Isaac Dogboe has been in the news today for allegedly switching nationality from Ghana to the UK ahead of his Featherweight world title eliminator against Joet Gonzalez.
The news was first circulated by TV3 after they revealed that the 27-year-old boxer announced his nationality switch during a press conference in Accra.
However, in a new statement the management of the boxer has issued, they have advised the general public to refrain from all news saying their boxer has switched his nationality from Ghana.
In the statement, they wrote:
IMMEDIATE RELEASE

He has and will always fight for Ghana and has not issued any communication or granted any interview on a nationality switch.
Kindly disregard any such information. Let’s all rally behind him as the North American Boxing Federation (NABF) Champion to clinch the number 1 title contender position come Saturday 23rd July. 2022 at the Grand Casino Hinckley, Minnesota, USA for the motherland.
