August 22, 2025

Algerian boxer and Olympic champion Imane Khelif denied claims made by her former manager that she was putting her career on hold.

Khelif was at the center of a gender row at the Paris Games where she won gold in the women’s 66kg category.

“I would like to make it clear to the public that the reports of my retirement from boxing are false,” the 26-year-old Khelif wrote on her Facebook page.
