India’s six-time world champion and Olympics medallist boxer Mary Kom still possesses that fire and energy and is aiming to make a comeback even at the age of 43. Mary Kom, who won the bronze medal at the London Olympics in 2012, is confident that she can make her presence felt in the ring for another two to three years.     “I really want to [make a] comeback, because my life is always connected with boxing. I have achieved so much for my country, but my hunger is still there and I want to fight for another two, three years.  

If the nation supports, loves and [gives their] blessings, I will definitely come back very soon,” Mary Kom told mid-day on the sidelines of the IBA Global Boxing Series (GBS) at Nexus Seawoods Mall in Navi Mumbai, where she was the chief guest. She has many offers too, but is waiting for the right one: “I was looking for a good opportunity [as a professional boxer]. Many offers came through in the last two years, but there are certain things that I avoided and ignored because I didn’t want to. But let’s see in the future.”
