Head of Team Dogboe, Paul Dogboe who doubles as the father and trainer of Isaac Dogboe has promised Cesar Juarez and his team of fair judging.

Dogboe and Juarez will slug it out on January 6th for the vacant interim WBO world super bantamweight belt at the Bukom Boxing Arena.

Ahead of the fight, Juarez’s manager Sean Gibbons in an interview stated that their concern is not about Isaac but the judges on the said day.

But Paul in a swift reply has promised Juarez and his team of fair treatment.

“Evert since we fought in Ghana we have never picked judges before,” Paul told Ghanacrusader.com. If the fight is being sanctioned by the WBO, the WBO picks the judges, up till now i don’t know who is judging we don’t know who the referee even is.”

He continued, “One thing i can assure is, Ghana has a nation and then the boxing fraternity in Ghana are very honest, if the decision is for Juarez and they give it to Isaac Ghanaians hearts will leave Isaac, if the decision is for Isaac and they give it to the Ghanaians will be very violent on the night.

“So we believe in fairness, we brought Edward Kakembo we treated him with respect, we brought John Neil Tabanao when he was leaving he made a video saying he was treated with respect. That is what we believe in, warriors don’t cheat, you can’t be a warrior and you meet your enemy he turns his back and maybe shot him in his back or do somthing to him in his back. It means that you are not a true warrior.”
