Finally, a guy left his sincere congratulations for the hawker after knowing her grandson won.
Congratulations to the proud hawker & her grandson
We’re definitely happy for the hawker too, after finding out that her grandson won the boxing match. We’re pretty sure he could feel her support even though she was not physically at the ring. Learning that a family member had emerged victorious would also let the hawker sell her noodles happily throughout the day.
Next time, we hope she’ll get a chance to root for him at the boxing ring as it’ll surely be more exhilarating – speaking from personal experience – catching the moment he wins in person.
