Caroline Dubois believes her brother Daniel will emerge as the face of the heavyweight division despite the siblings not speaking for two years.

The WBO and WBC lightweight champion told The Ring that her older brother is positioned to take over as the division's leading name once Oleksandr Usyk retires. Daniel Dubois claimed the WBO heavyweight belt by stopping Fabio Wardley in May and is ranked No. 1 by The Ring.

Caroline and Daniel became the first brother and sister in British boxing history to hold world titles simultaneously. The 25-year-old southpaw holds a 14-0-1 record with five knockouts while her 29-year-old brother stands at 23-3 with 22 stoppages.

"The heavyweight division is probably the best it's been for a very long time since the days of Evander Holyfield, Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis," she said, per The Ring. "Right now, there's some serious, crazy, dangerous names in the mix. There's Moses Itauma, Filip Hrgovic, Agit Kabayel ... and the best thing is that Daniel's up there. He's one of the best names."

Caroline left the family home two years ago following a dispute with their father Stan and has not spoken to Daniel since. The siblings previously trained together under Shane McGuigan before Daniel switched to Don Charles. Caroline has since moved on from McGuigan as well, working with Manny Robles for her most recent fight.

Despite the family rift, Caroline said she remains pleased about her brother's success. "I'm happy to see him kicking ass and doing his thing," she told The Ring.
