    A new opponent for David Nyika will be announced tomorrow

    A new opponent for David Nyika will be announced tomorrow


    It comes after the cruiserweight's original combatant, Australian Blake Caparello, failed a drugs test for elevated testosterone ten days out from the fight.

    In a statement, Duco Events say they've secured a "tough, credible and vastly experienced opponent" willing to take on Nyika at short notice.

    Caparello, meanwhile, intends to appeal the findings from the Voluntary Anti-Doping Agency.
