You have just nailed the Asian Boxing Championship at Mongolia, what does it take to be here?<br \/>Mary Kom: <\/strong>It is a lot of sacrifice and support that is required, a constant endeavour from my family so that I could focus on my game and not be bothered elsewhere. My husband has constantly supported me and without his support it could have been very difficult to be where I am today.<br \/><strong><br \/>ISN: Travelling back to time, once you were off to Asian Women\u2019s Boxing Championship in Hissar and you lost all your passport and luggage, how did you manage to concentrate and play your game irrespective of the fact that you had lost all of your belongings?<br \/>Mary Kom: <\/strong>Oh yes, I remember that incident (laughs briefly) I had indeed lost most of my belongings, but my family supported me and soon I was playing my game.<br \/><strong><br \/>ISN: How does it feel to nail the championship yet again?<br \/>Mary Kom: <\/strong>It feels very nice and I\u2019m extremely elated to win the title.<br \/><strong><br \/>ISN: So the Olympics qualifiers are up scheduled in the month of May, how hopeful do you feel?<br \/>Mary Kom: <\/strong>I am very hopeful that I won\u2019t be disappointed.
