Yeah, and Bob Beamons record stood for over 20 years before that. Crazy that it's been only increased by 5cm in over 50 years.

Jonathan Edwards still stands for the triple too … that from 94/95 IIRC

I realise you are supporting the other team in that one, and I agree they concentrated too much on each other, but Josh Kerr did break the UK national record!

I haven't followed it closely but I think recently someone got really close to that triple jump record. I remember watching Edwards when he broke those records, Was massive news back in the day

That boxing decision was a total disgrace, the judges are corrupt as fook

Mark Falco
And broke everyone else
But the American came for nowhere and an Olympic record too
What fight was that?
I think the mixed events are pretty cool personally, nice to see some slightly different events and tactics.
The guy that won has a ridiculous sprint finish, looked like a 100m runner in the last bit.

Yep
And he and 2 goes to make the run
Most corrupt sport going, it's been a joke at the olympics for years now.

Yep. Absolutely ridiculous. I thought the pros were corrupt but Olympic boxing takes it to another level

What made Edwards really special was that it looked so effortless and easy!

What I don't get is the part where that isn't true. Or at the very least isn't a statement supported by a strong scientific consensus.
If she is intersex and has xy chromosomes that doesn't mean that biologically she's a man. That means that biologically she's intersex and that there's not really a clear standard for saying that biologically she's a man.
As an example people who are intersex may have some cells with XY chromosomes, some that do not.
Essentially my opinion:
Intersex: What Is Intersex, Gender Identity, Intersex Surgery
Being intersex means having anatomy that doesn’t fit into a male/female sex binary. Most intersex people are healthy and surgery isn’t necessary.

You may call that an unscientific opinion all you want, but a lot of actual scientists, actual biologists, would agree with that.
That's of course ignoring that we have one disreputable source for the claim that she even has XY chromosomes.
I'm not looking to find offense wherever I can. I think I said in my first post that I wasn't looking to have a go and that this is a topic a lot of people don't have a lot of knowledge on.
