxer Angela Carini celebrated taking home the 2024 Italian women’s title for boxing after being forced to fight in the 2024 Paris Olympics against a competitor with a sex development condition who had failed previous gender tests with the International Boxing Association (IBA).
The victory for Carini came months after she had to endure being beaten up in the ring by Imane Khelif, an Olympic boxer from Algeria, who had failed past gender tests — per the IBA — and was later allegedly proven to be a biological male, according to a French journalist who obtained a medical report.
After winning the title, the female boxer said, “Tonight was my revenge,” a Telegraph reporter wrote on X. “Some 2024 for Angela Carini. She endured anguish and gross unfairness at the Paris Olympics, forced to withdraw after 46 seconds against an opponent who had failed two sex tests. Four months on, she has just won the Italian title…”

After Carini quit her match against Khelif — who had been allowed to fight in the female boxing category despite the controversy — the Algerian boxer went on to get the gold in the women’s welterweight final boxing match, something many criticized, as The Daily Wire has previously reported.
Megyn Kelly, host of “The Megyn Kelly Show” podcast, blasted the move by writing, in all caps, about how unfair it was that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) awarded Khelif the gold medal in a women’s event.
