Caroline Dubos has said she is the “baddest woman on the planet” and will prove it on her debut for Jake Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions on Friday.
Dubois (11-0-1, 5 KOs) — the WBC lightweight champion — will face American Camilla Panatta on Dec. 19 on the undercard of Paul vs. Anthony Joshua in Miami.
After signing with MVP last week, Dubois was ushered onto the Paul-Joshua card immediately, having not fought since March.

“I think you’re going to see Caroline Dubois, what she brings, and that’s excitement,” Dubois said at Wednesday’s media workout in Miami.

“It’s a blessing. I sit down and I’m so thankful. Thankful to God, thankful to my brothers and sisters who’ve come out with me, thankful to my team and it’s time for me to shine. Show the world who Caroline Dubois is. I stand alone, I’m happy to do that.”
