 Donald Trump insists on calling women's Olympic gold medal boxer Imane Khelif a MAN


Donald Trump insisted on calling women's Olympic gold medal boxer Imane Khelif a man during an interview with WWE legend The Undertaker.

Khelif, who won gold in the women's welterweight category at the Paris Olympics this summer, was allowed to compete at the Games despite being banned from the 2023 World Boxing Championships for allegedly failing gender eligibility tests.

Although the 25-year-old Algerian was born female and has had her father show her birth certificate as proof of her gender as a woman, her success sparked fierce controversy and backlash both during and after the Olympic Games.


Trump, who appeared on the The Undertaker's eagerly-anticipated podcast 'Six Feet Under' on Monday, continually referred to Khelif as a 'man' after the wrestling star urged that 'protecting' women's sports from transgender athletes was a huge priority for him during the upcoming United States presidential election.

The Undertaker, whose real name is Mark Calaway, brought his daughter on to the podcast in an effort to show how young women are being affected by the heavily-debated issue.


I think it's very demeaning to women,' Trump said before pointing to The Undertaker's daughter. 'She wants to play sports and she wants to play against women. You don't necessarily want to play against men. It's okay but you don't want to do it.

'Did you see that boxing match at the Olympics? Did you see that beautiful Italian girl? She's supposed to be a good boxer. She took just a left jab. The guy goes (Trump throws a punch) boom. Like a defensive punch.

'I never saw something quite like that. She doesn't go down, she walked back to her corner and said, "I just got hit harder than I've ever been hit before". Her corner pushes her back out, "You can do it, you can do it". He goes with another left jab and she walks off, "There's no way I can win".'

Trump continued to double down on the inaccurate claim by detailing how 'two people who transitioned into women' fought in the female category at the Olympics, which was described by The Undertaker as 'shocking' and 'ridiculous'.

The pair then joked at the prospect of The Undertaker transitioning and wrestling as a woman.
