You do know there’s a difference between how amateur and pro boxing works, right? The point is not to knockout the opponent, but to land clean punches. Women also have to wear protective headgear, so obviously knockouts are rare.

The top rated pound-for-pound AM boxer has 28 KOs in 103 fights with 88% wins.
The top rated pound-for-pound Pro boxer has 24 KOs in 27 fights with 100% wins.

It seems like your idea of Olympic boxing is based on Pro boxing, but it’s two different sports.

162% increase in punching power, it's no different than being a tall guy in basketball or a broad shouldered guy in swimming right?

Yeah, its a bit of a pretzel, that's why I don't think this is the hill to die on for this cause.

I think it legitimately hurts the movement of keeping trans out of sports. I think you're losing the more moderate people that were swinging in favour of seeing the logic of keeping trans out of sports by saying a person born with a vagina that has some very rare one off biological disorder is also precluded.

Oh well, is what it is, see how it all pans out.

It's different, xy vs xx right. It's not like these athletes have a massive weight advantage because flyweights compete against other flyweights and so on.

Males have a major advantage across the board they punch harder but also have higher cardiac output meaning more endurance which is the reason women compete against other women.

Especially in boxing.

That’s what we call a Megaman.

Well, Imane Khelif has won the gold medal. Forced one to throw the towel and 5-0 in all other fights.

She won gold. Good for her. Sad that people fell for russian propaganda, but the uneducated are easily fooled.

Unbelievable that you're sucking up MSM disinfo without even questioning it.

That Russian propaganda would be crushed the moment the IOC has the athletes tested and shows the world the xx test results mr smarty pants.

Why don't they?

BTW

Amazing that you haven't proven to me that you're a man. Curious 🤔
