Former boxing champion
spoke out against transgender participation in women’s sports in a recent interview, echoing some of what women's pro boxer Ebanie Bridges said last month about the issue.on Monday that he thinks it’s"ridiculous" and"disgraceful" to have a transgender woman participate in combat sports. "And it should never happen on anybody’s watch," Froch said."It’s a man, basically, beating up a woman. Don’t care if they’ve transgendered into a woman, and they now think they’re a woman, and they’re taking drugs to lower their testosterone intake. They’re stronger, they’re more powerful. Not all of them, you get some masculine women, that’s fine. You get some feminine men, that’s fine."But we’re talking about trans women.
