Original Note:
This claim is completely unfounded and is from a blog post. This story originated from https://sports.amazingtoday.net, a "Sports News Blog" that provided no evidence to support it. For the "$25 million prize," there's no evidence Imane ever received – much less lost – an award of that amount. https://web.archive.org/web/20240927200950/https:/sports.amazingtoday.net/imane-khelif-gets-life-ban-after-wbo-declares-him-a-man-loses-all-medals-and-m-prize-decision-has-been-made-likhoa/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2024/09/30/imane-khelif-banned-stripped-medals-fact-check/75450290007/ https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2024/sep/30/facebook-posts/no-imane-khelif-has-not-been-banned-from-boxing-fo/ https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2024/09/fact-check-world-boxing-organization-did-not-declare-imane-khelif-a-man.html
