Post of the week: Tears of joy over Tiafack

For Olympic bronze medalist Nelvie Tiafack, money and fame are nothing if you “can’t look your fellow human beings in the eye.”

Super heavyweight Nelvie Tiafack was a guest at a nursing home in his hometown of Bergheim today. The 25-year-old wrote on the Instagram post: “Tears of joy were shed today just because I was there for a visit. That’s the biggest motivation for me and is worth more to me than every penny!” (Photo: Instagram / Nelvie Tiafack)
