USA Boxing to Allow Men to Hit Women Under Certain Conditions
[Breitbart] USA Boxing, the governing body that oversees amateur and Olympic boxing in the United States, has decided to let trans fighters hit female fighters under certain regulatory conditions beginning in 2024.

The organization’s “Transgender Policy” stipulates that all fighters under 18 compete according to their birth gender. However, transgender fighters over the age of 18 will be allowed to compete in the gender category of their choice as long as they follow certain regulations.

“They must meet certain criteria, including declaring their new gender identity, completing gender reassignment surgery, and regular hormone testing,” the Daily Mail reports.

“Both male and female transgender athletes must have undergone quarterly hormone testing and provided US Boxing with documentation of their hormone levels for a minimum of four years following surgery.”

Furthermore, fighters who transition from male to female “must demonstrate that their total testosterone level in serum has been below 5 nmol/L for at least 48 months prior to her first competition.

“Their total testosterone level in serum must remain below 5 nmol/L throughout the period of desired eligibility to compete in the female category.”

Without a trace of irony, USA Boxing said on Friday, “The purpose of this policy is to provide fairness and safety for all boxers.”

#2 Even having done surgery and hormones, the men women will still be stronger, denser bones and have greater lung capacity and endurance.

Natural born women are gonna get hurt.

#4 It'll take a Duk Koo Kim moment to stop this insanity; these guys running USA Boxing just made it a distinct possibility.

#5 Realistically, the stipulation is that the fighter has to be post-op. There are far fewer folks willing to undergo what Rush called a chopadickoffofme. This isn’t a “Lia” Thomas tuck swimsuit type situation. A post op dude is still liable to hurt or kill a woman in the ring, but I don’t expect to see more than a handful of trans boxers. The few that do go through the surgery will more likely be on the MMA track.
