Fitness guru Jillian Michaels talks to OutKick's Tomi Lahren on "Tomi Lahren is Fearless" about the Olympic boxing gender controversy.

"Let’s remove the transgender component of this because these two athletes are not transgender, they are saying that they are female. You’ve got two independent tests done by two labs that are separate from the International Boxing Association that found a Y chromosome. That’s male," Michaels told Lahren.

"So, now then, why did they not contest these findings? Twice! A simple cheek swab will solve the problem, will answer the question. They didn’t contest it, and in fact Imane started and withdrew the contest. … Now the Olympics is like ‘well the passport says female and they’ve been able to compete before.’ 

"So, how about this? How about you do a cheek swab? Really simple, and then you negate the entire conversation."
