Former Indian cricketer Manoj Tiwary recently reacted to the ongoing public dispute between legendary boxer Mary Kom and her ex-husband, Karung Onkholer, by posting a video expressing his disappointment. Tiwary voiced his concern regarding Kom's comments on the show 'Aap Ki Adalat,' where she alleged that Onkholer "did not earn a single rupee" and benefited from her earnings. He emphasized the crucial role a support system, like a spouse, plays in a national athlete's career and highlighted Kom's past acknowledgments of Onkholer's support in managing their children and household while she trained. Tiwary reportedly feared for Onkholer's mental well-being following the public humiliation, later deleting his video. The broader controversy stems from the divorce of Mary Kom and Onkholer, finalized in 2023, which became a significant public debate in January 2026. Kom accused Onkholer of financial misconduct, including allegations of defrauding her of crores of rupees, taking loans in her name, and transferring properties without consent, primarily after her career-ending injury in 2022. In response, Onkholer vehemently denied all financial fraud claims, stating his current rented living situation contradicts such accusations. He counter-alleged that Kom had extramarital affairs, first in 2013 with a junior boxer and then in 2017 with an individual associated with her boxing academy, claiming to possess WhatsApp messages as proof. This exchange of serious accusations has transformed their private separation into a widely discussed public and social media trial across India.
