Footage of a transgender boxer – who has been allowed to compete in the Olympics – landing brutal shots on a female opponent has emerged on social media.
Two boxers who were banned from the world championships for being deemed biologically male have been cleared to compete at the Olympics as women.
A row has erupted in Paris after it emerged that Imane Khelif, of Algeria, and Lin Yu-Ting, of Taiwan, were thrown out of the tournament last year amid questions over their biological sex.
