Caroline Dubois aims to become the undisputed lightweight champion this year, setting her sights on a major showdown with Alycia Baumgardner. The undefeated WBC titleholder is keen to unify against one of her rivals in the 135-pound division.
Dubois' attention has turned to Turhan, the IBF world champion who faces Taylah Gentzen in Newcastle this weekend. Dubois will be watching the result with interest, expecting a challenging fight for Nur Turhan. "She's got power and is very unproven," Dubois said of her rival. While Dubois acknowledges that Nur Turhan has proven herself by winning the IBF belt, she believes that the young champion has yet to demonstrate consistency in her performances.
Dubois' focus now shifts to Baumgardner, who holds the WBA title. The British boxer is keen to challenge Baumgardner and prove herself as a force to be reckoned with at 135 pounds. "The Alycia Baumgardner fight, that's a huge name," Dubois said of her American rival. Baumgardner is known for her dominant style, which often leaves her opponents feeling frustrated.
Dubois, however, is confident in her abilities and believes she has what it takes to outbox the WBA champion. "I believe I'm better than her," Dubois said. The two fighters have a reputation for clashing with their personalities, but Dubois remains undeterred. "This isn't going to happen," she declared. Baumgardner's style may prove challenging for Dubois, but the British boxer is determined to use her skills and experience to outsmart her rival.
Dubois' goal is clear: become the undisputed lightweight champion by unifying all three major titles in the division. To achieve this, she will need to navigate a challenging landscape of talented fighters, including Turhan, Harper, Han, and Baumgardner. However, Dubois remains focused on her objective, ready to put in the hard work necessary to succeed at the highest level.
