    Boxer David Nyika is refusing to do away with his amateur career completely, as he embarks on boxing as a professional journey


    The Olympic bronze medallist will travel to England to train with Joseph Parker under Andy Lee.

    Nyika will fight on the undercard of Parker's rematch with Derek Chisora.
