World Boxing has introduced mandatory gender testing for all athletes wishing to compete in its events to ensure safety and fair competition. The decision comes two weeks before the World Boxing Championships in Liverpool. The controversy over gender eligibility has been intensely discussed in the wake of the Paris Olympics, where athletes such as Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting competed with IOC permission. World Boxing, officially recognized by the IOC, will organize boxing competitions at the 2028 Olympics.
