Which world titles do Chantelle Cameron and Caroline Dubois hold?
Chantelle Cameron holds the WBO super-welterweight title, won on 5 April 2026. Caroline Dubois holds the unified WBC and WBO lightweight titles, taking the WBO belt from Terri Harper by decision the same night. The American Mikaela Mayer holds the WBA and WBC titles at Chantelle Cameron's weight, and stands between her and all three.
Each division has four world titles. This is where they sit in the two divisions these champions box in.
| Division | WBA | WBC | WBO | IBF |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Super-welterweight, 154lb | Mikaela Mayer (United States) | Mikaela Mayer (United States) | Chantelle Cameron (Britain) | Held elsewhere |
| Lightweight, 135lb | Held elsewhere | Caroline Dubois (Britain) | Caroline Dubois (Britain) | Held elsewhere |
What are the weight divisions in women's boxing?
A division is an upper weight limit a boxer has to make to compete in it. Chantelle Cameron holds a world title at super-welterweight, 154lb, called junior middleweight in the United States. Caroline Dubois holds hers at lightweight, 135lb. Terri Harper boxes at super-lightweight, 140lb, on the 29 August card in Birmingham. Whichever division they box in, women's world title bouts are usually fought over ten rounds of two minutes.
What is a unified champion in boxing?
A unified champion holds more than one of a division's four world titles, and the complete set is all four at once. Caroline Dubois is unified at lightweight, holding the WBC and WBO belts, with the other two held elsewhere. At super-welterweight, three of the four titles sit with Chantelle Cameron and Mikaela Mayer and the fourth is held outside their bout, so that division stays short of the full set whatever happens in Birmingham.

Frequently Asked Questions
Four, one from each of the sport's main sanctioning bodies: the WBA, the WBC, the WBO and the IBF. A boxer holding more than one of them is unified, and holding all four at once is the complete set. At super-welterweight, Chantelle Cameron holds the WBO title and Mikaela Mayer holds the WBA and WBC.
Ten rounds of two minutes is the usual distance for a women's world title fight, against twelve rounds of three minutes in the men's game. Chantelle Cameron's and Caroline Dubois's world-title bouts on the 29 August card in Birmingham are both scheduled over ten rounds.
Caroline Dubois holds the WBC and the WBO lightweight world titles. Lightweight is the 135lb division, and holding more than one of its world belts makes her a unified champion rather than the holder of all four. She won the WBO title from Terri Harper by decision on 5 April 2026.
Terri Harper lost the WBO lightweight title to Caroline Dubois by decision on 5 April 2026. Caroline Dubois still holds it, alongside the WBC lightweight title. Terri Harper boxes on the 29 August card at bp pulse LIVE in Birmingham, a division higher at super-lightweight, which is 140lb.
Yes, for some divisions. Super-welterweight in Britain is junior middleweight in the United States, and both mean 154lb, the division in which Chantelle Cameron holds a world title. Super-lightweight and junior welterweight are two names for the same 140lb division. The weight limits are identical either way.
Chantelle Cameron vacated a WBC title in protest at not being allowed to box under the same rules as men, asking to fight three-minute rounds instead of two. The WBC holds to the two-minute round. She then won the WBO super-welterweight title over three-minute rounds on 5 April 2026, the first women’s world title fight in Britain at that distance.
