As far as I understand this is not the same as trans, it's different. There is a reason why men and women have different category in sports, and if you let them compete with each other there is no chance for women to win anything at all. I am not saying they should not be a part of sport but it sholdn't be in the women's category because it gives them edge which is unfair for the opponents.

You even use the pronoun he instead of she then how can you think it's okay to let them be in the women's category.

If you think it's okay then why are there different events for different weight categories, just let all into one and the ultimate one will win. Isn't it?

In Men's Basketball, France's beating Canada was a really big surprise to me. France were of course the 3rd most favoured team by bookmakers but Canada were looking much better. I thought Canada would win with their NBA stars. They couldn't even make big difficulties. Now France - Germany matchup looks more interesting. I don't have much to say about USA - Serbia as the result looks obvious already. 

Maybe we can watch another USA - France finale for the gold medal. But I don't expect USA to hand it over to anyone with such a dominant roster.

Referring to your words, it seems that you are questioning the disqualification carried out by the IBA in 2023, come on, friend, please think more realistically at this time, if you look at Imane Khelif career journey, in fact she has been under the auspices of the IBA for a long time and she can continue to take part in competitions boxing so far without problems until in 2023 he was declared to have male chromosomes only through a blood test without checking his genitals and that was admitted by the IBA in press conference when opposing the IOC decision, when you said he was disqualified a few months ago was that purely as a rule?
She was disqualified by the IBA after defeating Azalia Amineva, an undefeated Russian boxer and the IBA at that time was led by a Russian(Umar Kremlev) doesn't that look like a conspiracy going on?

I don't know why you all keep saying he is transgender just because he has a genetic disorder, even though his father shown proof of his birth documents to the public and the IOC some time ago, btw if you don't know, Algeria is a conservative country where changing gender is a very prohibited by family, society and the state, so then what is the percent chance that he can change his status from male to female when he has a conservative family and lives in poverty?

When you keep saying she's a mutant (not 100% female) then would it really be fair if she fought men today or maybe those with genetic disorders like imane khelif should end her current career and ban mutants from excelling in sports, because like I said In his previous post, only a few people are born like him, so it is difficult to create sports competitions between those who have this disorder, like the current Paralympics.

This is the biodata of Imane Khelif, he has lost 9 times in his career and only won 4 knockouts and his opponents were all women so that means he can still be beaten by women.

Sorry if my post is too long to try to explain the existing controversy

Like something out of a strange horror film, the two finalists for the women’s boxing event in the Olympics are both men. I guess this could be viewed as some sort of victory if you’re a mentally ill woke lunatic. I imagine for the rest of us this freak show just needs to come to an end. Also, how on earth did I not bet on these fights?

Men discuss throw final left strange feeling, despite that my country got silver. Our Mykolas Alekna with 2nd attempt beat Olympic Record by his father. But then Roja Stona from Jamaica appears out of nowhere, throwing exactly 70.00 and beating Olympic record again by just 3cm. His 2nd best attempt was just 66.16, why Alekna didn't went below 68:49.
What a crazy comeback by Poland volleyball team against USA. In 4th set it already looked that lost game already, but then they made amazing comeback and reached final. In other semi France won against Italy very comfortable, what is unexpected.
What
Such great handball 1/4 finals, 2 extra times, another very close game between Denmark and Sweden were Denmark won by 1 goal and now underdog Slovenia leading against Norway.
Biggest upset is Germany win against favorites France. Especially way how it happened, France were leading with few seconds remaining lost ball and let Germany to score, you have to see it yourself

The truth is that I found it impressive how Brazil played, for me it was one of the greatest things I have seen, I saw Spain very unfocused and that was something that made me think that sometimes the mentality of people can change at a moment when it shouldn't, but even so I liked the game, but I really liked how they played it, it was great.

On the other hand, I don't know if you saw the semi-final between Poland and USA, super exciting and in the end Poland won in a very heartfelt way, they finished 13-15. Congratulations to the Poles.

The Nigerian team has performed well in this competition beating Australia and Canada. But the US team is the favorite to win this game because they have better players and an experienced coach. Ezinne Kalu will be the key player for D'Tigeress due her wonderful performance so far in this Olympics. With a mixture of luck and hard work, the underdogs can carry the day.

For now, that's the standard. Maybe the International Olympic Committee (IOC) will have to deliberate on these laws and make some adjustments. Competition should be fair, and no contestant should have an advantage.

I saw this on the official website as well but do you have the website where I can check the remaining event for both USA and China athletes ?

Even if USA is leading for now but if there are alot more china's athletes compared to USA as well as the remaining events then I guess China still has a chance to catch up with the gold medal tally. I cant seems to find an up to date website on this statistics though

This is exactly what I suggested earlier. A separate category would end these controversies completely, but the IOC just don't waste their time and effort on such stuff. They are completely fine with the transgender parody of the last supper weirdly though.

Nothing surprising. USA has always dominated the Summer Olympics while Norway dominated the Winter Olympics and none of that is going to change anytime soon.

USA is getting the lead, will be hard for China to compete now.
This is the situation before the finals of this evening.

A very difficult match to predict
I'm still thinking about whether to bet or just watch and cheer for Brazil
Brazil's momentum is looking better, even more so with morale high after beating Spain and eliminating France as well, Brazil has grown during the competition

But Brazil has already lost to the United States in two Olympic finals, in 2004 and 2008
The United States are also unbeaten in this edition, so the odds seems fair enough

The gender confusion is getting out of control, it should be clear that anyone who has XX chromosome should be considered as female and XY should be male cause both are physically different so putting them in a same cage isn't fair.

I am not much of following these sports but this news is trending across social media and that's how I saw it, there are some conspiracy theories float as well this is to normalise such events in the future that is going to collapse the entire sports that exists.

In my opinion there should be another category where anyone can participate against anyone but not in men's or women's category.

Brazil dominated in this semi-final match and scored four goals. I was surprised by this performance of Brazil team as they did not let the World Champions Spain to have any chance in this match.

Now coming to the finals between the USA and Brazil, Although both the teams are the favourites to win the Gold medal match but i reckon that USA may have more chances and Emma Hayes, the new coach for the USA, seems very enthusiastic about their team's win. But if Brazil shows a similiar performance on the final day, then who knows? 

Even the bookies are confident on the United States win and you will get 1.51 odds at stake.com if you bet on the USA in this match before the game play.

This year's French Olympics seems to have a lot of quirks and quite eccentric news in every sport being competed.
Previously we could see the eccentric style of Turkish shooting athlete Yusuf Dikec who was indeed busy on social media with his cool style when shooting, there was also Imane Khelif who had indeed gone viral because of her controversial match because she did not pass the gender test and now she is in the final.

Yesterday there was another quite interesting and in my opinion this is quite eccentric where the French pole vaulter Anthony Ammirat who did fail to win the gold medal because his vital organs were stuck which actually made him offered as an adult film star today, He was even offered a deal paying more than $250k to do a live broadcast. D



French pole vaulter in viral video offered porn deal after medal fail

Today will be the last quarterfinal of the women's basketball tournament at the Olympics. In this match, the Nigerian national team will play against the USA. The U.S. team easily took first place in its group. American basketball players won games against Japan, Belgium and Germany. I have no doubt that the US team will make it to the semifinals - the difference in class between Nigeria and the US is too great.

Congratulations to the Brazil women football team for reaching the final of this summer Olympics games after humiliating their Spanish counterparts with a 4:2 scoreline. I watched the game and contrary to my initial thought about how tough the game will be for both sides, it was an easy game for Brazil. They'll meet the USA women in final which will also decide the team that'll win gold. As the most successful women's football teams, the two finalists I know will give football fans a great game to watch and I can't to see them showcase what they've got on Sunday.

Seriously sad to hear about Vinesh Phogat getting disqualified right before the final where she was set to acquire a gold or silver which she rightfully deserved after defeated opponents like Yui Susaki. Disqualification for just 100gm extra is messed up.

Exactly! Some fools think that it's okay for her to compete just because she was born a female. Silly reasoning.

Just when I thought I'd better not bet, since I've lost enough money on these Olympics, Brazil surprises me 

It's incredible how much the team has improved since the qualifying phase and without Marta, it's like a different team
Often a team needs time to get used to and get comfortable during a championship, and often the lack of a player who draws a lot of attention can be beneficial to the team, I believe that's what happened
But 4x2 against Spain was a very good game and even if the final is against the United States, Brazil will go into the final with a lot of respect and great motivation to finally win against US

The US team will meet Serbia in the semifinals, and I think the result of this meeting will be the same as it was during the showcase game. But at the same time, I have doubts about the outcome of the other semifinal. Personally, I expect France will be able to beat Germany, i.e. I expect to see France vs. USA in the final.

As a country, we cannot be proud enough of our volleyball girls.
It defeated the tournament's favorite, China, 3-2 after 5 sets and advanced to the semi-finals.
Melisa Vargas, the top scorer of the match, played with 42 points and had the biggest share in the victory.
The match was fiercely competitive and there was competition in every set until the last moment, and Turkey managed to win the final set 15-12 and advance to the semi-finals.
