Six-time world champion MC Mary Kom (51 kg) defeated Nikhat Zareen in an intense and ill-tempered trial bout here on Saturday to make the Indian boxing team for next year’s Olympic qualifiers in China.
In a bout which featured very few clear punches, the 36-year-old Mary Kom prevailed 9-1 against the 23-year-old former junior world champion to make the squad. Tension was palpable inside the boxing hall before and after the bout owing to the bitter row triggered by Zareen’s public demand for a trial.
Words were exchanged between the boxers during the bout and outside the ring, and a few representatives from Zareen’s home state Telangana’s boxing association cried foul once the result was declared. The two also didn’t shake hands after the fight and Mary Kom rebuffed Zareen’s attempt at a hug.
