Sanctioned boxing organization USA Boxing has announced a controversial change to their rulebooks that took effect to start 2024, allowing transgender men (biological males) to compete in the women’s division.
Before 2023 was expired, the organization provided an updated rulebook that reflected this change. The rulebook directs readers to an external document that defines the specifics of this rule change.
The rules do, however, contain some stipulations and caveats before transgender women can compete. Conversely, transgender women (biological females) can compete in the men’s weight classes under certain conditions.
This rule applies to those 18 and older, and have specific levels of testosterone.
The athlete has declared that her gender identity is female and has completed gender reassignment surgery.
The athlete for a minimum of four years after surgery has had quarterly hormone testing and presents USA Boxing documentation of hormone levels.
Some of the rules states. The same rules applies for biological women looking to compete in the men’s tournaments
Any transgender boxer who violates the policy will be suspended from competing for one year.
In a statement to the Daily Mail, the promotion explained that “the purpose of this policy is to provide fairness and safety for all boxers.”
Additionally, World Boxing Council (WBC) president Mauricio Sulaiman told The Telegraph that he is not happy with the ruling, as his organization has sought to create an unique division strictly for transgender athletes.
It is the time to do this, and we are doing this because of safety and inclusion. We have been the leaders in rules for women’s boxing — so the dangers of a man fighting a woman will never happen because of what we are going to put in place.
In boxing, a man fighting a woman must never be accepted regardless of gender change. There should be no gray area around this, and we want to go into it with transparency and the correct decisions. Woman to man or man to woman transgender change will never be allowed to fight a different gender by birth.
Popular female boxer and former IBF bantamweight world champion Ebanie “Blonde Bomber” Bridges blasted the move on social media:
Though not exactly boxing but still very much relatable, retired MMA legend and superstar Jorge Masvidal was asked during a podcast how many women it would take to defeat him. He then referenced Amanda Nunes, who he trained with on occasion, who is widely regarded as the greatest Women’s MMA fighter of all-time, said that he would tell “bottom of the barrel” men who fought in the UFC to take it easy on her.
Masvidal explained that there is a clear and distinct difference in the speed, power, explosiveness, and how much pain a man can take versus a woman. But to answer the original question, Masvidal jokingly said that it would take an “infinite” number of women who don’t know what they are doing to best him.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
I couldn’t help but think that this will be the result:
Jokes aside, this is just absolutely ridiculous. It’s bad enough that we got women beating each other up in combat sports, but now we’re going to allow men to bloody them up? Even with all the surgery and hormonal treatment, the man will still have a clear and distinct advantage due to the way men are naturally built.
For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.

We’ve seen these trans men enter women’s competition and they have destroyed them with relative ease. An average at best male sports competitor places first in women’s sports. In cases where trannies have been permitted to compete against women in wresting and MMA, it’s not even close…

And if this change is happening in boxing, then you can expect it to come to MMA on a more broader scale… UFC’s Dana White once infamously remarked that he would never allow women to compete in his organization. It wasn’t that much longer later he changed his mind, and now the organization has had 4 different divisions for women. More recently, White and the UFC have embraced Bud Light after that whole Dylan Mulvaney stunt. So, if he’s willing to do that, give it some more time and he’ll probably cozy-up to trannies, if the money is right.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

All I hear is Drago’s voice LOL if he dies…..he dies. So dramatic haha. These abominations just keep on keepin on.
An absolute abomination to allow this to happen, if “he” beat a girl in the street, he’d be in jail and rightly so.
We are going to get a lot more “Frida Wallberg” incidents. She is a retiered swedish boxer who got knocked out, got a cerebral haemorrhage and had surgery. She cant go back to boxing and have not recovered 100%.
This is not good. There will be perma damages now..
Sickening.
It’s a shame to see that 1 Timothy 5:14 (KJV true and only word of God.)
These gals have GOT to be totally insane to get in the ring with a man. The man may “act” like a girl and talk like a girl, but he still has muscles like a boy and I would be so ashamed of myself if I was a guy getting in the ring to beat up a woman that doesn’t have the strength that I have as a male and holding up a trophy that I don’t deserve as a man.
