Isaac Dogboe is hell-bent on fighting his former sparring partner Carl Frampton who purpotedly claims to have knocked down Dogboe “putting him flat on his back with a left hook” in one of their sparring sessions.
Dogboe has responded with the clearest of intent and it appears he is gradually getting under the skin of Frampton who fights 26 year old Tyler McCreary on Saturday 30, November 2019 at the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
“Listen, you can’t fight me in my injury, I know the fight was November 30, but then i got injured and through my injury the fight got cancelled. But now I have been cleared by the Doctor. So then we can make this happen early next year 2020 Dogboe/ Frampton. I am ready and I am a man on a mission. I wanna hurry up and keep going through the divisions.
Just sign the contract. You have a fight coming up and I wish you all the best but after that Frampton- Dogboe let’s get it on.” Red-hot Dogboe bullishly expressed.
Frampton, a Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom born former world champion was irked with Dogboe’s earlier comments of going to “knockout Frampton.” So the Irishman decided to respond in kind.
“Former world champion Isaac Dogboe talked a good game, but in the end he decided not to fight me on November 30 in Las Vegas,” Carl Frampton wrote in his column for Sunday Life.
“I have to say I am very disappointed in Dogboe because he had been talking nonsense about how he was going to knock me out and making suggestions he had got the better of our sparring.
“I remember sparring as well – 14 ounce gloves, bigger than the ones we use in a fight, putting him flat on his back with a left hook, so I think he should keep his disillusion thoughts to himself”.
According to Frampton, Dogboe is ungrateful for calling him out and stating he was the better during their sparring sessions
“I don’t normally talk about sparring, but Dogboe, disappointingly has shown me a lack of respect, as I was the one who helped him out earlier in his career by bringing him into camp.” Frampton stated.
Well, perhaps somebody needs to remind Frampton that there is no such thing in show business and boxing is a show business. So let’s do the talking and get the fight contract signed and for once put the argument to bed, after all the two were pencilled to mount the ring on the 30th of November but for the injury to Dogboe.
