Following her intense battle for the undisputed championship against Ellie Scotney, former WBA super-bantamweight world champion Mayelli Flores has inked a deal with Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions. Similarly, Irma Garcia, who successfully defended her IBF super-flyweight title by knocking out Emma Dolan, has also joined the MVP roster. They are accompanied by unified light-flyweight champion Evelin Bermudez, Mexico's WBC light-flyweight titleholder Lourdes Juarez, and American bantamweight Brittany Sims in making the move to MVP.
A native of Mexico City, Flores stands at 4'11" and has established herself as a formidable force in the ring, known for her relentless pressure and high-volume punching. With a career spanning over eight years, Flores has built a reputation for her toughness and endurance. Garcia, on the other hand, is a two-time world champion, having won the WBA bantamweight title and currently holding the IBF super-flyweight championship.
In her most recent bout, Garcia defeated Emma Dolan via third-round TKO, knocking her down twice in the process. Garcia expressed her gratitude towards MVP, stating that being part of their roster would help her achieve her goal of unifying the world titles.
The signings of these athletes mark a significant milestone for MVP, as the promotion continues to cement its position as a leading force in women's boxing. According to Nakisa Bidarian and Jake Paul, co-founders of MVP, these signings represent a major step forward in establishing MVP as the global home of women's boxing, providing a platform for elite talent to showcase their skills and creating the matchups that fans want to see.
