Ellie Scotney joins MVP's rapidly increasing roster

Ellie Scotney (10-0) has joined the movement and signed with Jake Paul's promotional company, Most Valuable Promotions.

The 27-year-old Londoner will next fight on the Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano trilogy at Madison Square Garden, New York, on July 11.

The unified WBO, IBF, IBO super-bantamweight titlist will defend her belts to WBC champ Yamileth Mercado (24-3, 5 KOs).

"MVP is breaking barriers for women's boxing, and I'm proud to be part of a movement that's creating real change and global opportunities for female fighters," Scotney said.

"This is just the beginning, and I can't wait to show the world what's next.

"Becoming a unified super-bantamweight world champion has been the result of years of grit, sacrifice, and passion - and now, with the backing of MVP, Nakisa Bidarian and Jake Paul, I'm ready to take things to the next level."

Scotney became a European champion in her sixth fight in 2022, then won the IBF world super-bantamweight belt in her very next bout in 2023. She defended that once before adding the WBO bauble to become unified in 2024.

In Scotney's last fight, in January this year, she took long-reigning champ Mea Motu's IBO strap away from her to now hold three of the five world titles.

Paul co-founded MVP along with Nakisa Bidarian and have recently signed a whole host of female stars including undisputed super-featherweight champion Alycia Baumgardner and Briton Ramla Ali.

Three of MVP's stars are IBO champions:

Most Valuable Promotions has also signed unbeaten Spanish star Jennifer Miranda (12-0, 1 KO) to join its ranks.

The Spaniard will fight for the undisputed super-featherweight championship against Alycia Baumgardner (15-1-0, 7 KOs) on July 11 at Madison Square Garden in New York, which can be streamed live on Netflix.

The 38-year-old from Madrid became a Spanish featherweight champion in just her second fight. Although she has never fought for a major title, Miranda has won four 10-rounders by unanimous decision.

Among MVP's ranks are seven-weight world champ Amanda Serrano, one of the sport’s greatest icons, and Shuttetta Metcalf (14-4-1, 2 KO) and Elizabeth Oxhoba (9-0, 5 KO).
