Scotney to face WBC featherweight champion Brown
British fighter Ellie Scotney is confirmed to face WBC featherweight champion Tiara Brown in Arlington, Texas on 8 November.
Scottish boxer Ellie Scotney will challenge WBC featherweight champion Tiara Brown at the MVPW-07 event in Arlington, Texas on November 8th. Scotney, currently 28 years old, has vacated her undisputed super-bantamweight title to move up a weight division and potentially become a two-weight world champion. This bout will be the co-main event on the card, alongside four other world title fights.
Headlined by IBF lightweight champion Elif Nur Turhan's defense of her title against Alycia Baumgardner, the event also features a WBO and IBF super-bantamweight title fight between Somali-British boxer Ramla Ali and American Mikiah Kreps. The final fight of the night will see Australia's Skye Nicolson defend her WBC super-bantamweight title against Japan's Miyo Yoshida.
