The allegations that Olympic boxers Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting failed an eligibility test for women's competition have been made by only the International Boxing Association.
I’m not saying “they” to avoid specifying gender. I’m saying “they” because there are two boxers involved in this controversy.
The IBA said Khelif and fellow boxer Lin Yu-ting of Taiwan had failed “to meet the required necessary eligibility criteria and were found to have competitive advantages over other female competitors.”
The IBA has not disclosed the nature of the tests conducted on Khelif and Yu-Ting. The results therefore are not conclusive, nor are they reproducible.

Why do you keep quoting an organization that has been discredited by the very article youre commenting on?
It seems like you want to appeal to an authority that has none. Quoting liars as a source of truth doesn’t give the lies any weight.
The IBF, headed by russion dude, came up with this undiaclosed “test” three days after the algerian boxer beat an undefeated russian boxer.
The IBF was so openly corrupt, that the IOC kicked them and 20+ national boxing feds left IBF and created a new organization.
