Thomas ranked 462nd when she was competing as a male. But after she won the women’s event, she is ranked No. 1. This has led many to believe that her participation and win are unfair and the American rapper is one of those many.

“Cheater,” began the American rapper. He went ahead to point out her respective ranks at both events to make a point.

“Four-sixty-two and he’s No. 1 in the women, cheater. That’s the only thing you can think of. Cheater. That’s saying, a guy who makes an F yearly ’round, passes the ACT with an A. No, you cheated. That’s how I feel about that situation,” he said.

The rapper went ahead to make several comments on the champion swimmer. He is of the opinion that letting Lia compete in the women’s event is going to set a bad example for future generations.

Boosie was quick to admit that he was “not happy” at all with this decision. According to him, this decision will have consequences in the future.

“Let them women have their glory, man. We let that sh** go down and [in] five, 10 years, they gon’ have kids raising their children to be big strong m**********,” said the rapper. 

He appeared quite disappointed in the “world” for this. He said, “F*** y’all mean. It’s this world. I ain’t happy with it, I’m just in it. I ain’t happy with it at all.”

Despite what public opinion states, Lia Thomas remains the new NCAA Champion. While her participation in the races remains questionable, she’d hope her accolades prove to be the answers.
