Caroline Dubois (13-0-1) retained her WBC title and added the WBO and Ring belts with a decision win over Terri Harper (16-3-2).

That pattern lasted until round six, when Dubois landed a sharp one-two that sent Harper to the canvas. Harper beat the score, but the takedown created clear separation on the cards.
From that point on, Dubois took control of the fight. She dictated distance, got the cleaner shots and forced Harper on the back foot for long stretches.
A clash of heads later opened a cut above Harper’s left eye, and the blood became a factor as the rounds wore on. Dubois remained calm, maintaining her output and avoiding unnecessary exchanges.
Harper had moments, especially with bodywork, but she couldn’t close the gap. The fight went the distance, and Dubois’ activity and accuracy secured the decision.
Dubois predicted a stoppage before seven rounds. It didn’t come, but the takedown and her control of the fight left little doubt on the scorecards. She now holds two belts and the Ring title at lightweight, and she looks firmly in control of the division.
