Tyson Fury’s Homecoming Bout Receives a Massive Boost – Conlan vs Dogboe Added to Undercard

News has emerged that undefeated fighter Michael Conlan will fight Isaac Dogboe on December 5 this year. The headline of the event will be the homecoming of WBC world heavyweight champion, Tyson Fury. The event will take place at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

With Tyson Fury’s opponent confirmation still not announced, ESPN reports that the event will include an interesting match up between Michael Conlan and Isaac Dogboe. The two fighters will hope to prove themselves at the biggest stage.

Michael Conlan has been making steady progress in the sport with a perfect record of 14-0. Eight of those came through knockouts. On the other hand, Isaac Dogboe is a former WBO junior featherweight champion. This makes the fight very interesting and worthy of being on the undercard of the Tyson Fury.

Speaking to ESPN, Conlan said, “I’m really excited for this fight. He’s a former world champion and a dangerous guy.” The undefeated Irishman added, “As soon as it was mentioned, I said, ‘Yes get it done.’ Isaac likes to talk, and I’m looking forward to shutting him up!”

Isaac Dogboe will have something to prove himself. Out of his last 3 fights, he has lost 2. His win against Chris Avalos will give him the momentum he needs in this fight.

There have been reports about Fury’s opponent being Carlos Takam, but no official announcement has been made as yet.

Michael Conlan vs Isaac Dogboe on Tyson Fury’s undercard: What to expect?

When the announcement was made, Michael Conlan reacted on his Twitter by tweeting, “Yeah that’s right, let’s goooooooo! #TheConlanRevolution.“ Dogboe, on the other hand, tweeted the reason behind him agreeing to the fight.

“My main reason to fight Conlan is the mere fact that he’s the quickest route for me to become 2x world champion! When his name was mentioned i said, ‘Yes sir, I LOVE IT. LETS GO!”

Both fighters possess some serious knockout power and have experience in the ring and will not shy away from the spotlight.

Dogboe is a vocal fighter and Conlan has already stated his disdain towards that, giving fans something more than just the Fury fight to look forward to. Thus, we can expect a tough fight if both fighters bring their A-game. It will set the tone for the main event.
