Caroline Dubois defeated Terri Harper by 10-round unanimous decision, with scores of 98-91, 98-91, and 97-92, on Sunday, April 5, 2026, at Olympia in London, to retain her WBC lightweight title and add the WBO and Ring belts.
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).
The opening rounds were quiet. Dubois edged them on activity, stepping forward behind her jab while Harper circled and picked single shots.
That pattern held until round six, when Dubois landed a sharp one-two that sent Harper to the canvas. Harper beat the count, but the knockdown created clear separation on the cards.
From that point, Dubois took control of the fight. She dictated range, landed the cleaner punches, and forced Harper onto 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 stayed composed, maintaining her output and avoiding unnecessary exchanges.
Harper had moments, particularly with body work, but she could not close the gap. The fight went the distance, and Dubois’ activity and accuracy secured the decision.
Dubois had predicted a stoppage before seven rounds. It didn’t come, but the knockdown 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 charge of the division.
