LONDON — At the Paris Olympics, boxer Cindy Ngamba became the first athlete competing as a refugee to secure a medal. The 26-year-old middleweight now has her sights set on professional glory. She will make her pro debut March 7 in London as part of an all-female card headlined by a welterweight unification bout between Lauren Price and Natasha Jonas at the Royal Albert Hall. Ngamba's opponent was not named. Originally from Cameroon, Ngamba won a bronze medal in Paris last summer as a member of the Refugee Olympic Team.
