Katie Taylor may only have one or two fights left before she retires from boxing, and Caroline Dubois isn't too sure she'll be selected as an opponent before then.

Dubois (10-0-1, 5 KOs) is the current WBC Champion at Lightweight, where Taylor (24-1, 6 KOs) reigned as undisputed titleholder before moving up to 140 pounds.

Taylor, The Ring's No. 2 pound-for-pound fighter, has been one of the flag-bearers of the rise in prominence in women's boxing since she turned professional in 2016 and has been involved in big fights with the likes of Amanda Serrano (47-3-1, 31 KOs), Chantelle Cameron (20-1, 8 KOs) and Natasha Jonas (16-2-1, 9 KOs).

But the Irishwoman turns 39 years old in July and after coming off a gruelling win over Serrano in November, there may not be too many big nights ahead for the Bray-born champ.

Dubois' ascension in the sport has been quick, noting in an interview with The Ring that she wants to be undisputed at 135 pounds by the end of 2025.

She also has her eyes on picking up every belt at Junior Welterweight and Welterweight. That would mean a meeting with Taylor, who may not be fighting in 2026.

Dubois told The Ring: "If the goal is to get undisputed at 135, moving up to 140 is three or four fights away, and that's maybe a year-and-a-half.

"I don't know what Katie Taylor is doing in a year-and-a-half. She might fight before then, it depends how she looks. Katie Taylor is going to be 39 or 40 this year I think, I don't know what her plans are, she can't fight forever. Whether or not we clash, it's really going to be up to her.

"The ball is in her court, fight Caroline Dubois or do something else. She might not wanna look my way. But if it does happen, then I'm here, you know where to find me."

"I see myself maxing out at 147. Maybe I can do 154, I don't know, it would have to be with a good nutritionist. That's three divisions and I want to be undisputed in all of them. I'm definitely going to get bigger, I want to be able to dominate and I see it happening.

"I'm excited, my journey has only just started, I've put no ceiling on me, if I can make an impact on women's boxing then I'll be very grateful. If I turned pro 10 years ago I wouldn't have this opportunity, timing is everything."
