Ramirez, gold medallist at the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, was always in control as he scored an emphatic victory at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The 29-year-old Ramirez won by large margins on all three judges’ cards, with the scores coming in at 117-110, 118-109 and 119-108.
Ramirez improved his record to 12-1 with seven knockouts.
“This is a new history that I’m writing,” Ramirez said after the win.
“I did everything I had to do as an Olympian, I won two Olympic gold medals – now I can call myself a world champion.”
The Britain-based Dogboe, who fell to 24-3 (16 by knockout), took exception to the scoring.
Despite the wide margins on all three cards that made the last round immaterial, Dogboe was incensed that a 12th round knockdown was not classified as a slip.
“Robeisy Ramirez is a terrific fighter, but this result is bullsh*t,” Dogboe said.
“It wasn’t a knockdown, it was a slip.
“If he’s a true champion, let’s run it back and have a rematch. He’s a great fighter but let’s have that rematch.”
