They say a true champion is one, who is humble in victory and gracious in defeat. Mary Kom proved yesterday that she is a true world champion. The five-time world champion boxer, albeit in different categories (46kg, 48kg), lost her Asian Games 48-51Kg semi-final bout 7-11 to reigning world champion Ren Cancan but won hearts at the Foshan Lingnan Mingzhu Gymnasium here with her sheer grit.
