USA Boxing, the federation that governs amateur boxing in the United States, has allowed youths to participate in women's boxing as long as boys define their gender identity as female.
USA Boxing has introduced a “transgender athlete policy” that requires genital reassignment surgery and strict hormone testing before competition, making it one of the strictest policies for transgender athletes, according to NBC News.
Men's Women's Boxing
Translated from the language of political correctness to ordinary language, this means that young men will be able to fight women in the ring.
The amateur boxing organization requires that fighters who identify as “trans women” undergo surgery and have their testosterone levels measured because it has established limits. If the hormone level is low enough, they will be able to stand between the ropes with women.
One of the top female boxers, Michaela Mayer, noted that “hormone therapy is prohibited (in boxing).” “Accordingly, this should make it impossible for trans athletes to participate. No matter how one feels about it, the fact is that it is illegal and completely eliminates equality in competition,” he said.
