Yes he is turning Pro!
Yoka "I'll do as Anthony Joshua and go pro" Champion Olympic in 2012 in the category of heavy weights among amateurs, Briton Anthony Joshua has emerged in professional the following year. He became an example for Tony Yoka who dream of imitating its path: '' I will do as Anthony Joshua and go pro. I saw him, he congratulated me. I saw him work, work, work for three years to become Olympic champion. Today is the super heavyweight star and I in sight. Walking in his footsteps, it's a good goal, '' said Boxer tricolor AFP.

Hope he turns over - an Olympic gold medal is always something to sell a fight.
He is only a baby I suppose but I can't say he looked that impressive at the Olympics but I don't think he robbed anyone in his wins either - and he won a gold medal!
I would like Joe Joyce to turn over too and get up to British title level in about a year just because fights with Chisora, Whyte, Price, and even even Hughie Fury would be interesting. I don't see how he isn't suited to the pros? Or is the argument that he will probably take a bit of pasting at some point? That would likely happen but you could imagine that guy in some cracking fights even if does get levelled a few times.
