Dennis Hogan (born 1 March 1985) is an Irish professional boxer who is a former IBO super-welterweight World champion.

Amateur boxing career

Hogan gathered an extensive amateur career of over 150 fights. He lost to the 2008 Olympic Finalist Kenny Egan in the semi-finals of the 2009 Irish Selection Tournament, 2009 and 2010 Irish Nationals. He won the All Ireland Light Heavyweight Championship.[1]

Professional boxing career

Hogan made his professional debut in a winning effort against Marlon Toby by corner retirement on 1 April 2011.[2]

Hogan won his first professional title on 21 November 2011, beating Glen Fitzpatrick for the vacant Australian National Boxing Federation Queensland super-middleweight title by technical knockout in the fourth round.[2]

On 5 December 2015, Hogan received his first major title opportunity facing Jack Culcay for the WBA Interim super-welterweight title losing by unanimous decision to record the first defeat of his career.[3]

On 13 April 2019, Hogan faced Jaime Munguía for his WBO World super-welterweight title but lost by majority decision.[4]

Hogan challenged WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo on 7 December 2019 at Barclays Center, Brooklyn, USA, losing by technical knockout in the seventh-round after being knocked to the canvas in rounds four and seven.[5]

On 31 March 2021, Hogan lost to Tim Tszyu by technical knockout when his corner threw in the towel after he was floored the fifth round of the bout at Newcastle Entertainment Centre, Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia.[6]

His three-match losing streak was finally broken on 17 November 2021, with a defeat of Tommy Browne by unanimous decision at Qudos Bank Arena, Sydney, Australia.[7]

Hogan won the IBO super-welterweight World title with a majority decision win against defending champion Sam Eggington at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre on 8 October 2022.[8]

He lost the title in his first defence on 20 May 2023, going down by unanimous decision to JJ Metcalf at the 3Arena in Dublin, Ireland.[9]

In April 2024, Hogan took to social media to reveal he had taken a job as a sales representative for an electrical wholesale firm and was unlikely to return to boxing stating: "Circumstances outside my control in boxing put me on this path and unless you’ve got a big bag of cash or a great fight offer then I’ll be just focused on this."[10]

Personal life

Hogan currently lives in Newstead, Queensland, Australia.[11]
