Cameron Claims Two-Weight World Championship and Sets Sights on Mayer

Chantelle Cameron made history by becoming a two-weight world champion, securing the vacant WBO super-welterweight title with a unanimous decision victory over Michaela Kotaskova. Following her win, Cameron called for a highly anticipated fight with Mikaela Mayer, facing off with the American star in the ring. Cameron expressed her admiration for Mayer, stating, 'So much respect for Mikaela Mayer, she's a great fighter, I wanted this fight with Mikaela for ages.' Cameron, a former undisputed world champion at 140lbs, stepped up to super-welter for the first time and won with a unanimous decision, 100-90 and 99-91 twice, after 10 three-minute rounds. She applied consistent pressure to her Czech opponent, targeting the body to drain Kotaskova's energy. Cameron's solid performance earned her the win, and she now looks forward to a potential fight with Mayer, saying, 'We've been speaking, we should give the fans a great fight for women's boxing.' In other matches, Irma Garcia defended her IBF super-flyweight belt by defeating Emma Dolan in three rounds, while Shannon Courtenay continued her comeback trail with a win over Sasha Booker in three rounds. Courtenay is now seeking a rematch with Ebanie Bridges, whom she beat in 2021 to win the WBA belt. Other winners included Finnish prospect Teresa Makinen, who preserved her unbeaten record against Chloe Watson, and Elizabeth Oshoba, who handed Chelsey Arnell a third-round stoppage defeat.
