Caroline Dubois may finally have the chance to settle the lingering tension with Turkish world champion Elif Nur Turhan now that both athletes have entered the same promotional stable, Most Valuable Promotions (MVP). The British lightweight star, who already holds contracts with MVP, previously voiced her disappointment after talks to arrange a unification bout for the lightweight division fell through. Those negotiations, which once seemed tangled by competing promoters and differing market interests, could now become straightforward since both Dubois and Turhan are represented by the same company, co‑owned by internet personality Jake Paul and former professional boxer Nakisa Bidarian. Dubois, an unbeaten British fighter who currently carries both the WBC and WBO lightweight titles, is slated to defend her belts against American contender Amelia Moore.
The fight will take place on the undercard of the highly anticipated Mikaela Mayer versus Chantelle Cameron clash, scheduled for August 29 at Birmingham’s bp pulse LIVE arena. The entire main card has been marketed as a United Kingdom versus United States showdown, and the event will be broadcast live on Sky Sports.

Elif Nur Turhan, who also boasts an unblemished record of 14 wins, captured the IBF lightweight crown after delivering a spectacular stoppage against Brazil’s Beatriz Ferreira. Since winning the belt, Turhan has successfully defended it against challengers Gabriella Tellez and Taylah Gentzen, reinforcing her reputation as a fearsome puncher and a relentless pressure fighter.
Her style, characterized by aggressive forward movement and high‑volume punching, has earned her the nickname “The Golden Turkish Warrior" among fans and commentators. MVP co‑founder Nakisa Bidarian praised Turhan’s addition to the roster, stating: "Elif Nur Turhan is an undefeated world champion, a tremendous puncher, and now the first Turkish fighter to join the MVP lineup.
The Golden Turkish Warrior is one of the most exciting fighters in boxing given her immense punching power and her relentless aggressive, pressure‑heavy style. Signing Elif will allow us to create some of the most thrilling match‑ups in the sport. We look forward to welcoming her to MVP and giving her the platform to become one of the biggest stars in women’s boxing as we continue building MVPW into the premier global home for the sport." The convergence of Dubois and Turhan under one promotional banner has sparked speculation among boxing analysts about a potential clash between the two.
Both athletes are undefeated, possess complementary skill sets, and share a hunger for high‑profile fights that could elevate the visibility of women’s lightweight boxing on a global scale. A unification bout would not only settle personal rivalry but also consolidate three of the four major lightweight titles—WBC, WBO, and IBF—into a single champion, a scenario that has been elusive in recent years.
Beyond the Dubois‑Turhan storyline, the MVP event in Birmingham will feature several other notable fights and storylines. Mikaela Mayer and Chantelle Cameron are set to meet in what promoters have billed as an "epic unification clash," with both athletes holding world titles in adjacent weight classes. The card also includes a bout featuring rising American prospect Amelia Moore, who will test Dubois’ mettle and potentially earn a shot at the unified lightweight crown. The promotion’s broader schedule includes a series of high‑stakes match‑ups across the sport.
Headlines such as "Will Ryan Garcia underestimate Conor Benn?" and "Tyson Fury versus Anthony Joshua negotiations enter a critical week" dominate boxing news cycles, highlighting the intense activity surrounding heavyweight and welterweight divisions. Meanwhile, other fighters like Mikie Tallon are eyeing spots on undercards for marquee events, and veteran trainer Joe Gallagher has voiced confidence that the Fury‑Joshua showdown could soon be staged in the United States. For fans eager to watch MVPW‑06, the event will be available live on Sky Sports on August 29.
Those without a traditional Sky subscription can opt for streaming options that do not require a long‑term contract, ensuring broader accessibility for an international audience. The promotion encourages viewers to use Chrome for the best streaming experience, citing compatibility with their video player technology.
In summary, the signing of Elif Nur Turhan by MVP not only expands the promotion’s international footprint but also opens the door to a potential high‑profile encounter with Caroline Dubois. Both fighters bring undefeated records, world championship pedigree, and a willingness to engage in exciting, pressure‑filled bouts. As the August 29 event approaches, the boxing community will be watching closely to see whether the long‑awaited rivalry will finally materialize, potentially reshaping the landscape of women’s lightweight boxing and delivering a compelling narrative for fans worldwide.
