Ellie Scotney Faces Mayelli Flores for Undisputed Super-Bantamweight Crown in London

The bout crowns MVP’s first all-female card under a new Sky Sports deal.

Overview

  • Scotney, 11-0 with the WBC, IBF and WBO titles, meets WBA champion Mayelli Flores on Sunday at Olympia in London, with coverage on Sky Sports in the UK and ESPN+ in the U.S.
  • A victory would make the 28-year-old the youngest Briton of the four-belt era to hold all major titles in one division.
  • Jake Paul pledged on X to buy Scotney a car if she becomes undisputed after learning she still takes two trains, a tube and a bus to reach the gym as she works toward a license.
  • The matchup is part of MVPW-01, Most Valuable Promotions’ inaugural all-female event, following the company’s broadcast partnership with Sky Sports.
  • Trainer Shane McGuigan warned that Flores brings a hard, high-output style and said this could be Scotney’s final fight at 122 pounds before moving up in weight.
