Dogboe thanks Ghanaians for their support after comeback win
All hope seems lost for a young Ghanaian boxer, Isaac Dogboe, after losing back- to-back world title bouts against Mexican, Emmanuel Navarette.
Dogboe’s reputation was dealt a huge blow, after a failed attempt to recapture the world title in May 2019. This resulted in the 25-year-old’s decision to take a long break from boxing, a decision many deemed out as an end of his boxing career.
But the former WBO Super bantamweight world champion, on Wednesday registering an 8th round TKO win against American, Chris Avalos, in his comeback bout at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
Dogboe took to his official Twitter page after the bout, to pay tribute to the support he received from Ghanaians during his difficult period.
ALL PRAISE BE TO GOD!!!
THANK YOU ALL FOR THE SHOW OF LOVE AND SUPPORT. LOVE YOU ALL ❤️❤️❤️.
GOD BLESS. 🇬🇭🇬🇧 #DogboeReturns #NEHO #HEADBANGERS pic.twitter.com/xsNHjDh1uu— Isaac Dogboe (@IsaacDogboe) July 22, 2020
The victory was Dogboe’s first as a featherweight, after moving up from the Super bantamweight division.
