Dogboe knocked out highly rated Juarez and Magdaleno in grand style early in the year despite going into both fights as the underdog.

Having chalked up an impressive record of 20 wins from as many bouts with 14 KOs to his name, Dogboe will face one of the best fighters in his division with Navarrete standing in his way and a successful title defence and to possibly avenge painful losses suffered by his compatriots, Juarez and Magdaleno.
Similar aggression would be expected from the Ghanaian pugilist as he aims to defeat Navarrete in order to realise his title unification ambition next year against either WBC champion, Rey Vargas or WBA titlist, Daniel Roman.
