A female who formerly competed in professional boxing has come out against the sport's governing bodies allowing biological males to compete against women‚ according to Fox News Digital.Cary Williams claimed that allowing biological males to compete against women could result in serious injuries and certain opportunities could be taken away from female boxers."When I heard that they were allowing transgender people to box women‚ I could not believe it‚" Williams said. "I know it's been going on in a lot of sports‚ which is not right on any level. But when you're talking about people punching each other in the face‚ in the body‚ in the head‚ I really was surprised."USA Boxing was slammed for its recent transgender policy‚ which allows biological males to fight women so long as they adhere to certain parameters involving levels of testosterone and completion of gender surgery.The parameters are as follows:The athlete has declared that her gender identity is female and has completed gender reassignment surgery.The athlete for a minimum of four years after surgery has had quarterly hormone testing and presents USA Boxing documentation of hormone levels.The athlete must demonstrate that her total testosterone level in serum has been below 5 nmol/L for at least 48 months prior to her first competition (with the requirement for any longer period to be based on a confidential case-by-case evaluation‚ considering whether or not 48 months is a sufficient length of time to minimize any advantage in women's competition).The athlete's total testosterone level in serum must remain below 5 nmol/L throughout the period of desired eligibility to compete in the female category.Compliance with these conditions will be monitored by testing at the expense of the athlete. In the event of non-compliance‚ the athlete's eligibility for female competition will be suspended for 12 months. Re-testing for testosterone levels will then be required.Williams has expressed fears that women could be seriously injured if the new rule is allowed to continue. She shared a story from when she was 30 years old and preparing for a competition. She sparred with a 16-year-old boy and immediately discovered the differences between men and women in the ring."I was preparing for a fight‚ and‚ at the time‚ there were a lot of teenage boys on the boxing team at the gym. So‚ I sparred with a lot of teenage boys‚ and there weren't as many women boxing in the sport around that time. So‚ I was sparring with a 16-year-old boy‚ and you know they all still went light on me‚" Williams explained. "Even though they were boys‚ they still went light on me‚ and he just threw‚ he flicked in a body shot and fractured one of my ribs. It was hairline but hurt like hell‚ and he didn't mean to do it. I just thought‚ wow‚ like the power behind a teenage boy.""I couldn't imagine‚ you know‚ being hit by a grown man. So‚ yeah‚ that experience‚ it takes me to this whole other level of thought‚ you know‚ thinking if they're really going to allow men to go in there and box with women. That is just deadly."Williams went on to say that she never thought sports would be allowing men to compete against women‚ adding that "[w]e're living in crazy times right now.""There's just no way that a man should be able to come into a boxing ring and box with a woman‚" Williams said. "No matter what‚ if they're born a man‚ then they're a man. Doesn't matter if they have gone through transition.""I think most of the people that I have communicated with feel the same way. But a lot are worried to speak out. You know‚ we live in a weird cancel culture‚ and so I think a lot of people don't want to voice their opinions on it‚ which is really sad because we need more people to stand up on this."

Rapper 50 Cent and comedian Micahel Rappaport blasted Democrats over the migrant crisis in New York City‚ and suggested that former President Donald Trump could be the answer. As Blaze News reported on Saturday‚ New York City will soon start handing out pre-paid credit cards to illegal immigrants. The $53 million pilot program will provide pre-paid credit cards to illegal aliens housed in New York City hotels‚ and migrant families could receive nearly $1‚000 a month.Curtis James Jackson III‚ better known as 50 Cent‚ blasted New York City Mayor Eric Adams over the program. In a since-deleted Instagram post‚ 50 Cent shared a screen capture of the New York Post article regarding the $53 million program for illegal immigrants with the caption: "WTF Mayor Adams call my phone‚ I don’t understand how this works. Somebody explain."The "In Da Club" rapper also said that MSNBC host Ari Melber "can’t explain this" to him‚ and admitted that he is "stuck" on the situation. 50 Cent then stated‚ "Maybe Trump is the answer."In October 2020‚ right before the presidential election‚ 50 Cent endorsed Trump after learning how much Joe Biden wanted to increase taxes. However‚ Jackson rescinded his endorsement just days later by saying‚ "F*** Donald Trump‚" after being publicly berated by his celebrity ex-girlfriend Chelsea Handler.Another celebrity ticked off at Democrats for the migrant crisis in New York City is Michael Rappaport – a notorious Trump hater. Rappaport shared a video rant reacting to the mob of illegal immigrants beating up two NYPD officers last weekend and them being released without bail. One of the suspects flashed two middle fingers after being arraigned in court. Rappaport blustered‚ "This is why when I say voting for pig d*** Donald Trump is on the table‚ voting for pig d*** Donald Trump is on the table!""The other day in New York City‚ six illegal aliens jumped a New York City cop – NYPD’s finest‚" Rappaport said on the X social media platform "They jumped a New York City cop in Times Square and were arrested and released without bail."The Hollywood actor asked‚ "Let me tell you something‚ what the f*** is the world coming to if you could be from another country‚ beat up a cop in New York City‚ and walk out with no f***ing bail? What the f*** is the world coming to? What the f*** is the world coming to?"Rappaport then bashed President Joe Biden for ignoring police officers being attacked and focusing on four Israeli settlers violently targeting Palestinians in the disputed West Bank territory.Rappaport ripped "cadaver Joe Biden" for issuing an executive order regarding the Israeli settlers on the same day as the attack on NYPD officers."You’re talking about that‚ but you’ve got nothing to say about motherf***ers beating up cops in New York City? The greatest city on earth. Maybe my city is not the greatest city on earth anymore if you could beat up cops in the quote-unquote greatest city in the world and be released without bail. Are we the greatest city on earth?"Rappaport declared‚ "Cadaver Joe Biden‚ we see you! We f***ing see you!"While slamming his hands on a table‚ he concluded‚ "This is why voting for pig d*** Donald Trump is still on the table."(WARNING: Explicit language) — (@) Like Blaze News?

Rich Lowry: 'Democrats Are Taking an Insane Risk With Joe Biden'

There's a criticism I sometimes see from smart alecks online‚ concerning Limited Run Games. See these people get it in their heads that a company dedicated to the history of games‚ doing the good work that needs to be done to preserve art‚ should be raked over the coals just because their shipping is fairly slow; you may end up getting your order months after you expected and could have just saved time buying digital.
