Original Note:
The IBA never declared that this boxer had XY chromosomes, or was male. In fact, they never disclosed the type of test that was taken, nor the results of it. https://www.iba.sport/news/statement-made-by-the-international-boxing-association-regarding-athletes-disqualifications-in-world-boxing-championships-2023/ The original source for the XY chromosomes claim comes from Russia Today, a site known for making up false stories. https://www.rt.com/news/573633-women-boxing-dna-test/
