Italy's Angela Carini Breaks Down After Defeat to Imane Khelif.

Italian boxer Angela Carini withdrew from her bout just 46 seconds in after being matched against Algeria's Imane Khelif at the Paris Olympics. The sudden decision came amid intense emotions and controversy surrounding the match.

Imane Khelif has been in the spotlight due to a gender eligibility controversy from a tournament last year. Despite the drama, Khelif advanced to the welterweight quarter-finals, making headlines with both her performance and the surrounding issues.

Midway through the match, Carini chose to stop fighting due to severe pain in her nose. Khelif was declared the winner, and Carini was seen breaking down in front of the audience.
