Get ready for an explosive night of women's boxing as two powerhouse champions collide in the ring! WBC lightweight champion Caroline Dubois and WBO title-holder Terri Harper will finally face off in a highly anticipated unification bout on April 5th, marking a significant moment in the sport's history.
This thrilling matchup will be the main event of Jake Paul's MVP (Most Valuable Promotions) debut in the UK, showcasing the growing prominence of women's boxing. But here's where it gets intriguing: the co-main event features Ellie Scotney, who is just one victory away from becoming the fourth undisputed British champion in the four-belt era! She'll be challenging WBA super-bantamweight champion Mayelli Flores Rosquero.
The fight night also includes Chantelle Cameron, aiming to conquer a second weight division as she takes on the unbeaten Michaela Kotaskova for the WBO light-middleweight title. Cameron, a former undisputed light-welterweight champion, has only tasted defeat once, against the formidable Katie Taylor. Meanwhile, Kotaskova boasts an impressive record with 11 wins and two draws.
And this is the part most people miss: Norwich's very own Emma Dolan will step into the ring with a massive challenge ahead of her. She'll be battling the IBF super-flyweight champion Irma Garcia, who has a staggering 35 fights under her belt, compared to Dolan's eight. It's a true test of youth versus experience!
Sky Sports, a veteran broadcaster in the boxing world, has partnered with MVP for this landmark event, marking their return to the sport after a hiatus. This collaboration promises to deliver an unforgettable night of boxing action.
Nakisa Bidarian, CEO of MVP, expressed the significance of this event, emphasizing the platform it provides for women's boxing.
