Achievers train for a
purpose. They train for themselves and train all the time. They think and
anticipate all the time. They improvise and keep on adding to their skills.
Even if they lose some time , they emerge as a more stronger soul. MARY KOM is
one such fighter Indian champion . Mary was born in a poor tribal family
in far flung Indian state of MANIPUR. She worked in the fields and helped
her parents. She was inspired to take to Boxing and started learning it with
gusto. Mary’s determination and belief in herself started winning her medals
and recognition. Mary Kom is the only boxer to have won a medal in each
of the six world cup championships so far including 5 Gold medals. Mary also
added to her illustrious exploits a bronze in 2012 OLYMPIC GAMES as well
as many medals at ASIAN level. Marys gold in Asian Games recently held in September
14 is really special. Marys’ achievements are all the more noteworthy as
Manipur has hardly produced any female idol & MARY has risen like a star
from nowhere. No wonder, MARY is nicknamed as MAGNIFICIENT MARY. Mary has
been true to her love of boxing and quote of ARNOLD HORSHOK sums it up
comprehensively * Winning is nice if you don’t lose your integrity in the
process.*
