Unified lightweight world championships
Rising star Dubois (12-0-1, 5 KOs) takes on British rival Harper (16-2-2, 6 KOs) in a 10-round world championship unification for the WBC and WBO lightweight titles.
MVP’s WBC champ “Sweet” Caroline fights out of London, younger sister of former IBF world heavyweight champion, Daniel.
The 2020 Olympian made her pro debut in February 2022. She won her first title in her eighth bout in 2023, claiming the IBO lightweight belt. In August 2024, she won the WBC Interim lightweight title, then was elevated to become the WBC lightweight world champion that December.
The 25-year-old southpaw successfully defended her green and gold title three times in 2025 to confirm her place as one of the biggest stars in the sport.
“I’m excited to make this fight,” said Dubois. “This is a massive fight in my career and for British boxing, both a legacy fight and unification. The goal is to become undisputed world champion and this is the first step.”
MVP’s WBO lightweight world champion Terri “Belter” Harper fights out of Doncaster. She won the WBC super-featherweight title in 2020. In 2022, Harper moved up four divisions to 154lbs to win the WBA super-welterweight world crown. In September 2024, she moved down to 135lbs and claimed the WBO lightweight world title.
With that win, she became Britain’s first three-division women’s world champion. Harper made her first title defence at 135lbs in May of last year.
“This fight has been a long time in the making,” Harper said. “I’m grateful to MVP for getting it over the line. I’m excited to be headlining MVP’s first UK show!”
Ellie Scotney vs Mayelli Flores
Undisputed super-bantamweight championships
In the historic double main event, Catford’s unified super-bantamweight world champion Ellie Scotney, 11-0, will face Mexico’s WBA world titlist Mayelli Flores, 13-1-1 (4), in a 10-round undisputed championship clash contested at 122 lbs.
Entering the fight, Scotney is the youngest woman in British boxing history to fight for undisputed, and if she wins, she will become the youngest UK boxer, male or female, in the four-belt era to become undisputed world champion.
MVP’s unified super-bantamweight world champion Ellie Scotney will become the youngest UK female boxer to fight for undisputed – and will become the youngest boxer in UK history, male or female, to become undisputed champion if she wins.
The Catford favourite became IBF world champion in just her seventh pro fight before unifying when she won the WBO title in 2024.
The 27-year-old then claimed the WBC belt on the undercard of MVP’s Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano trilogy fight last July.
“Nothing is like God’s timing,” Scotney, a devout Christian, said. “For that little kid that first glimpsed the stage and stakes that await on Sunday April 5 everything has aligned to this very moment. I’m beyond grateful to MVP for delivering once again, and now it’s my turn.
“Destiny awaits, time to make history in my hometown in front of my very own.”
Mayelli Flores is the reigning WBA super-bantamweight world champion from Mexico City. After an early career highlighted by a narrow defeat in a world title challenge against Yulihan Luna, Flores defeated Nazarena Romero by split decision to capture the WBA 122lb crown last May. The 33-year-old Flores represents Mexico with pride as she continues her rise among the sport’s elite.
“I would like to thank God, MVP and my team for this incredible opportunity,” Flores said. “When I heard the fight was moved to the UK, I agreed without hesitation. We Mexicans show up ready to fight anywhere, mentally and physically ready for war. Ellie Scotney is a great and tough fighter, but I am up for the challenge. A win over Scotney will put me in the history books as Mexico’s first undisputed female boxer in history. I am ready to make history.
“I dedicate this fight to my family and all the boxing fans watching in person and at home.”
Chantelle Cameron vs Michaela Kotaskova
WBO super-welterweight world championship
Joining the card will be MVP’s former undisputed champion, and the only pro fighter to beat Katie Taylor, Chantelle Cameron, 21-1 (8). She fights Czech contender Michaela Kotaskova, 11-0-4 (2). Cameron vs Kotaskova will be a 10-round championship bout for the WBO super-welterweight world title as Cameron aims to win a world championship in a second weight division.
Former undisputed super-lightweight champion, Chantelle “Il Capo” Cameron won the WBC 140lb world title in 2020, unified her titles in 2021, then became undisputed super-lightweight champion in 2022. She successfully defended her crown against Irish legend Katie Taylor in May 2023, while their rematch resulted in a majority decision victory for Taylor.
Cameron returned in July 2024 to win the WBC Interim 140lb title. “I cannot thank MVP enough for this opportunity to become a two-weight world champion,” said Cameron. “When we spoke to Jake and Nakisa [Bidarian] about signing with MVP there were a lot of promises made, and they have delivered on every one of those promises. Fighting for a world title in the UK on Sky Sports is huge for me and my family.
“Sunday, April 5 you are going to see the very best of Chantelle Cameron.”
Michaela Kotaskova is a Czech-born Austrian professional boxer, boxing coach and charity ambassador. She began boxing in 2014 in the Czech Republic while at university, then continued her studies at the University of Vienna while pursuing her boxing career. Between 2017 and 2022, she represented the Austrian national boxing team and became a multiple-time Austrian national champion, then turned professional in 2022. Kotaskova is the WBO’s No 1 contender at 147lbs and No 4 contender at 154lbs.
“I’ve put my blood, sweat, and tears into the sport for the past decade,” she said.” I fear no one, and should not be underestimated. This level of opposition is nothing new to me. I’m ready to take everything she’s willing to give.”
Irma Garcia vs Emma Dolan
IBF super-flyweight world championship
Further down the card is Mexico’s IBF super-flyweight champion Irma Garcia, 25-5-1 (5), who will make a 10-round world title defence at 115lbs to England’s undefeated Emma Dolan, 8-0 (1).
Irma “La Torbellino” García is a professional boxer, attorney, police officer, and member of the Secretariat of Citizen Security of Mexico City. In the ring, she is both a former and current world champion, having previously won the WBA bantamweight world title at 118lbs and now holds the IBF super-flyweight world title.
“I’m proud to make my second title defence with one of the biggest promotions in the world, MVP,” Garcia said. “We know what’s in front of us – this is a serious challenge against an undefeated fighter who’s coming hungry. But my team and I are doing the work, staying locked in, and we’re ready to prove exactly who the champion is. That belt belongs to Mexico, and after this fight, it’s going back home where it belongs.”
Emma Dolan hails from Newark and is the current British and Commonwealth super-flyweight champion. Dolan has climbed up the world rankings with consecutive victories in 2023 that saw her win and defend the Commonwealth 115lb title. She added the British title to her collection in a fight of the year contender against Shannon Ryan in June 2024, and has defended both successfully.
Now the IBF’s No 1 contender, she aims to become the first British woman to win a world flyweight title.
“I’m looking forward to this fight. It’s felt a long time coming but it’s nearly here now,” Dolan said. “I can’t wait to show everyone what Carl [Greaves, her trainer] and I have been working on behind closed doors and bring that title back home.”
Dubois vs Harper and Scotney vs Flores is a Most Valuable Promotions event in association with VIP Boxing Promotions. Ticket details will be announced during the launch press conference on Friday.
