Ghana’s Isaac ‘Royal Storm’ Dogboe is the new WBO International super bantamweight champion after demolishing Julian Evaristo Aristule of Argentina at the Vector Arena in Auckland, New Zealand on Saturday on the undercard of the Joseph Parker versus Andy Ruiz WBO world heavyweight
championship.
The 22 year old Ghanaian whizz kid improved his undefeated career record to 16-0, 10 KOs after dominating the vastly experienced Aristule (now 32-7, 16 KOs) all fight long before finally knocking out the Argentine in round seven of the fight between number 8 and number 9 ranked contenders to the WBO world title held by Jesse Magdaleno of the United States.
In the end, Dogboe who was recently named the WBO’s African boxer of the year underlined his credentials with the brilliant show in New Zealand and could potentially earn a shot at Magdaleno early next year.
In the main bout, Joseph Parker won the WBO heavyweight world title courtesy a close majority decision, 114-114, 115-113, 115-113 over Andy Ruiz whilst Jeff Horn won a 6th round TKO over Ali Funenka on the undercard.
