    Kiwi boxer David Nyika has revealed the mental hurdles he's battled since suffering his first professional loss in devastating fashion

    Kiwi boxer David Nyika has revealed the mental hurdles he's battled since suffering his first professional loss in devastating fashion


    The two-time Commonwealth Games champion will fight compatriot Nik "The Greek" Charalampous on next month's Sonny Bill Williams-Paul Gallen undercard in Sydney.

    The bout will be Nyika's first since a brutal knockout defeat by IBF cruiserweight champion Jai Opetaia in January.

    Nyika says his resilience is being tested.
