Jake Paul has thrown down a new challenge for one of his fighters ahead of MVP’s women’s boxing event this Saturday.
Most Valuable Promotions is set to roll out its first MVPW event this Sunday, following the recent partnership agreement with Sky Sports.
The card is headlined by two main events, the first featuring Caroline Dubois and Terri Harper, who will face off for both the WBC and WBO lightweight titles.
The other title fight of the evening sees Ellie Scotney facing Mayelli Flores in a contest that will decide the undisputed super bantamweight champion.
Jake Paul vows to buy Ellie Scotney a car if she wins her fight on Sunday
Ellie Scotney is unbeaten going into her match against Flores and will be aiming to unify the super bantamweight titles at 122lbs.
If she wins, she’ll become the youngest British fighter—male or female—to hold undisputed champion status in the four-belt era, surpassing names like Lennox Lewis and Josh Taylor.
Her promoter, Jake Paul, has promised to buy her a car if she comes away with all the belts this weekend. That offer came after he learned that Ellie currently takes two trains, a tube and a bus just to get to training because she doesn’t drive.
“So you literally spend two hours a day commuting? How do you do that in camp?” Paul asked when he visited her gym ahead of the fight.
Paul later posted: “If Ellie Scotney becomes the youngest male or female undisputed champion in history this Sunday night, then I’m buying her a car. She just needs a license!”
Scotney has become well-liked among British boxing fans, not just for her performances in the ring but also for her down-to-earth nature. She turned pro only four years ago but has quickly made an impression both inside and outside of it.
