“The Young Turks” host Cenk Uygur shocked British journalist Piers Morgan and his panel on Tuesday after saying he would support his daughter competing against biological men in transgender-identifying sports.

Imane Khelif failing an unspecified gender test that showed Khelif has male chromosomes. Khelif received important reaction last week after competing against Italian Olympic boxer Angela Carini, who finished the match after 46 seconds, later showing just how hard Khelif's punches were.
While Morgan and other commentators disagreed with Khelif competing in women's sports unless evidence proved the boxer was female, Uygur argued in defense that Kheelif was a biological female before adding that he would allow her his 12-year-old daughter competes against the biological one. boys
“You're so obsessed with this trans thing. You mentioned you have a 12-year-old girl; I have a 12-year-old girl. I don't care if she competes against trans girls in middle and high school. What are you going to do? Check all these kids' genitalia ? What are you crazy?” said Uighur.
“Really?” Morgan replied before adding, “I care!”
In addition to Morgan's shock, the panel appeared shocked by Uygur's statement as the two continued to argue.
“Now at the professional level, that's a different story,” Uygur said. “Alright, go check the genitalia of all the kids, you idiots. You're total idiots.”
“I can't believe it. So you'd be very happy with your daughter being beaten by biological males? Completely crazy! By the way, there's a whole reason we separate the sexes in the Olympics,” Morgan said. “Do you know what it is? If we didn't do it, women wouldn't win anything!”
