Isaac Dogboe's world title opponent Jessie Magdaleno rejects fight

Ghana Ghana

Ghana’s Isaac Dogboe’s hope of challenging Jessie Magdaleno for Magdaleno’s WBO super bantamweight belt has hit a snag as the American has picked WBO Latino champion Adeilson Dos Santos for April 22nd clash in California, Sportscrusader.com can confirm.

The camp of Dogboe were in high hopes of getting a world title shot after the Ghanaian claimed the vacant WBO international super bantamweight belt against Argentina’s Julian Evaristo Aristule last December.

But it has failed to materialized as Magdaleno will be making the first defense of his WBO super bantamweight title against Dos Santos.

The 22 year-old Ghanaian will then have to wait for another day to fight Magdaleno.
