Up to now, the pride after getting the first few victories is very common for athletes. Only after suffering from failure, can they improve even more.
The boxing king Truong Dinh Hoang is no exception. In a recent interview he shared
“In 17,18,19 years old I was already a national team athlete. I thought that my victory was so easy. I thought my strength was probably very talented.
But at that time, I seemed to have a shot. I lost an opponent under the program because it was too subjective. Besides, it is also partly due to the psychology of the home field, many people cheered but they could not control the match. I lost so narrowly. “
The first failure of life made Dak Lak's pride consider retiring. However, thanks to the intervention of the coach, he continued his career.
“After that, I intend to leave Boxing. I feel that I have no talent. Fortunately, I encouraged, the teacher told me to lose, trying to practice and revenge.
After that defeat until now is 12 years, I have not lost any match in the national tournament. ”

It can be seen that, if 12 years ago the TDH had a decision to retire, the Vietnamese sports village would lose a talent. The most important thing after failing is to find a way to stand up.
