Caroline Dubois Faces Miranda Reyes in Buatsi-Azeez Undercard Showdown
London's unbeaten lightweight sensation, Caroline Dubois, is set for an intriguing bout against American contender Miranda Reyes this weekend. The ten-round clash will serve as a supporting feature to the Joshua Buatsi-Dan Azeez WBA light heavyweight title eliminator at the OVO Arena Wembley in London. Dubois, with an impressive record of 8-0 and 5 knockouts, has quickly risen as a future star in the sport. The 23-year-old southpaw's potential has made it challenging to secure opponents, leading to this weekend's matchup against Houston's Reyes (7-1-1, 3KOs), who has won her last two fights. Scheduled while Dubois awaited a shot at the vacant IBF lightweight title, this bout provides her with an opportunity to showcase her skills before a potential title fight. The IBF ordered a matchup with Chesire's Rhiannon Dixon (9-0, 1KO), but Dixon will instead vie for the vacant WBO title against Karen Elizabeth Carabajal. The IBF and WBO lightweight titles were recently vacated by Ireland's Katie Taylor, a two-division undisputed champion. With a win on Saturday, Dubois, the younger sister of former WBA 'Regular' heavyweight titlist Daniel Dubois, will look ahead to the IBF's next instructions and potentially add the IBO title to her collection. In her last outing, Dubois went the distance for the first time, securing a decisive victory over Magail Rodriguez. As the excitement builds for this weekend's clash, the spotlight remains on Dubois's ascent in the lightweight division. #DuboisReyes #BuatsiAzeez #LightweightShowdown #BoxingTitleHunt
