Boban Marjanović plays basketball for the Houston Rockets. He is 7’ 4” tall- he has been diagnosed with Gigantism- a disorder of the pituitary gland that causes him to be unusually tall. Should he be banned from the NBA?

.


Andre the Giant was also diagnosed with Gigantism. Should he have been banned from wrestling?

Andre could drink 24 beers. For the apero hour.

Is this still going on?

Here's the thing.
If you are a right winger declaring there are only two biological sexes that means the Algerian boxer, who lost to an Irish boxer in the 2020 olympics, has to be female. If you believe there are only two sexes then she is female.

Khelif was born with a vagina, identifies as female, and has lived as a female her entire life.

She also meets all of the IOC’s eligibility criteria including having hormone levels within the IOC’s allowable range.

There are other athletes with this medical situation whose natural hormone levels are outside the IOC’s allowable range and they are not allowed to compete unless they take hormone-suppressing medication. This is the very thing that Caster Semenya is suing the IAAF over at the European Court of Human Rights.

Anyway, as I recall you guys were all about the vagina so not sure why you’re mad.

✌
And we'll remember this.

Reading comprehension isn’t their strong suit LOL. I guarantee that buddy’s never trained a day in his life and he’s coming on here acting like an expert on combat sports.
There is a very strong probability that you are correct. Outside of this internet forum I have spoken to people directly on this topic and were given similar answers that make no sense.... And guess what? These people have never stepped into a combat sports gym or sparred before.

I have trained with women before working on technique and vice-versa. But once you go into sparring mode, as a male I can feel the difference in physical strength. So you have to adjust to your opponent so you don't injure them. All that goes out the window once it is a ranked fight, the expectation for a rank fight is that you are both the same sex category (not gender).

You didn't even read the article you provided ... Let me share a quote from it:

' Chow, a 5ft 2ins former jockey, entered “The Battle of the Sexes” with a winless two-fight pro record, no known amateur background, a 5ins height disadvantage and, at 123lbs, conceded five pounds in weight. '.

I wonder what you were thinking?
Let's recap...
- he was a male boxer fighting a female boxer
- he was considered pro having had at least 2 prior pro fights
- she won
- you claimed a woman couldn't beat a man in the ring
- she did

I guess reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit because I said a trained boxer. Does Chow really sound like a trained boxer to you?

“Chow, a 5ft 2ins former jockey, entered “The Battle of the Sexes” with a winless two-fight pro record, no known amateur background, a 5ins height disadvantage and, at 123lbs, conceded five pounds in weight.

Looking back, McGregor says: “He was physically stronger than the average woman boxer… but I was not the average woman boxer. It seemed Chow did not have a lot of ring experience. It went really well. I felt on top of the world.”
Looks like you need some reading training...he had two pro fights before that.

We're not talking about the experience & capability of the fighters. You can stop moving goal posts now.

Tell me you’ve never stepped into a gym or ring in your life without telling me you’ve never stepped into a gym/ring 😂
Says the guy who didn't read that Chow had two previous pro fights...which makes him a pro fighter.

Looks like you may have been hit in the head too many times if you ever stepped into the ring at all.

Says the keyboard warrior who can't read coming to the rescue of his girlfriend on a message board.

btw Chow had 2 previous pro fights. That makes him a pro fighter. I guess you missed that part. Too many heads shots in your day?

He lost 2 “pro” fights in 1996 to two guys who were a combined 0-5 and Chow had no amateur boxing history. I clearly said “trained male” vs “trained female.” With every organization sanctioning “pro” fights even Jake fucking Paul’s are “professional” fights.

I at least give Chow his props for having the heart to step into a ring. I know a nerd like you would never have the heart to and would quit just like Carini.

We're not comparing the quality and experience of the fighters. We're comparing man vs woman boxers.
The OP said it never happened. It did.
Try and keep up rather than changing the parameters of the argument.

Its egregious. And a mockery to sport. I haven't watched any Olympic coverage for this reason as well as the anti-Christian opening ceremonies.

It's not a plot twist and it's consistent with our position.

In this case, it's a woman deciding to fight men knowing she's going to get her ass beat because everyone knows women cannot fight men and win.

In the other case, it's female athletes being forced to compete against a man or intersex individual to win medals in a woman's competition.

Nobody has a problem with women trying to play in the NBA if they want to compete with men. If a woman is good enough to play with Lebron James, go ahead. In fact, women are allowed to play in the NBA... but not a single female basketball player in history has been competitive against top tier high school male players let alone good enough to qualify for college or the NBA.

But we'd have a problem with Lebron James crashing the WNBA... because he's going to dominate and the female competitors would be forced to compete against a man in a woman's league.

What this issue has brought to light is how many people struggle with basic logic and are in positions of power allowing insanity like this to occur.
