New Delhi. Taiwan’s ‘controversial’ boxer Lin Yu-Ting has started with a win in the Olympic Games being played in Paris. Lin Yu-Ting defeated Sitora Turdibekova of Uzbekistan in the women’s 57 kg category boxing. Actually, there is a controversy over Lin Yu-Ting’s gender. It is being claimed that Lin has male chromosomes. Earlier, Lin was disqualified from the World Championship organized by the International Boxing Association (IBA) in Delhi in 2023.
It just happened again at the Olympics.

Now the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has approved Lin to play in the Olympics, due to which anger is being seen among boxers and fans. Not only this, the International Olympic Committee has also taken over the responsibility from the International Boxing Association Olympics on financial, ethical and operational issues. Even before Lin in the Paris Olympics, a controversy has erupted over another boxer. Algeria’s Imane Khelife is also accused of having male chromosomes. Like Lin, Imane Khelife was also removed from the World Championship organized by the International Boxing Association (IBA) in Delhi in 2023.

Let us tell you that Imane Kheleif defeated Italy’s Angela Carini in the women’s 66 kg category on Thursday. In fact, Carini withdrew from the match just 46 seconds after the match started. She said that Kheleif’s punches were so strong that she felt she would get injured. After this, the controversy regarding their gender started once again. However, defending its decision to allow Lin and Kheleif to play in the Olympics, the National Olympic Committee said that every player is following the competition eligibility rules. Those who are in controversy are women in their passports.
