When Caroline Dubois turned professional at the start of 2022, the Londoner’s team were keen to manage her progression wisely. <\/span><\/p>\n

But just 16 months later, the shackles are off. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The 22-year-old is now targeting a match-up with some of boxing’s biggest names. <\/span><\/p>\n

“By the end of the year I want to face Mikaela Mayer, or maybe even Alycia Baumgardner if she moves up in weight,” Dubois tells BBC Sport.<\/span><\/p>\n

“The lightweight division is ram packed. There are so many people we can make a legacy fight with.” <\/span><\/p>\n

With six straight wins, and five consecutive clinical stoppages, Dubois faces Yanina del Carmen Lescano at London’s York Hall on Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Argentine Lescano, ranked sixth with the WBA, is no pushover, but Dubois is dreaming of bigger things. <\/span><\/p>\n

“I want to be a multi-weight world champion,” she says. “To be somebody who has done something that’s never been done before.”<\/span><\/p>\n
