Imane Khelif must prove that she is a woman before the world boxing allows the Olympic master to compete in the events of Los Angeles 2028 matches.

The 26-year-old who won the gold medal at the Olympic Games in Paris in 2024 under the storm of advertising over gender principles, he is in the face of expulsion from the competition starting this summer.

After a breakthrough ruling of Great Britain, that the authorities can recognize women only as a born woman from birth, Khelif is in favor of the principles of the gray zone.

This scenario results from Khelif, which has differences in sex development (DSD) after tests marked with XY chromosomes. According to the modern rules implemented by World Boxing, the modern baking organ at the Olympic Games, Khelif will have to agree to the latest test procedures.

World boxing said that “they will introduce mandatory sexual tests to determine the rights of men and women who want to take part in their competitions.

“The introduction of compulsory tests will be part of the modern policy of” sex, age and weight “to ensure the safety of all participants and ensure a competitive chance of chances for men and women.”

They added: “World Boxing wrote to the Algerian Boxing Federation to inform that Imane Khelif will not be able to participate in the women’s category in the Eindhoven Box Cup or in any world boxing event until Inene Khelif passes sexual tests.”

A letter sent by World Boxing to the Algerian Boxing Federation on May 30, 2025. He states:

“Imane Khelif cannot participate in the women’s category in the Eindhoven Box Cup, June 5-10, 2025 and every global boxing event, until Inene Khelif is genetic sex examination in accordance with the principles of world boxing and testing procedures.

“According to global boxing laws, corrections to the rules of competition are usually introduced by the Congress. However, in special or emergency circumstances, the World Boxing Executive Council is entitled to make immediate corrections, when the rule is no longer functional or when evolving conditions require change.

“In May 2025, the Management Board benefited from this authority and adopted modern criteria for eligibility to participate in boxing categories specific to gender. These modern qualifying principles were developed with a clear purpose of protecting athletes in combat sport, especially taking into account the physical risk associated with boxing in the Olympic style.

“Please inform you that the global boxing policy, if the athlete’s sex certificate is questioned by the athlete’s federation or world boxing, the athlete does not qualify for competition until the dispute is resolved.”

Due to Khelif’s previous objection to the fury surrounding the qualifications, there is a possibility that the Algeria star may decide to transform professional or retire in sport.

The genetic test policy was in the past criticized for distinguishing fighters for ridicule and abuse.

Lin yu-yinting from Taiwan, which also won gold in Paris, is in the face of the same control that goes forward at the world boxing competition.

By tagging the testing procedure, World Boxing added: “The modern policy of world boxing and the introduction of tests means that all athletes over 18 years of age who want to participate in global boxing or sanctioned competition will have to undergo a PCR genetic test (polymerase chain reaction) to determine their sex in birth and everifality.

“The PCR test is a laboratory technique used to detect a specific genetic material, in this case the SRY gene, which reveals the presence of a Y chromosome, which is a biological sex indicator. The test can be performed by nasal swab/mouth, saliva or blood.

“Athletes who are considered men at birth, as evidenced by the presence of the Y genetic material (Sry gene) or with a difference in sexual development (DSD), in which male androgenization occurs, will be entitled to compete in the men’s category.”

The funds of world boxing seem to be a modern point of reference of international boxing among all the national federations involved.

In the September World Championships in Liverpool they will give a huge indication of who aims to compete in La 2028.

Coach Greg Hackett doubt that Terenka Crawford can eliminate the undisputed master’s super medium weight Canelo Alvarez on September 13. He did not see this type of power from 38-Iish Crawford (41-0, 31 KO), which suggests that he could knock out “bull” like Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KO).

Crawford’s style will not be canelo

Hackett says that if it were 15-round days, he thinks Crawford would knock out Canelo, but not in a 12-round fight. Canelo is too challenging. Bud is not a kind of warrior who goes out on a knockout, like some fighters in other weight classes. It is more type that is satisfied with the change of opponents, winning the decision, collects withdrawal and disappears for a year before he fights again.

“Canelo Alvarez is a type you have to kill. I’m not saying that Crawford has no power to kill him, but to kill him, you must have unlimited ammunition,” said coach Greg Hackett to do this Sports media YSM About whether Crawford can eliminate Canelo Alvarez on September 13.

Canelo’s establishment would require a enormous puncher, and they would have to be ready to stand and trade. Crawford has no power or readiness to stand in the trenches and fight with Alvarez. God, as if he always makes opponents.

Crawford’s fight with Errol Spence was the only one in his career in which he fought aggressively all the time, and this is because he fought with a drained shell. Spence lost significant importance to achieve a limit of 147 pounds for this fight, and looked lethargy and tardy. In April 2022 he was also outside the ring for more than a year after the war with Yordenis Ugas.

15 rounds vs. 12: Crawford Factor

“In 15 consecutive days, yes, because Bud is a 15-round warrior. But within 12 consecutive days, no,” said Hackett about Crawford potentially rejecting Canelo in the early 1980s, before the longer 15-round results were antiquated. “Canelo will not let you kill him. He is not a bull to go out. He is only one of those bulls he holds in the barn. He did destroyed many people. Maybe you can at him, but throw him? No.”

Crawford did not show aggressiveness in the fight against Israil Madrimov at the age of 154 to have a chance to destroy Canelo. He began to apply him to Madrimov at 10., and even then it only happened because he would become passive. Canelo will still be too perilous for Crawford to fight Madrimov. He took him inside, hitting him in the upper results. He couldn’t do it against Canelo because his inner game is too good.

The age of Terenca, the force of the impact

“I know he [Crawford] It may hit, but I don’t know if it’s a bizarre blow. Crawford would have to fight at a pace, which is almost uncontrolled, “Greg said about what Terenka would have to do to stop Canelo. But what we must remember about Bud is not a child. If Bud was 28 or 29 years elderly, I could be:” Oh, ***, maybe “. But he plus [Note: Crawford turns 38 on September 28]. “

Crawford’s knockout comes from joining contracts that his opponents do not see. He was never a huge hit in any weight class he fought for. Even at the age of 135, he did not have the strength of the former featherweight master Yuriorkis Gamboa, who fought in his third weight class. Gamboa hit more than Crawford.

MasterClass, not KO

“This is where it is evolving, and that’s why I say that we will not see a break, but we will see one of these Masterclass performances [from Crawford]. I understand this, but I don’t see a knockout, “said Hackett.

Crawford fought at a tardy pace, moving to 154 at his last fight after a year outside the ring. It is clearly packed by weight, connecting to the fight with Canelo. This means that it will be slower, moving at a measured pace, because it will not have strength carrying all this additional weight.

Jermall Charlo says that Terence Crawford makes the same mistake, his brother, Jermell Charlo, committed when he was approaching the height from 154 to 168 to challenge Canelo Alvarez for his titles in 2023.

Jermell was too leisurely after gaining weight and did not have the same speed as during the fight in the medium weight munior. The Crawford frame is smaller than Jermell’s and will be an uncomplicated victim for Canelo (63-2-2, 39 KO) Chips In the fight on September 13 at the Allegant stadium in Las Vegas.

Risky Crawford mass

Jermall asks what the general goal of Crawford is to move to a super medium weight in this fight. He notes that Crawford is not 168-pound and has not fought in the weight class before. He didn’t want to tune. So what is his justification?

“My brother fought with Canelo, not me. I like Crawford in this fight, and he wanted to remain substantial. But my brother told me that this is the mistake he made,” said Jermall Charlo to The mediaSpeaking of his brother, Jermell Charlo, gaining weight, rising from 154 to challenge Canelo Alvarez in 2023.

We saw how Jermell gave up attempts after he was hit with some arrows at an early stage of the fight with Canelo two years ago. His own blows did not affect the Mexican star, because his power did not move since 154. Crawford’s situation is even worse. He looked like a destitute growth from 147 to 154 in his last fight with Israil Madrimov on August 3.

Leisurely Terenca, Canelo’s victim

“He thought he was rising on the scale:” I have to become massive. I have to beat Canelo. ” It surprised him more slowly.

Jermall is right. With a weighty, which Crawford packed in the last year, will be leisurely, dull and an uncomplicated goal for the substantial shots of Canelo. When Terenka feels this power from a Mexican star, he will be on his bike, pedaling as soon as possible to survive.

Money over sense: crawford

“You want a great one to absorb Canelo’s blows. But technically this is not Crawford we will see. Crawford goes to fight Canelo at 168, when he is not 168-pound. Where is the motivation? You have to think about it – said Jermall.

It is obvious what is Crawford’s motivation to go to 168 to challenge Canelo. It’s money. He wants cash for retirement to live like a great king in Omaha, Nebraska. Bud has already shown us that with his decision not to move to 168 and moist your feet, fighting once before his fight with September 13.

It is not that Crawford did not have the opportunity to fight and tune in 168. His last fight took place on August 3 against Israil Madrimov, which meant that he had 13 months of free time to make a warfine in Super Middle Wweight with one of these pretenders:

– Christian Milli
– Edgar Berlanga
– Oslyys Iglesias
