The WBO champion made a successful defence of her 135lb title in Doncaster on May 23 and immediately called out the undefeated Dubois for an all-British unification.
Terri Harper said she has received a contract offer for a unification clash with WBC champion Caroline Dubois — but it did not include a date nor a venue.
The WBO champion made a successful defence of her 135lb title in Doncaster on May 23 and immediately called out the undefeated Dubois (11-0-1, 5 KOs) for an all-British unification.
Now the 28-year-old has revealed that there has been some movement on that fight, but the key details in the contract from Dubois’ promoters are still missing.
And Harper has called on Boxxer boss Ben Shalom to "sort it out" after a period of what she described as "radio silence" on the deal to face the southpaw.
Speaking to IFL TV she said: “We had the Dubois contract sent through — no date, no venue.
“So it has been back and forth, then we had radio silence from Ben. Obviously I think everything is up in the air with Boxxer who are obviously not with Sky Sports any more.
“My manager has been constantly messaging Ben asking, 'What’s new, what’s happening? Again, radio silence. Hopefully we get some clarification soon. I’m in the gym just ticking over and waiting for the phone to ring.
“Sort it out. It’s just frustrating. I get that there’s a lot more to it and he’s under a lot of stress at the minute, but we are here and we are waiting for the fight. If this fight doesn’t happen it’s down to Ben.”
When asked whether or not she would consider taking a different fight with little progress in the Dubois talks, Harper added: “In my head it’s just about Dubois.
“It is big fights now, that’s what I want. I’ve had two southpaw fights, two southpaw camps preparing for this fight. That’s the fight that makes sense. Caroline has been calling me off for long enough now so I think it’s the right fight to make.”
