“Angela Carini was unfortunately influenced by many rumours. But she could have done it,” Tommasone tells Open. “Yes, I fought against Imane. As you can see, the punches were heavy and her strength was different. I am graduating in nursing and I know well that there are characteristics, even chromosomal ones, in Khelif’s exams that are identical to those of men. I don’t know, but I can assure you that she didn’t scare me then. I fought until the end and if I had to fight her again, I would do it immediately with my eyes naked. I have two legs and she has two. I have two arms and she has two. I am not afraid, and I am truly convinced, in fact I am certain that even my friend Angela could have done it”.

Tommasone is also a model and influencer on TikTok as a hobbyand she also paraded and competed for Miss Italy in Campania a few months after exchanging punches with Imane and did not seem to have suffered at all. She is the living proof that in that ring you could resist, even if it would have been difficult to prevail.
