A row has erupted at the boxing at the Olympics over the eligibility of two female boxers.

Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting were both disqualified from last year’s World Boxing Championships by the International Boxing Association after questions were raised about their gender, however they have both been allowed compete at the Olympics.

Italy’s Angela Carini quit 46 seconds into her bout with Khelif yesterday leaving the ring in tears and refusing to shake her opponent’s hand. Gavin Cooney - Sports Writer with The 42 is in Paris brought us the details.
