		+
		+
		+	Mary Kom may have won her record sixth World Championship title last November, but that will not make her India’s automatic choice for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics in the 51kg.
		+
		+	On a day when the London Games bronze medallist became the world No.1 pugilist in her pet 48kg category, TOI learnt that Mary and other women boxers will have to appear for selection trials ahead of the qualifiers for the Tokyo Olympics. Mary was ranked No. 1 by the International Boxing Association (AIBA) in the 45-48kg (light flyweight) category, scoring 1700 points.
		+
		+	The Boxing Federation of India (BFI) had of late introduced a ranking-based system to select the boxers for major international and multi-sport events. But for the Tokyo Games, there are plans afoot for trials for both the men and women boxers in an attempt to avoid charges of favouritism.
		+
		+	The Italian Raffaele Bergamasco-led women coaching staff seems quite clear on what they intend to do in the run up to Tokyo. Simply, if Mary, like any other boxer, has to participate in Tokyo, she will have to compete against the best in the 51kg, comprising, among others, the talented trio of Pinki Jangra, Sarjuabala and Nikhat Zareen.
		+
		+	Mary’s original weight category – 48kg – in which the Manipur boxer won her sixth world gold, isn’t part of the Olympic programme, making it imperative for her to compete in 51kg. Bergamasco & Co are approaching the BFI much in advance with their plan, given the history of much-maligned trials in Indian boxing.
		+
		+	It’s been learnt that the coaches will hold discussions with Mary and other boxers in Delhi next week.
		+
		+	Mary commands considerable respect and influence in the Indian boxing fraternity, and sometimes her reputation precedes other things making the current coaches team a wary lot. According to sources, the coaches didn’t want a situation where Mary becomes the BFI’s automatic choice in the 51kg category, leaving other boxers feeling shortchanged.
		+
		+	The boxing trials have always been a tricky affair, as was seen during the time of Glasgow CWG, Incheon Asiad and 2016 Rio Olympics.

		+
		+
		+	Immediately after securing a medal at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in April this year, MC Mary Kom had hinted that she might give the 2018 Asian Games a miss. A little over a month later, the trip to Jakarta is looking increasingly unlikely for Mary Kom, although she is currently at the Olympic Performance Training Centre in Assisi, Italy, with other women pugilists from India who are preparing for the Asian Games.
		+
		+	The chief coach of the women’s team, Raffaele Bergamasco, confirmed that five-time world champion Mary is now more focussed on the women’s boxing World Championship which will take place in New Delhi in November this year. “We believe that it will be difficult for Mary to compete in the 51kg category (there are only three categories in Asian Games boxing — 51kg, 57kg and 60kg). The competition in 51kg is quite tough with good boxers from Kazakhstan, Mongolia and South Korea. We feel that it won’t be in her best interests to go up from 48kg to 51kg at this stage. It’s important for her to remain fit and keep up her good performances in her weight category,” Bergamasco told TOI from Assisi on Wednesday.
		+
		+	Over the last one year, 35-year-old Mary has managed to win gold in Asian Championships and Commonwealth Games and the mother-of-three will look to add another world title to her name, especially in front of the home crowd. She is currently training alongside Monika (48kg), Sarjubala Devi and Pinki Rani (both 51kg), Meena Maisnam (54kg), two-time Asian Championship silver medallist Sonia Lather and 2017 World Youth Champion gold medallist Shashi Chopra in the 57kg, Laishram Sarita Devi and Pavitra (both 60kg), Simranjit Kaur (64kg), Lovlina Boroghain and Pooja (both 69kg), former World Championship silver medallist Saweety Bora (75kg), Asian Championship bronze medallist Seema Poonia (81 kg) and Lalfakmawii Ralte (+81 kg).
		+
		+	They are in Assisi with top women boxers from Finland, Romania and Italy for a fortnight-long camp. “It is very important to work on strength and moverment. At this moment, performance is not as important as the preparation for the Asian Games,” coach Bergamasco felt.
