Isaac Dogboe ends trial period with new trainer Roach

The pair have been training together over the past month, but it appears things haven’t panned out as planned.

BoxingAfrica.com reports that a spokesperson for Roach confirmed that the American trainer and Dogboe had indeed parted ways.

The source is quoted as saying their time together was only a “trial period” that ended with Roach concluding that it wasn’t “the right fit.”

Dogboe has seen his career take a major hit following two successive losses to Mexico’s Emmanuel Navarette.

Last December, Dogboe lost his WBO super bantamweight title to Navarette following a one-sided bout.

It was the first professional defeat in the career of the Ghanaian after he lost by unanimous decision to his opponent.

Dogboe had a rematch with Navarette in May, but again fell flat against the Mexican.

This time, the Ghanaian could not last the entire 12 rounds, as he was handed a Technical Knockout (TKO) in the final round.

Meanwhile, the former WBO super bantamweight champion has indicated his readiness to face Navarette for a third time.

The bout could place on December 14 at Madison Square Garden in New York.
