Dogboe and Tagoe to battle it out in a bout that would have a prize money of $200,000

Emmanuel ‘Game Boy’s defeated Argentine David Saucedo via a round ten TKO on Saturday, but fans who thronged the Bukom Boxing Arena were not impressed with the performance and have questioned the boxing prowess of the 30-year-old.

However, the camp of Emmanuel Tagoe and the boxer himself have thrown a big challenge to Isaac Dogboe who is now emerging as the face of Ghanaian boxing to be his next opponent to make a case for man born and bred at James Town as the finest in the country.

Isaac Dogboe’s father has accepted the challenge and he has disclosed that his son is ready to fight for the winner takes all bout which would have a purse of $200,000.
