Dubois Claims Baumgardner is Intimidated by Potential Fight

Caroline Dubois believes Alycia Baumgardner is intimidated by the prospect of facing her in the ring later this year. Dubois, who recently unified the WBC and WBO lightweight world championships by defeating Terri Harper, has been engaging in a war of words with the American boxer. Baumgardner is set to defend her IBF, WBA, and WBO super-featherweight titles against Bo Mi Re Shin in New York. Dubois is confident that she will emerge victorious if the two were to meet, stating that Baumgardner will struggle against Shin. Dubois expressed her desire to see Baumgardner win, acknowledging her as a significant name in the sport, but also emphasized that she is eager to face her in a high-profile match. The Londoner is increasing the pressure on Baumgardner to agree to the fight, claiming that her American rival is hesitant due to fear. Dubois is willing to continue her verbal assault, stating that she is confident in her abilities and will not back down. If the fight with Baumgardner cannot be made, Dubois will consider other options, including a potential match against Elif Nur Turhan, the current IBF champion at 135lbs.
