Mary Kom who has been Five-time world champion and Olympic bronze-medallist became the first Indian to be picked as representative of the International Boxing Association (AIBA) for the IOC Athletes’ Forum in September 2017.
The 33-year-old athlete has been invited to attend the 8th International Olympic Committee’s (IOC) Athletes’ Forum in Lausanne from 11 November to 13 November 2017.
However, the event overlaps with the Asian Championship in Vietnam, which is scheduled from 2 November to 12 November 2017. If Mary Kom is selected for the tournament after trials later in September 2017, her participation at the IOC event would become uncertain
