Scotney Emerges Victorious in Epic Battle to Claim UK's Youngest Undisputed Champion Title

In a thrilling 10-round showdown, Ellie Scotney outlasted Mayelli Flores to unify the super-bantamweight world championship titles, earning a unanimous decision victory. This monumental win cements her place in British boxing history as the youngest undisputed world champion, surpassing all male and female boxers in the four-belt era. Flores, determined to become the first Mexican woman to win the undisputed championship, pushed Scotney to her limits in an unrelenting battle. Two judges scored the fight 100-90 in Scotney's favor, while the third judge scored it 96-94. Prior to the fight, Scotney attended church on Easter Sunday morning, seeking divine inspiration before stepping into the ring. The intense battle saw both fighters give it their all, with Flores launching a fierce attack from the opening bell. Scotney, however, found a way to control the chaos, landing crucial shots, including a lead uppercut and a smashing right to the chin. As the fight progressed, Scotney's technical skill shone through, but Flores refused to back down, making it a heart-stopping battle of wills. In the end, Scotney's tidier work and powerful hooks proved to be the decisive factor, securing her well-deserved victory. In a post-fight interview with Sky Sports, Scotney expressed her gratitude, saying, 'I had to go through so many tests just to get in this ring today, and only God brought me through.' She also praised Flores, acknowledging that the scorecards did not do her justice and that she was a 'real champion.'
