• Former manager Nasser Yesfah told Nice-Matin that Khelif has left the sport, adding that she currently keeps only limited training sessions and sponsorship commitments.
• Khelif won women’s under-66 kg gold at Paris 2024 after the IOC confirmed her eligibility, then filed a complaint for aggravated cyberharassment following a wave of online attacks.
• Her planned move to the professional ranks stalled after just one bout in Singapore, with Yesfah saying she needed five fights to secure a contract but did not proceed because of controversies.
• In late May 2025 she underwent mandatory gender-related tests to enter the Box Cup in Eindhoven and was later excluded from the event without any test results being made public.
• A leaked chromosomal report from testing tied to the 2023 World Championships alleged an XY karyotype, a claim reported in the British press and disputed by the IOC.
