Gold-medal boxer Imane Khelif is getting attacked by one of her former sparring partners.
Bulgarian-Nigerian women’s boxer Joana Nwamerue sparred with Khelif on several occasions and has bizarre theories on Khelif’s background after the Algerian boxer was in the middle of a gender controversy at the Olympics.
“[Khelif] has some kind of internal issues. But he is a man,” Nwamerue said, according to Reduxx. “I will stay [by] my words until he/she does a test to prove to the world that he/she is a woman. But we all know that won’t happen.”
