The Olympics boxing saga has taken a shock twist with beaten Italian Angela Carini set to be awarded a monetary bonus by the International Boxing Association . Carini abandoned her fight with Algerian rival Imane Khelif after just 46 seconds, citing pain in her nose following a flurry of punches, but initial comments about protecting her life spread widely amid misinformation surrounding Khelif’s gender.
“I am not indifferent to such situations, and I can assure that we will protect each boxer. I do not understand why they kill women’s boxing. Only eligible athletes should compete in the ring for the sake of safety.” Carini will receive the equivalent of what the gold medallist will get, which will be US$100,000 . Of that prize, the athlete will get US$50,000 with the rest divided evenly between the coach and the national federation.
