And after completing a near clean sweep on the scorecards, she said: “I feel like I could have done more, I’d give it like a B.
“But it’s my first time fighting in America, first time being out in Miami and I want to say a massive thank you to everybody in this arena and everybody who’s spent their hard earned money, especially so close to Christmas.
“I’m happy that I could entertain.”
Dubois, 24, scored a huge knockdown in round six with a counter right hook.

But Panatta profited from an extended count from the referee, helping her see the bell.
And Dubois continued her onslaught until the final punch – wobbling Panatta with another lead hook.

Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua – all the info
A true Christmas miracle!
The world will stand still TONIGHT as the face of British boxing, Anthony Joshua, is all set to go up against YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul.
AJ steps in on a month’s notice after Paul’s ‘David vs Goliath’ Gervonta Davis clash was axed due to Tank’s civil suit case.
And Joshua will be desperate not to suffer the same fate as legends Mike Tyson and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, who both lost to YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul.
Particularly as a handsome figure was negotiated to get this Judgement Day deal over the line due to AJ’s DAZN contract.

The pair stole the press conference after a heated exchange but Dubois is ready to let the fight build.
She said: “Not next but definitely down the line.
“We’re still a little bit away from each other, not in terms of skill but in terms of growth in what that fight can be.”
