À propos de ce contenu audio

“It hurt like hell,” said Italy’s Angela Carini to her cornermen. Her welterweight contest against Algeria’s Imane Khelif lasted just forty-six seconds. The pugilists were squaring off in the preliminary rounds of the Olympic boxing competition in Paris. After absorbing a few solid right hands and fearing her nose was broken, the Italian retreated to her corner, and the referee waved off the contest. “I am heartbroken,” said Carini after the fight. “I went to the ring to honor my father. I was told I was a warrior, but I preferred to stop for my health. I have never felt a punch like this.” The official ruling of abandonment (ABD) progressed Khelif to the next round, and she went on to win the gold medal. Carini later apologized for her comments.
