The 2024 Summer Olympics are nearly over, and the boxing finals are here. Algerian boxer Imane Khelif has been dominating both in the ring and in headlines, and today she’s set to face China’s Yang Liu in the 66kg gold medal match. Liu and Khelif were supposed to collide at the 2023 World Championships, but Khelif was disqualified for “failing an unspecified gender eligibility test,” just minutes before the match. That decision by the IBA laid the groundwork for the boxing gender controversy surrounding Khelif’s Olympics journey this summer, and sets this gold medal match up as a rematch of the 2023 World Championships match that was never fought. While Liu has the 2023 World Championships gold medal, Khelif hasn’t had a single point scored against her so far in the Games, making this match a can’t-miss event.
Here’s how to follow all the action in the ring when Imane Khelif and Yang Liu face off for the gold medal match this afternoon.
