Original Note:
The IBA never officially disclosed what caused the disqualification, let alone that these boxers have XY chromosomes. Any statement trying to prove it was one specific thing, is purely speculation. In the IBA's official statement, both boxers were referred to as females. https://www.iba.sport/news/statement-made-by-the-international-boxing-association-regarding-athletes-disqualifications-in-world-boxing-championships-2023/
