Ghanian boxer Emmanuel Tagoe has signed a co-promotional deal with Probellum and DiBella Entertainment \u2013 and he is ready to cause a major upset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tagoe heads to Texas on Saturday night to face the returning Ryan Garcia, one of the unbeaten stars of a lightweight division brimming with talent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A former IBO title holder, Tagoe will start as an underdog but \u2018The Gameboy\u2019 \u2013 widely considered one of the top 10 fighters at 135lbs \u2013 cares little about the odds and the man from the proud boxing city of Accra is in a \u201cdangerous\u201d mood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Garcia is being groomed as the heir to the lightweight throne, but Tagoe is refusing to kneel to \u2018King Ry\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cNobody is expecting me to win this fight but mark my words; there is an upset on the cards in San Antonio this weekend,\u201d declared Emmanuel Tagoe (32-1, 15KO).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI respect Garcia\u2019s ability but he\u2019s accepted a challenge against one of the best fighters in the 135lbs division and, let me tell you, it\u2019s a whole different ball game at this level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSaturday night will mark the second stage of my career and with the backing of Probellum and DiBella Entertainment, I am determined to show the world what Ghanian fighters are all about.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Richard Schaefer, President of Probellum, said: \u201cHistory has shown that Ghana produces world class boxers and Emmanuel Tagoe will remind everyone of that fact in Texas this weekend\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFor Probellum to be able to co-promote Emmanuel and help him reaffirm his position as a flag bearer for boxing in his homeland, is as real honour for our company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe is in a brilliant fight with Ryan Garcia and we believe that Tagoe will shock the world on Saturday night.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Emmanuel Tagoe is one of the top\u202fboxing talents from Ghana and is on a 32-fight winning\u202fstreak,\u201d said Lou DiBella, President of DiBella Entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe is hungry,\u202fdetermined and dangerous as he enters the biggest fight of his life against Ryan Garcia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The attention that Probellum is paying to the Ghanaian boxing scene makes them a natural co-promoter for Emmanuel as his career progresses through Garcia and beyond.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
