Shane McGuigan – Dubois’ trainer:
“Anything can happen in a boxing match. It depends how Harper approaches the fight. If she comes out and genuinely tries to win the fight, she will walk on to something. If she goes super negative, it will go a bit later. But I do think Caroline will stop her.”
Prediction – Dubois
Mikaela Mayer – American three-weight world champion:
“I think Harper is a good boxer. You know she’s going to work hard, will do her best and always puts on fights that everyone wants to see.
“She’s challenged herself against some top names so you have to respect her for that. But I don’t know if she has the pedigree to beat Dubois, who has an extensive amateur career and is a very technically sound boxer.
“So if I had to put my money on it, I’d put it on a Dubois win but either way, it’s going to be a great fight and I’m looking forward to it.”
Prediction – Dubois
Shannon Courtenay – bantamweight boxer:
“It comes down to discipline under pressure. The fighter who controls the tempo and doesn’t get emotional will win.”
Prediction – 50/50
Paul Smith – coach and retired boxer:
“I think Dubois wins this one by late stoppage.”
Prediction – Dubois
