Boxing fans brace for a high-stakes clash between Caroline Dubois and Terri Harper on March 23 at London’s O2 Arena. Shane McGuigan, Dubois’ trainer, emphasizes Harper’s approach will dictate the outcome: “If she comes out and genuinely tries to win, she will walk on to something. If she goes negative, it’ll go later.

But I think Caroline stops her.” Mikaela Mayer, three-weight world champion, praises Harper’s work ethic but favors Dubois’ technical prowess: “Her amateur career and sound boxing skills give her an edge. It’ll be a great fight, but I’d bet on Dubois.” Natasha Jonas echoes this sentiment, calling Harper a “top name” but doubting her “pedigree” against Dubois’ experience. Shannon Courtenay highlights tactical discipline: “The fighter controlling tempo and staying composed wins.” Paul Smith predicts a late stoppage for Dubois, stressing her adaptability.
