Piers Morgan, Megyn Kelly, J.K. Rowling and more reacted to a new report that claimed to show proof confirming that Algerian Olympic boxer Imane Khelif — who took the gold in the women’s competition in Paris — is a biological male with a sex development condition.
French journalist Djaffar Air Aoudia, who allegedly obtained a medical report, said that an MRI determined “Khelif had no uterus, but instead had internal testicles and a ‘micropenis’ resembling an enlarged clitoris,” Reduxx reported. The fighter also reportedly has XY chromosomes and testosterone levels typical of males.
“Confirmation of what some of us said at the time: Khelif is a biological man,” Morgan wrote on X. “The gold medal should now be stripped and awarded to the best actual woman.”

The host of Sirius XM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show” podcast wrote on X, “As we told you – that Olympic gold medal winner is MALE.”
Famed “Harry Potter” author J.K. Rowling also wrote on X in response to the article, “Every gender activist in my mentions: ‘But Vogue,'” a reference to Vogue article’s claiming that Khelif was a woman.
Tennis legend Martina Navratilova reacted to the report and wrote that it showed “what we have been saying for months. And for calling his person a man or at least a male, we got called all kinds of names and most of all the women this male took medals and wins from. Just awful.”
Former collegiate swimmer and vocal advocate for women’s sports Riley Gaines said, “Remember the man who won an Olympic gold medal in women’s boxing? His medical reports show he has XY chromosomes, male testosterone levels, testicles, & a micropenis. But that never mattered—they believe that words & feelings make you woman, not biology.”
OutKick’s Clay Travis added, “Remember the male Olympic boxer who won a women’s gold medal after beating the crap out of all the women? Well @ReduxxMag has the medical reports that prove he’s a man. And just published them.”
Former top of Levi executive — and now founder of a pro-women sport’s apparel brand — Jennifer Sey wrote, “Imane is biologically male & has male advantage, however he identifies. “I don’t care what he calls himself, I only care that he is not permitted to compete in women’s boxing. He won a gold medal at the Olympics in an unfair fight. He needs to be stripped of it.”
Khelif previously failed gender eligibility tests administered by the IBA, but was allowed by the IOC (International Olympic Committee) to compete against biological women in the 2024 Paris Olympics, since the Olympics’ gender eligibility standard for boxing is based merely on a fighter’s passport.
Opponents of Khelif and advocates for girls and women’s spaces in sports spoke out about the gender controversy, but the legacy news media maintained that Khelif was female and categorized any dissent as “false gender claims,” as previously reported.
