"This is despicable and unacceptable" - Dillon Danis goes off on Imane Khelif while reacting to clip of Angela Carini breaking down in tears

Dillon Danis joined the masses in bashing Imane Khelif for the Algerian's controversial boxing match against Angela Carini at the Paris Olympics.

Earlier today, the women's boxing 66kg round of 16 took place in Paris, France. One of the matchups featured Khelif and Italy's Carini battling for a spot in the quarterfinals.

Less than a minute into the match, Carini was hit with a clean punch and decided she didn't want to continue fighting. The result quickly became a massive talking point because of Khelif's history.

Last year, Khelif was disqualified from the Women's World Boxing Championships by the International Boxing Association (IBA) due to a failed gender test.

The Algerian boxer was quickly labeled a transgender after defeating Carini, despite being born a female. Several people now believe the 25-year-old Khelif has a massive advantage in combat sports.

Former Bellator MMA fighter Danis reacted to Carini breaking down in tears following her loss by posting the video on X and adding the following caption:

"Trained her whole life to make it all the way to the OLYMPICS.. just to get cheated. Not only cheated. Abused and embarrassed on top of it. This is despicable and unacceptable."

Check out Dillon Danis' post below:

Khelif isn't the only boxer facing scrutiny at the Games. Lin Yu-ting of Chinese Taipei is also fighting in Paris, after being disqualified from the 2023 Women's Boxing World Championships.

It should be noted that Khelif also represented Algeria in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan, where there was no controversy about her gender.

When did Dillon Danis last fight?

Dillon Danis was once a highly touted jiu-jitsu practitioner who became well known for being one of Conor McGregor's coaches. Danis previously held a 2-0 professional MMA record, both first-round submissions, under the Bellator banner before focusing on becoming a social media personality.

In October 2023, Danis returned to combat sports in an exhibition boxing match against Logan Paul. Things didn't go Danis' way, as Paul overpowered him before 'El Jefe' sparked a brawl by attempting to secure a takedown, leading to him being disqualified.
