Jai Opetaia to Face David Nyika in January

Jai Opetaia is set to fight David Nyika, a replacement opponent for the IBF cruiserweight title, on January 8th due to Huseyin Cinkara's injury. Nyika, a 2020 Olympic bronze medalist, aims to leverage relentless pressure to challenge Opetaia, who struggles against aggressive fighters. The event is particularly exciting for fans in Australia and New Zealand due to the proximity of the countries. In cricket, New Zealand Women’s will face Australia Women’s in an ODI on December 19, 2024, with Australia having a strong record against New Zealand. Meanwhile, in Test cricket, Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul helped India recover from an early loss against Australia, while Kane Williamson scored his 33rd Test century, becoming the only player with five consecutive centuries at one venue. The ongoing series between England and New Zealand is also being closely followed, with live updates available from Seddon Park.
