2:37Now PlayingCindy Ngamba was the first-ever member of the Olympic refugee team to win a medal at Paris 2024 summer games.
The 26-year-old is now preparing for her professional debut on Friday night.
Even though she was celebrated by King Charles during a post-Olympics reception, Ngamba was unable to compete for Team GB as she has not been granted British citizenship.
That is despite now being in Britain for 15 years, since leaving Cameroon aged 11.
Sky News' Rob Harris spoke to Cindy ahead of her professional debut.
