Chantelle Cameron will defend her unified super welterweight titles against Mikaela Mayer on Dec. 24 in Dubai, the official co-main event of Jake Paul vs. Cédric Doumbé.
Most Valuable Promotions announced the rematch Friday. It is scheduled for Thursday, Dec. 24, at Coca-Cola Arena, a 10-round championship bout at 154 pounds, the promotion's release said, with Cameron's WBA, WBC and WBO titles on the line. The Ring, announcing the same booking, billed her as the Ring and unified junior middleweight champion. MVP CEO Nakisa Bidarian said she "puts three titles on the line." Cameron is 23-1 (8 KOs) and Mayer is 22-3 (5 KOs), figures listed by MVP, ESPN and The Ring.
Cameron won the first fight by unanimous decision on Aug. 29 at bp pulse LIVE in Birmingham, scored 97-93, 97-93 and 96-94, as ESPN, Sky Sports and others reported. After the fight, Mayer called it a "little back yard" decision, a remark Sky Sports and The Ring both recounted. She later apologized. ESPN reported the apology, and Mayer told Sky Sports she had "acted in a way that I shouldn't have."
ESPN reported that talks between Cameron and Claressa Shields did not reach a deal. The Ring also described those talks as having failed. The rematch with Mayer is what got signed.
The undercard also adds Jahmal Harvey (5-0, 4 KOs) against Scotland's Craig Morgan (15-1-1) in an eight-round lightweight at 135 pounds, per MVP and Sky Sports. The Ring reported that Tamm Thibeault will make her first IBF and WBO middleweight title defense on the card, against an opponent to be named. That booking is not in MVP's written release.
Tickets go on sale Sunday, Nov. 15, at 12 p.m. GST (midnight PT), with a presale beginning Saturday, Nov. 14, at the same hour, MVP said. We have already covered the Paul-Doumbé purse-bet exchange and the addition of Overeem vs. Manuwa on this card.
