Light Middleweight Title Rematch Fight Added to Jake Paul Card

Chantelle Cameron WBO Boxing

CHANTELLE Cameron’s defence of her light middleweight title will continue on 24 December, on the undercard of Paul v Doumbe.

The Briton beat the American Mikaela Mayer in August in a bitterly-contested bout that ended with a unanimous decision, which Mayer disagreed with and led to another confrontation between the pair.

Cameron confirmed that a rematch was agreed before the first fight took place, with this bout now arguably more intriguing given the nature of Mayer’s defeat.

Most Valuable Promotions, co-founded by Jake Paul, has confirmed that this will be the co-main event at the Coca Cola Arena in Dubai.

The 35-year-old Cameron currently holds the WBA, WBC and WBO belts, and will be gunning for the 24th victory of her 25-fight career.

Her sole loss came against the legendary Katie Taylor three years ago, incidentally also in a rematch after the Briton had beat Taylor just months earlier.

Despite most focus on the night belonging to Youtuber Paul, this will arguably be the most important bout of the night, with the loser potentially seeing their hopes of title success fade forever.
