Team Dogboe left Ghana ahead of a World title fight with WBO World super bantamweight champion Jessie Magdaleno on April 28 in Philadelphia.

The bout will be Magdaleno’s second defence of his belt and his first fight since April 2017 when he made his first defence of his belt against Brazil’s Adeilson Dos Santos.

The two boxers have been involved in war of words and people are expecting them to put up a good show.

The President of the Ghana Boxing Association is confident Dogboe will beat his opponent and bring home the belt.

Dogboe stopped Cesar Juarez in round five to win the interim WBO World super bantamweight belt at the Bukom Boxing Arena in January.
