"Female" boxers

So, there were at least 100 "Female" boxers at the 2024 Olympics in 6 weight classes. Of these, two were XY males who had been banned by the International Boxing Association but were permitted to fight in the Olympics because they were determined to have no biological advantage. Of course the puff piece below doesn't discuss that the two males had male chromosomes and there was no evidence of a physical advantage except for the fact that they looked like men. Now, if there wasn't a physical advantage, the odds of one of the males winning a gold in a weight class would have been been one out of 16.7 (assuming 100/6). The odds of both males winning gold would have been far higher. And yet both males won gold medals.
