46-Second Fight Ended with Italian Boxer Conceding
During the 2024 Paris Olympics, the fight between Angela Carini and Algerian Imane Khelif lasted mere seconds. Carini, a member of Team Italy, conceded just 46 seconds into the matchup against Khelif, who had been barred from a women's boxing competition in 2023.
The brief fight ended after Khelif delivered two punches to Carini. The Italian boxer withdrew, giving Khelif the victory in the Round of 16 bout.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has yet to comment on the incident or provide any further details regarding the outcome of the fight.
