Chat with Olympic boxer MC Mary Kom

Boxing ace MC Mary Kom will lead India's medal hopes at the 2012 Olympics in London.

She is the only Indian woman boxer to qualify for the Games despite being on the sidelines after losing in the quarter-finals at the World Championships.

The 29-year-old Manipuri, who is supported by Olympic Gold Quest, has won five consecutive World titles and is the only woman boxer to win a medal in each of the six World Championships.

Mary Kom had to switch over to the flyweight category after her usual weight category was not included in the London Olympics, where women's boxing features for the first

time.

Also known as Magnificent Mary, she is also keen to develop women's boxing in India through her school MC Mary Kom Boxing Academy, set up in 2006 in her home town Manipur.

Here's your chance to catch up with the champion boxer on Rediff.com's Zara Bol chat on Thursday, June 7, 2012 at 11.15 am IST.
