International Boxing Association awarding Angela Carini $50,000

https://www.iba.sport/news/iba-is-to-award-angela-carini-of-italy-with-olympic-champion-prize-money/

Despite Angela quitting after 46 seconds and not being a metal winner the IBA is awarding her $50,000 _ $25,000 to her coach. Saying only eligible athletes should compete in the ring for safety concerns..... WHAT DO THEY KNOW THAT THEY CAN'T REVEAL?

There are different testing standards involved between the International Boxing standard and the Olympic standard. Her opponent was born female, passing the olympic test. But has an XY chromasome, failing the International Boxing test. I'm not taking a side here. I dont like Boxing as a sport at all.. But maybe the two committees need to settle it in the ring. 😷

@whowasthatmaskedman yes - different organizations and as the Olympics said they stand by their decision.
