Khelif has been in the midst of a gender eligibility controversy following a disqualification from the 2023 Women’s World Championships, sanctioned by the International Boxing Association.

International Olympic Committee president Thomas Bach defended having Khelif and Taiwanese boxer Lin Yu-Ting in the women’s division bouts.

"What is going on in this context in the social media with all this hate speech, with this aggression and abuse, and fueled by this agenda, is totally unacceptable," Bach said.

The Algerian Olympic Committee said it had filed an official complaint with the IOC to protest the online harassment against Khelif that amounted to a "a serious violation of sports ethics and the Olympic Charter by one of the participants in the boxing tournament."

The organization said that another boxer, who was not identified, posted disparaging comments on Khelif and warned that the IOC "has issued a final warning to delete every post that concerns our heroine."

"We reserve the right to prosecute everyone who participated in the heinous campaign against our heroine Imane Khelif," the Algerian team said.

Hamori vowed to be ready going into the fight despite the controversy surrounding Khelif and protests from her own federation.

"I’m not scared," Hamori said Thursday. "I don’t care about the press story and social media."
