Original Note:
This policy is not “awful for women”, which is an outrageous, baseless claim. The test is a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test, otherwise known as a “cheek swab” which will have zero impact on female athletes. It will, however, stop males punching women for “sport”. https://worldboxing.org/world-boxing-to-introduce-mandatory-sex-testing-for-all-boxers/
