Boxing Master IMane Khelif is aiming at the second Olympic gold in LA

Published

on

Imane Khelif, who won the Gold Boxing Paris Olympics among the order of sexual qualification, is determined to defend his title during the Los Angeles Games in 2028 and says that he will not be intimidated by US President Donald Trump.

Trump signed an executive order prohibiting transgender women from women’s sports in the United States last month and called Khelif a “male boxer” after signing the order.

“I will give you a straightforward answer, I’m not transgender,” ITV said in an interview.

“This does not apply to me and does not intimidate me.”

The board of the International Olympic Committee recommended the turn of boxing in matches 2028 on Monday, and Khelif said that she dreamed of maintaining the title in California.

“Of course, the second gold medal. In America, Los Angeles … I (I will) defend with all this gold medal,” she said.

“I think that if venerable imane operated in 50% of its potential, then today’s Ineane Khalif is even more motivated and determined.”

Khelif was disqualified by the International Boxing Association at the World Championships in 2023 after the test, which, according to the body, meant that she did not qualify for fighting as a woman in sex.

However, IBA lost Olympic recognition over management issues, and the International Olympic Committee cleared Khelif to compete in Paris, aggressively defending his position after robust criticism.

The competing body of IBA, World Boxing, received momentary recognition as an international managing body of this sport last month.

The recommendation still requires a final approval by the IOC during a session in Greece, and the outgoing president Thomas Bach said he was convinced that the session would approve it.

“At this point I can say that IBA is a past,” said Khelif. “As we say in Algeria, those who have nothing to hide should not be afraid.”

The debate on the inclusion of transgender athletes and athletes with differences in sexual development (DSD) in women’s sport was a key issue in the presidential race of the IOC, and the election set for Thursday.

“I hope that the next President of the IOC leads with real sport, remains involved in the Olympic principles and maintains fair play values,” said Khelif.

Keyshawn Davis with Edwin de los Santos canceled

Published

on

The highest rank announced on Friday that the Keyshawna Davis’ fight of Edwin de Los Santos is turned off after Davis did not get into weight earlier on the same day.

The fight was scheduled for Saturday evening at the Scope Arena in the hometown of Davis, Norfolk, Virginia.

Davis was supposed to defend the delicate WBO title against de los Santos in the main event. However, Davis weighed 139.3 pounds, 4.3 pounds above the 135 pounds weight limit. Due to the weight mission, Davis was deprived of the title, and De Los Santos would be the only warrior to win the championship.

According to the promoter de Los Santos, Sampson Lewkowicz, de los Santos questioned Miss weight, and both sides entered into long negotiations to maintain the intact main event. The fight was canceled after the parties could not reach an agreement.

“We renegotiated 10 pounds plus money, but we came to the conclusion that Davis never tried to earn a scale,” said Lewkowcz Salvador Rodriguez ESPN. “He came to dance on a scale. I didn’t want what happened [Devin] Haney and [Ryan] Garcia will happen. We canceled the fight. “

Lewkowcz referred to Garcia the missing weight before his title of April 2024 with Haney, who won Garcia by a decision before the result was repealed to the lack of failure, when Garcia obtained a positive result for a drug improving performance.

“The most crucial thing is Edwin,” said Lewkowcz. “I hope he will give an example.”

The delicate fight of Abdullah Mason with Jeremia Nakathila was raised to the main event on the Saturday card. Kelvin Davis, Keyshawn’s older brother, was transferred to a co-manan party against Nahir Albright in a delicate Junior fight.

Image: Crawford Brushes Off Keyshawn's Weight Miss, But Fans Suspect a Calculated Move

Terenka Crawford supported his friend, Keyshawn Davis, after he arrived at the amount of 4.3 overweight at 139.3 pounds for defending his lithe WBO belt against the pretender to the Edwin de los Santos ranking, on Saturday, June 7, in Norfolk in Virginia.

Miss intended weight?

The former world champion in four letters Crawford was nonchalant about Keyshawn (13-0, 9 KO) missing by such a wide margin, saying: “This is happening.” However, fans perceive this as Davis’s insidious strategy to gain an advantage and avoid a potentially changing career loss compared to immense punching Southpaw de los Santos (16-2, 14 KO).

They note that Keyshawn has not shown any signs of exhaustion or fatigue, which is a characteristic signal that he deliberately overlooked the weight to the game. People perceive Davis as “Bully weighing” Noticing that he seemed to weigh over 160 pounds in his last fight with the lithe champion WBO Denys Berinchyk on February 14. “

Proposed hydration limit

Some fans think it must be RThe eodency limit of six pounds for tomorrow morning to prevent Keyshawn 15 to 20 pounds and looking like a full average weight when it enters the ring. The hydration limit would make the fight a bit fair.

Crawford defends Miss Davis

“He says he has shifted the weight. Nobody knows his body. Time to get up,” said Crawford WarriorReacting to Keyshawn Davis is missing on Friday. “Many times people do not gain weight. This is happening.”

You must wonder how Crawford would feel if his opponent missed the weight of 4.5 pounds for their fight. Did he move his arms, behaving, as if it was only one of these things or would he shout a bloody murder? I saw Crawford complaining without interruption, pressing to enhance the salary or the hydration limit on the day of the fight.

“It probably has grown out of it. I am not sure how it goes as far as possible to become empty, but I will keep up,” said Abdullah Mason Warrior About the lack of Keyshawn weighing. “I’m still looking for grabbing this belt.”

Fresh look at weighing

To make Keyshawn look like physically rested and unlimited, it is a red flag for fans on social media, that it was intentional on his part. He did not even try to bring weight because he said that it was his last fight at 135. So, if this was his last fight, why, at hell, Keyshawn would be worried? Think about it.

What can you get thanks to weight when you know that this is your last fight in the division and you have to win? If you are a bang, who should fight for 147 or 154, why should you want to kill yourself to get distance on weight?

“First of all, tomorrow I care about Nakoscilia. Either way, I’m going for this belt. Perhaps. If he moves to 140, we’ll meet at 140,” said Mason about him and Keyshawn finally fighting in a lithe welterweight.

Everything that Mason has to do is win tomorrow evening against Nakathila, and he will fight for the free title WBO Lightweight Axt against No. 1 Sam Noakes. However, as Abdullah looked, he doesn’t speak lithe long. It seems that he will be forced to move to 140 in several fights.

“Boxing will determine who I am fighting when I get there. I think it’s boxing, he grows out of this weight class and he fights for 140,” said Mason. “So maybe I will meet him at the age of 140. This is boxing. This is happening. I still want to win this title, but it comes.”

I would not be so sure that I met Keyshawn at the age of 140 if I was a freemason because it may not happen. Although Davis looked in the last two fights, only 140 will be exhausted, because it is enough. It must be at least 147, and preferably 154. Apparently it will be based on the fight in a younger medium scale and try every trick in the book to keep your weight to avoid this division filled with sharks. This is where he should be if he was not a massive tyrant.

“I know my set of skills. I know what I can do when I enter this ring. When this bell rings, it is different. When I get in front of the opponent, and I feel that something has something, then my IQ goes up. My skill configuration goes up. I feel like every opponent who put in with me, I will be able to keep my own and turn to the end,” said Abdullah.

Keyshawn Davis is no longer the WBO Lightweight champion after he did not get a huge margin.

“As for the Featherlight WBO division, if the WBO master does not bring weight, the title is abandoned in the scale, regardless of whether the claimant brings weight.

“If the claimant wins, they become a fresh WBO champion. If the former champion, the title remains empty.

“The vacancy should be filled with two highest available pretenders in the division when he defines the championship committee.

“Currently, Noakes sits at number one and (Abdullah) Mason is number two.”

Before the defeat of the scale, Davis was looking for an impressive victory in his home.

“I chose him because I know that he will come to create a great fight for fans who leave. And it will be a great fight, but he will not hear and fresh.

“He comes to fight and implements the performance because his last was rubbish.”

Perhaps by anticipating his title loss 24 hours earlier, Davis added: “I know who I am with or without. I am a businessman. I introduce great fights. I introduce great performances.”

De los Santos used his platform to explain his long absence in the ring.

“I had a health problem. I had a blood clot in my leg. Unfortunately, I had to be out of the ring because of this.

“This time the result will be different because I overcame death. And after defeating my death I know that there is nothing more.”
