Cindy Ngamba was on the headlines at the Paris 2024 Games when she became the first medalist for the Olympic refugee team. The boxer born in Cameroon took bronze in the 75 kg category of women and is now watching her professional debut.

He hopes that he will become a bit of a refugee boxer, because he is the first to change into a professional. Ngamba hoped to fight Kird Baveington on the All-Female card at Royal Albert Hall in London this weekend, but he had to withdraw due to the “medical problem.”

However, Ngamba insisted that he would not stop her from achieving his dream of becoming a professional boxer. In an interview with Sky News, she said: “I had a very, very, very tough journey. I am one of 100 million refugees around the world.

“So I will be the first professional for refugees. And I’m sure many, many others will come. I hope that all refugees can simply look at me and see what I achieve, and I hope that this can give them motivation. “

Ngamba had to fight both in and outside the ring to get where she was today, but despite her inspirational history, the 26-year-old was recently refused British citizenship. She lived in Great Britain for 15 years after leaving Cameroon at the age of 11 and was celebrated by King Charles during the party after Olympic, but is trying to let her compete for the GB team in matches 2024 and go forward, falling into the deaf ears because Ngamba had no citizenship.

She explained: “They tried the GB box as its best. I saw them trying to fix my documents earlier before the 2024 Olympic Games. And there was no way to fix it before the Olympic Games. “

The boxer continued, reciting his experience in the immigration office in 2019: “At this point I do not wish my worst enemy. Getting to the arrest camp, talking to all the women who told me they had been there for years, months and days.

“And some of them didn’t even know when they were released. And you go there thinking that it is you and you are wondering if it will be me? Will I be there so long?

“You can’t talk to anyone. You can’t hear from your family, telling you that everything will be fine. Everything will be fine. This was what caused that when gathering at the Olympic Games. I think it only strengthened me. “

On Saturday evening, Fabio Wardley returns against Hungry Matchroom Prospect Justis Huni, who wants to spoil the program on Portman Road.

Fabio Wardley vs Justis Huni will be shown all over the world to Dazna.

The legendary Teddy Atlas coach shocked fans by publishing an amazing $ 1500 plant Social media.

Atlas publicly supported Huni’s Australian perspective before the most arduous test of his career.

These words, coming from such a valued name in boxing, are a sturdy representation for Huni – a warrior who has not yet understood the real level.

The comparison with Kabayel is compelling, with the form in which the German is located. Especially after receiving the victory of the statement on May 18th 2024 against Frank Sanchez.

Kabayel was seen as establishing a bet against Sanchez, but something that Huni would want to imitate in Ipswich.

Both men move sideways and do not rely under the final fight, despite the shots in their arsenal.

“JPH” Huni detained seven of twelve professional opponents, so it is possible to stop.

However, for Wardley he will want to continue his amazing boxing history. In the rematch he leaves the destructive victory over the Clarke phrase.

Wardley is going to return home in Ipswich before at least 20,000 fans.

Wardley’s “Barista” was overdue in boxing.

Without amateur origin, he passed through the rankings of the “White Collar” before he changed the professional in 2017.

“Before Fabio Wardley chose a few boxing gloves, Justis Huni was a box for twelve years, at some point that must matter” – Dev Sahni.

Huni had a completely different entry into boxing, rising through amateurs with many discretion, for example, being a country champion.

The Australian is still relatively unknown in Great Britain and will want to make a statement that he sends shock waves through the heavyweight division on Saturday evening.

The question about the weekend is whether Wardley can continue his unexpected growth of this sport, or whether Huni’s experience and foundation will catch him on a home pitch.
