Round of 16 bout against Evhen Khytrov (red) at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London

Ogogo secured his place on the GB Boxing team for the 2012 London Olympics in Trabzon, Turkey in April 2012. Ogogo was the first of the British boxers to make their Olympic debut, on 28 July, opening with a round of 32 bout against Junior Castillo of Dominican Republic, who he beat by a score of 13–6. In his round of 16 bout, Ogogo entered the biggest fight, against world champion and world number one Ukrainian's Evhen Khytrov. With the judges score drawn, and the 52–52 count-back score not separating the fighters, the decision went down to the judges to press either the blue or red pad based on their opinion as to who deserved the decision. The majority of the five officials chose Ogogo. One fight from a bronze medal, Ogogo fought Germany's Stefan Härtel in the quarter-finals. Ogogo continued his successful form with a 15–10 victory. He went on to box Brazilian Esquiva Falcão Florentino in the semi-final but his opponent proved to be too strong for him. Ogogo lost the bout 16:9, claiming a bronze medal. [9] A post box in his home town of Lowestoft (on Rectory Road) was painted bronze in honour of this result, [10] but has since been re-painted red.

Professional boxing career

Early fights and injury

In December 2012, Ogogo signed his first professional contract, with Los Angeles-based promotional company Golden Boy Promotions. [6]

He won his first professional bout against Kieron Gray, stopping him in the second round.

After 7 professional fights, Ogogo was out for a year after requiring surgery for an Achilles tendon injury.

Return and International middleweight title fight

During his comeback fight against Ruslan Schelev in July 2015 he dislocated his shoulder in the second round, but continued until the end of the six rounds to take a unanimous decision. [11] On 29 May 2016 Ogogo needed less than three rounds to win his comeback from injury. After a one-sided two-and-a-half rounds, Gary Cooper's corner threw in the towel to award Ogogo a successful return from a 10-month absence. [12] Cooper was an 11th-hour replacement for Germany's Chris Herrmann in Glasgow on the undercard of Ricky Burns’ Super WBA super-lightweight title fight. [13]

It was announced on 10 June that Ogogo would fight for the first time at the O2 Arena on the undercard of Anthony Joshua vs. Dominic Breazeale on 25 June. This would be part of a stacked card including George Groves, Martin Murray, Chris Eubank Jr, Conor Benn and Dillian Whyte. [14] Ogogo defeated Frane Radnic (11-2, 10 KOs), after knocking Radnic down from a left in the 1st round. Radnic did not return for round 2. [15] Ogogo fought for the third time in just seven weeks against experienced 37 year old Bronislav Kubin (19-20-2, 12 KOs) in Berlin on the undercard of a super-middleweight world title fight. [16] Ogogo won the fight via 2nd-round TKO. Kubin was knocked down twice in round one and four times in round 2 as the referee waved the fight off. [17]

Ogogo's first title match was announced, which would take place at the Barclaycard Arena in Birmingham on 22 October on the undercard of the Frankie Gavin vs. Sam Eggington fight. Ogogo fought Craig Cunningham (16-1, 3 KOs) for the vacant WBC International middleweight title. [18] Ogogo suffered his first loss since turning pro, having been dropped by Cunningham in round 2, who then controlled the remainder of the fight. Trainer Tony Sims pulled Ogogo out of the fight during the 8th round after a timeout by referee Ian John Lewis, due to blurred vision. Ogogo was also staggered by Cunningham's accurate counter punching in rounds four and five. [19] It was confirmed after the fight that Ogogo fractured his eye socket and would be out until later 2017. [20] In January 2017, Ogogo's promoter Nisse Sauerland said that he was recovering well and would make a return in the second half of 2017. [21]

Blindness and retirement

In March 2017, still wanting to become a world champion, Ogogo was registered blind. He was advised to retire by a number of eye specialists. At this stage, Ogogo had undergone two operations on his left eye. Speaking to Lowestoft Journal, Ogogo said his driving licence was also taken away from him as he was not allowed to drive. [22]

In January 2019, Ogogo expressed hope that after his eye surgery he could come back to the ring. [23]

On 11 March 2019, having not fought since October 2016, Ogogo retired from boxing at the age of 30. [24] He released a long statement thanking many names who had helped and guided him throughout his amateur and professional career, closing the statement with, "I’ve been through a lot in my career. I’ve had 17 operations and suffered every pain imaginable. I’ve won, lost, cried and hurt. But if you were to ask me would I do it again? In a heartbeat. I love this game." He retired with a record of 11 wins and one sole loss, during his short four-year professional career. [25]

Professional wrestling career

Following his retirement from boxing, Ogogo began his career in professional wrestling. [26] On 23 February 2019, he made his wrestling debut in his hometown for the World Association of Wrestling (WAW). [27]

In April 2019, Ogogo was featured on Cody Rhodes' Nightmare Family YouTube series, The Road to Double or Nothing . [28] On 26 October 2019, it was announced that he had signed with Cody's All Elite Wrestling (AEW) promotion. [29] Ogogo is AEW's first developmental wrestler, being trained by Dustin Rhodes and Q. T. Marshall. [3] [30] On 27 October 2020, Ogogo began appearing as a commentator on AEW Dark .

On 31 March 2021, Ogogo would make his debut on AEW Dynamite , attacking Cody Rhodes and aligning himself with Q. T. Marshall, Nick Comoroto, and Aaron Solo, establishing himself as a heel. He feuded with Cody Rhodes until AEW Double or Nothing 2021. Ogogo lost to Rhodes in a single match at the event. [31] He would have one more in AEW before having eye surgery, and was out injured for 6 months. [32] Ogogo returned to the ring on the 1 December taping of AEW Dark: Elevation in an eight-man tag match. [33]

On the 6 April 2024 episode of AEW Collision , Ogogo returned to AEW, assisting Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor and Lee Moriarty) in attacking Chris Jericho and Hook, joining the stable in the process. [34]
