NFL legend Brett Favre has joined the chorus of those opposing transgender weightlifter Laurel Hubbard taking part in the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo.Earlier this week, the New Zealander became the first ever transgender athlete selected to compete at the Olympics after being included in New Zealand's weightlifting team for the upcoming Tokyo Games.
Hubbard, who came out as transgender in 2013, had previously competed in the men's events.Her selection has proved controversial and Favre was the latest to criticize her inclusion, suggesting Hubbard enjoys an unfair advantage."It's a man competing as a woman," the former Green Bay Packers quarterback told co-host Eric Bolling on Tuesday, during the latest episode of the Bolling with Favre.
