Angela Carini (born 6 October 1998) is an Italian amateur boxer.

Career

[edit]

Carini won a medal at the 2019 AIBA Women's World Boxing Championships.[2]

She competed in the women's welterweight division at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo and was defeated in the round of 16 by Chen Nien-chin.[3]

2024 Summer Olympics

[edit]

Carini competed in the women's 66 kg division at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.[4]

On 1 August, she faced Imane Khelif in a bout that sparked intense debate within the boxing community. During the match, Carini, after receiving a punch in the face, signaled for her headgear to be checked and eventually withdrew from the fight after 46 seconds.[4] Carini's reaction to abandoning the boxing match spawned scrutiny.[5][6]

Carini's coach later commented on concerns regarding her safety, highlighting the controversy surrounding the International Olympic Committee (IOC)'s decision to allow Khelif to compete. The IOC, however, defended their decision to allow both boxers to compete, criticizing the International Boxing Association (IBA)'s actions as "sudden and arbitrary".[7]

Carini later apologised to Khelif, stating: "I want to apologize to her and everyone else. I was angry because my Olympics had gone up in smoke. I don't have anything against Khelif. If I were to meet her again, I would embrace her."[8][9] The day after the fight, the IBA decided to offer Carini a sum of $100,000, the same amount of prize money typically reserved for the Olympic champion.[10][11] The offer, however, was not accepted,[12] especially by the Italian Boxing Federation [it].[13]

Personal life

[edit]

The daughter of police officers, Carini also serves as an officer in the Polizia di Stato and is an athlete in their sporting division, Fiamme Oro.[14]
