The Paris Olympics has introduced another new sport: Domestic abuse!
The sport that used to be called women's boxing will now include two men - from Algeria and Taiwan - approved by the IOC to fight women.
A spokesperson explained:
These men should be celebrated as role models for all men. After all, these boxing slags need a good slapping don't they?
Just because these guys look like men and test as men doesn't mean they are men. It's just an identity, right?
We could be in line for another version of the women's 800m podium in Rio (2016), except potentially with one woman alongside the men looking a bit worse for wear after a nasty beating.
You can't make this stuff up.
**Update 01 August 2024**
Sadly this fake news item turned out to be all too true when the Algerian male boxer broke the nose of an Italian female boxer in less than a minute in their Olympics 2024 bout.
The IOC should hang their heads in shame.
