CONFIRMED: Dogboe To Return August 25 In USA
Isaac Dogboe will be making his first defence of his WBO World super bantamweight strap on August 25th in USA against yet to be named opponent.
Dogboe won the belt after stopping then champion Jessie Magdaleno in round 11 last month in Philadelphia.
Dogboe’s co-manager Ellis Quashigah in an interview three weeks ago said that the 23 year-old hard puncher will make his first defense of his strap on August 25th.
“For now, there is confirmation of a title defence on August 25 but we are not in the position to state the opponent because we have not signed yet signed the contract yet,” Quashigah said.
Dogboe’s is currently Ghana’s eighth World Champion after D.K Poison, Azumah Nelson, Nana Yaw Konadu, Ike Quartey, Alfred Kotey, Joseph Agbeko and Joshua Clottey.
The former Olympian is currently in UK preparing feverishly for his upcoming battle.
