Fujimoto got back to his feet but was then hit by a devastating right hand which ended the fight with almost a minute still remaining in the round.
Dubois maintains his unbeaten professional record and the 22-year-old has now knocked out 13 of the 14 opponents he has faced since turning pro in 2017.
"I landed a sweet shot and that was goodnight," Dubois told BT Sport.
"I just thought after the first couple of shots I had to pace myself and let him come to me. I knew I had the power and was really confident in what I was going to do."
Dubois could next face fellow British heavyweight Joe Joyce, who was at ringside for the fight on Saturday.
