- Dubois will challenge Han for the WBA lightweight title on 20 February.
- A win would give Dubois three of the division’s four major belts.
- A 2027 undisputed fight with Baumgardner could follow.

## Summary

Caroline Dubois will fight Stephanie Han for the WBA lightweight title on 20 February in El Paso, Texas, in a bout that could unify three of the division’s four major belts. Dubois holds the WBC and WBO titles, while Han is the WBA champion; a win would move Dubois closer to becoming undisputed champion.

The 25-year-old Londoner has 14 professional wins and one draw, and unified her titles by beating Terri Harper in April 2026. Han, 36, is unbeaten with 13 wins and has defended her title three times, including two victories over Holly Holm. A possible future opponent is IBF champion Alycia Baumgardner: if she and Dubois both win their upcoming fights, they could meet for undisputed status in 2027.
