When is Imane Khelif’s next fight at the Olympics? Opponent and start time

GENDER row boxer Imane Khelif continued her Olympics campaign with a quarter-final win, despite the controversy surrounding her participation in Paris.

Khelif beat Anna Luca Hamori by unanimous decision to progress to the semi-finals of the women’s welterweight.

Controversy around Khelif sparked after she triumphed against Italian Angela Carini, who quit their bout after 46 seconds, in the last 16.

The fight created global outrage over Khelif’s inclusion at the Games, having been disqualified from last year’s Women’s Boxing World Championships for failing to meet gender eligibility criteria.

The International Olympic Committee said she was disqualified after failing a testosterone level test.

Khelife lost in the quarter-final to eventual gold medal winner Kellie Harrington at the Tokyo Olympics three years ago, and has nine defeats on her record in total.

But she’ll be looking to go all the way this time, with the semi-finals up next.
