nSummary of the book
n
nMary Kom chronicles her amazing journey as a boxer in this tell-all autobiography - her unyielding love and passion for boxing, and the countless hurdles she had to face on her way to fame. She recounts the events in her life that occurred until she became the only Indian woman boxer to have ever won medals in all the six world championships. Born to humble peasants, Mary had to struggle to be trained under the Manipur state boxing coach. It was only her unwavering willpower and a burning passion for becoming the best that made her train to accomplish only one dream – help her family lead a better and a more fulfilling life. Although she was trying to make a mark in a male-dominated sport, Mary managed to win the bronze medal at the Summer Olympics in 2012. She also doesn’t forget to mention the extraordinary support she received from her husband, K. Onler Kom, and her family.
