Not that impressed with Nyika in the Olympics, but the pros are another ballgame altogether. Wasn't impressed with Parker as an amateur, and he did quite well as a pro.

With Nyika being around elite boxers, and Lee's coaching, he could go places. Best of luck to him.
Nyika was on TVNZ. Looked really ripped and excited about the trip over to the UK. Hope he does well. On the Parker undercard in December.
yeah I think he goes well in pro's.
Not sure his current weight but presume cruiser is best
He just seems a little wild, with wide shots. But definitely fixable. I always thought of him as a heavyweight. Don't know why. But he has the perfect body for a cruiser or light heavyweight. He'll get good sparring.
Yeah i think he could go places as a cruiserweight, move up the rankings quicker
Don't forget Hemi Ahio tomorrow. In Dubai. Unfortunately, not televised.
Ahio smashes Farid, remains unbeaten

Unbeaten heavyweight Hemi Ahio (17-0, 13 KOs) annihilated Mohammad Ali Bayat Farid (17-3-1, 17 KOs) in two rounds on Saturday night at La Perle in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Ahio dropped Farid in round one and knocked him out in round two to claim the WBC Middle East title. The bout took place in the co-feature of the Amir Khan Crypto Fight Night event, which mainly featured crypto traders in the ring. In the main event, RookieXBT defeated Loomdart to take home the inaugural WBC crypto belt.
