Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam (born 18 February 1984) is a Cameroonian-French professional boxer. He is a two-time middleweight world champion, having held the WBA (Regular) title since May 2017, and previously the WBO title in 2012. As of December 2016, N'Dam N'Jikam is ranked as the world's fifth best middleweight by the Transnational Boxing Rankings Board, eighth by The Ring magazine, and tenth by BoxRec.
N'dam N'Jikam won a silver medal in the middleweight division at the 2003 All-Africa Games, losing to Ramadan Yasser of Egypt in the final. N'dam N'jikam also represented Cameroon in the middleweight bracket at the 2004 Olympics, defeating Juan Ubaldo of the Dominican Republic and Andy Lee of Ireland on close countback decisions, but losing in the quarter-finals to eventual gold medallist Gaydarbek Gaydarbekov of Russia. Following the Olympics, and having no means of boxing professionally in his native Cameroon, N'dam N'Jikam moved to France due to the shared language.
At the 2016 Olympics, professional boxers were permitted to compete at the Olympics for the first ever time. As one of the few professionals who entered, N'dam N'Jikam once again represented Cameroon and qualified for the light-heavyweight bracket, but lost in the first round to Michel Borges of Brazil. This was seen as a surprise to many boxing observers, who predicted that amateurs would not fare well against experienced professionals.
