He moved to London with his parents. His father Paul Dogboe is an ex-British soldier and boxing trainer. The parents had a bitter divorce, Dogboe’s mother sold their house and the player text his father that he was no longer interested in working with him.
Mr Paul Dogboe has not seen his son for quite a while since he wants nothing to do with him. Could be he was brainwashed by his mother into disassociating himself from his dad.
His father always supported him in his fights but failed to show up in the USA fight against Robeisy Ramirez which Dogboe lost and claimed he was cheated by the judges.
He is currently dating but not much is known about his girlfriend.
Career
At the age of eight years, Dogboe qualified for the 2012 Olympics by winning a silver medal at the African Olympic Qualifying Event, beating Mohammed Bedir from Egypt, Emilian Polino from Tanzania, Ayabonga Sonjica from Russia and only lost on countback after a 6:6 draw in the final to Aboubakr Lbida.
In the first round of the Olympics, Dogboe faced Satoshi Shimizu from Japan. Ahead on points in the first two rounds, he lost the bout after the judges scored round three in favour of Shimizu, overturning Dogboe’s lead.
The verdict was met with vocal displeasure from ringside spectators and was later described as a mystery decision by media outlets.
One year after the Olympics, he turned professional compiling a record of 17-0 Before getting into a fight with Cesar Juarez for the vacant WBO interim junior-featherweight title, winning through fifth-round stoppage.

In his next fight, he would face and beat Jessie Magdeleno to capture the full WBO junior-featherweight title.
The boxer successfully defended his WBO title with a first-round knockout against Hidenori Otake at the Gila River Arena in Glendale, USA. Dogboe knocked the ageing Otake down two times before referee Patrick Morley stepped in to prevent Otake from taking further punishment.
Dogboe lost his WBO title to Emmanuel Navarrete at the Hulu Theatre in New York City’s Madison Square Garden. All three judges scored the fight in Navarrete’s favour.
The following year, the pair fought a rematch and Dogboe lost once again this time by twelfth-round technical knockout.
He had his last fight in 2021 where he won against Adam Lopez at The Theatre at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas. The win came almost a year after Dogboe knocked out Chris Avalos in his return bout after successive defeats to Mexican Emmanuel Navarrete.
