Original Note:
The claim Algeria's Imane Khelif and Taiwan’s Lin Yu-Ting are "biological men" are unverified allegations. They are allowed to compete in women's boxing. Kellie Harrington did not make any statement that she would not fight Khelif or Yu-Ting if they made it to the finals. https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/boxing/2024/07/31/kellie-harrington-makes-history-as-first-irish-woman-to-win-medals-at-two-olympic-games/ https://www.rte.ie/news/primetime/2024/0731/1462837-explained-the-gender-controversy-miring-womens-olympic-boxing/
