In what way is that a refutation of the medical report? Are you suggesting it's been made up? If that's true then any day now Khelif will sue and win easily. You can't go around faking medical reports.

An unverified report of an apparent medical report is not a medical report. As I've said, I'll wait for something official and credible.

The homepage of that Reduxx site - Fuck me! 

I can't believe anyone who wants to be taken seriously would cite this as a credible source.

Indeed. Desperate stuff relying on that as a source.

Oh dear oh dear. Seems he was a man all along like was said at the time and that source was in fact entirely accurate. I won't hold my breath for any sort of contrition though. Perish the thought. Shame in those who pushed for this which was a biological man beating up women. Horrible.

Err, the issue was that the Olympic people and the boxing people had a different approach. The other issue is that your obsession with this is pretty tragic.

The "issue" was some people claiming he wasn't a man when he was the entire time and that meaning he was allowed to legally beat up women. Thankfully that's now been resolved. Posting an update to this case is no more an obsession than anyone else who posts on relevant threads when new information comes out as its pertinent to the case, particularly when some posters went to great lengths to dismiss the veracity of the original sources calling him a man.

You still miss the point. None of us knew his/her sex, there was no credible information. By the olympic definition he/she was able to fight as a woman, and did. Whether the olympic people's approach to it was correct is another matter, but it doesn't alter that rightly or wrongly he/she was able to compete in the Olympics as a woman. 

And as others has said, your citing a spurious online rag as evidence is/was scraping the barrel. 

I'm sure you've actually read the words in the article you've posted, but if you have, you'll note that the issue of this person's sex is still unresolved anyway.
