TIL Desk Sports/ London Olympics bronze medallist M.C. Mary Kom said that her only aim right now is to ensure that she wins an Olympic medal of a different colour in Tokyo next year. Mary became the first female boxer from India to win an Olympic medal when she won a bronze at London 2012.
She qualified for the Tokyo Olympics at the Asian qualifiers in Amman, Jordan earlier in the year. Eventually however, the Olympics itself was postponed to July 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic. “There are always a lot of expectations whenever I am in the ring and that stays in my mind,” Mary says ”The Medal of Glory” which airs on the network”s Facebook page on Wednesday.
“I do spend sleepless nights sometimes thinking about how to make myself better, how to work on my weaknesses and so on.”It is because of the prayers that come my way that I have been so successful. I am still working on my strength, stamina, speed and endurance. Right now my main dream is to change the colour of the Olympic medal this time.”
