DUBAI, UAE – November 13, 2026 –Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) today announced the highly-anticipated pound-for-pound rematch between MVP’s #3 ESPN and #2 Ring pound-for-pound boxer, two-division world champion and reigning unified WBO, WBA, and WBC super welterweight world champion at 154lbs Chantelle Cameron (23-1, 8 KOs) v MVP’s #9 ESPN and #5 Ring pound-for-pound fighter, three-division world champion, and reigning WBO 147lb champion Mikaela Mayer (22-3, 5 KOs).
The two stars will meet again in a 10-round unified super welterweight world championship rematch in the co-main event of MVP’s Jake Paul vs. Cédric Doumbé Christmas Eve spectacle on December 24 (Thursday) card at Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai, UAE.
Cameron vs. Mayer 2 follows their thrilling August showdown at MVPW-06 in Birmingham, England, where Cameron earned a unanimous decision victory to claim Mayer’s WBA and WBC titles and unify three world championships at 154lbs. The closely contested battle immediately sparked calls for a rematch from both fighters, setting the stage for another showdown between two of the sport’s most accomplished champions. Cameron enters determined to defend her unified crown and cement her place among boxing’s pound-for-pound elite, while Mayer looks to avenge her defeat and reclaim the titles she lost just four months earlier.
Also joining the card will be MVP’s undefeated U.S. Olympian and amateur world champion Jahmal Harvey (5-0, 4 KOs), who returns against Scotland’s Craig Morgan (15-1-1) in an eight-round lightweight bout at 135lbs.
Chantelle “Il Capo” Cameron, reigning unified WBO, WBA, and WBC super welterweight world champion at 154lbs, ESPN’s #3 pound-for-pound boxer in the world, and former undisputed champion at 140lbs, is one of the most recognized names in women’s boxing. Cameron won the vacant WBC 140lb world title in October 2020 before winning the IBF and Ring Magazine, then WBA titles to become undisputed champion. Cameron successfully defended her titles against Katie Taylor in May 2023, before a November 2023 rematch resulted in an MD for Taylor. Cameron won the WBC interim super lightweight title at 140lbs in her next fight, defending it twice successfully before stepping up to 154lbs to win the vacant WBO super welterweight title in April 2026 on MVPW-01. She most recently faced then-WBC and WBA 154lb champion Mikaela Mayer in a major pound-for-pound clash atop MVPW-06 in August 2026, winning by UD to become a unified champion in a second division. Cameron is the #1 ranked super welterweight in the world by ESPN, and is currently the ESPN #3, Ring #2 and Boxrec #7 pound-for-pound women’s boxer in the world.
Chantelle Cameron said: “I am genuinely excited to box in one of my favourite places on December 24 in Dubai. I cannot thank Jake, Nakisa and Mike enough for this opportunity to box on a huge show. They promised to keep me active in 2026 and my third fight in nine months proves just that. We agreed to the rematch before the first fight, so we both kept our word, and now the rematch is on the biggest stage in boxing “
Three-division champion and reigning WBO welterweight world champion at 147lbs Mikaela Mayer, 2016 U.S. Olympian, jumped out to a 17-0 record to begin her pro career while winning a pair of super featherweight world titles and becoming a pound-for-pound mainstay.
In January 2024, she contended for the IBF welterweight world title against Natasha Jonas, then seized her second opportunity to become a two-weight world champion in September 2024, when she defeated WBO welterweight world champion Sandy Ryan by MD in a Fight of the Year contender before besting her again by UD in a rematch.
Mayer became a three-division champion with a defeat of Mary Spencer in October 2025 to win the WBA, WBC, and WBO super welterweight titles. Mayer is the #2 ranked super welterweight by ESPN, and is ranked the Ring #5 and ESPN #6 pound-for-pound women’s talent globally.
Mikaela Mayer said: “Mayer vs. Cameron was a great fight that I truly hope everyone enjoyed. Although I don’t feel I performed to my highest potential, I’ve been working hard to fix the mistakes I made and I will 100% come back stronger! I’m taking my belts back on December 24.”
Nakisa Bidarian, CEO of Most Valuable Promotions, said: “Chantelle Cameron vs. Mikaela Mayer 2 marks MVP’s latest seismic pound-for-pound clash with two of the world’s top ten fighters meeting again in their prime. Their first meeting just a few months ago was a clear Fight of the Year contender, and both immediately called for the rematch following the fight – a testament to both being willing to take on the hardest challenges. Now the stakes rise even higher for Chantelle as she puts three titles on the line against a hungry Mayer, one of the sport’s biggest faces in her own right and a US Olympian. They are joined by more of MVP’s global Olympians, including USA’s knockout sensation and the future face of the lightweight division, Jahmal Harvey. Topped by an unmissable Jake Paul vs. Cédric Doumbé main event, MVP’s Christmas Eve spectacle only gets bigger and better in Dubai.”
US Olympian and amateur world champion Jahmal Harvey, an Oxon Hill, Maryland native, is a 10-time national champion, 2021 world champion, Continental Championships silver medalist and gold medalist at the Pan American Games. The finish qualified him for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, where he finished as a quarter-finalist. Harvey signed with Most Valuable Promotions ahead of his pro debut – a KO win – on MVP’s Most Valuable Prospects 14 in August 2025, heralded as one of the top prospects in American boxing. He earned a UD win on the main Netflix card of MVP’s Jake vs. Joshua: Judgment Day in December 2025, before earning a TKO win on MVPW-02 in April 2026, and most recently earned his latest statement TKO on MVP’s Serrano vs. Manzur, the first world championship boxing event on TikTok LIVE in August 2026.
Jahmal Harvey said: “I’m delighted to finish the year on another colossal card fighting under the boss, Jake Paul! This time bringing my talents away from the States to a worldwide audience in Dubai! Christmas will come early as I provide another dominant, eye-catching display under the lights on this Christmas Eve Spectacle. This is not to be missed!”
Southpaw Craig ‘The Iceman’ Morgan turned professional in 2018 and his career is blooming since moving to the lightweight division, where he boasts a seven fight unbeaten streak. During his amateur days, the 27-year-old won several Scottish titles, two British Championships and captured a bronze medal at the European Schoolboy Championships. Away from boxing, Morgan works as a personal trainer and lives with his fiancee and their two children, Nova and Cyrus.

The event is presented in partnership with the Dubai Sports Council and the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) as part of a broader cooperation agreement with MVP, further cementing Dubai’s position as a premier destination for world-class sporting events and a growing global hub for combat sports.

About Chantelle Cameron
Reigning unified WBO, WBA, and WBC super welterweight world champion at 154lbs, #3 pound-for-pound boxer in the world, and former undisputed super lightweight champion at 140lbs Chantelle “Il Capo” Cameron is one of the most recognized names in women’s boxing. Cameron made her pro boxing debut in May 2017 and earned her first title honors in December 2017, her fifth pro fight, winning the IBO 135lb lightweight world title by stoppage. In 2020, Cameron moved up to 140lbs to contend for the then-vacant WBC super lightweight world title, defeating Adriana Dos Santos Araujo. Cameron unified her titles against Mary McGee in October 2021, earning a UD win to add the IBF and Ring Magazine titles to her WBC hardware. In November 2022, Cameron defeated Jessica McCaskill to become the undisputed super lightweight champion. Cameron’s undisputed reign came to head against Ireland’s Katie Taylor in May 2023, when she successfully defended her undisputed crown. The win set the stage for the pair’s rematch in November 2023, which resulted in a majority decision for Taylor. Cameron returned to the ring in July 2024, defeating Elhem Mekhaled to secure the WBC interim super lightweight title at 140lbs, which she defended twice in November 2024 and on MVP’s Taylor vs. Serrano 3 in July 2025. Cameron stepped up to 154lbs to claim the then-vacant WBO super welterweight world title with a dominant defeat of Michaela Kotaskova in April 2026 on MVPW-01 before her unified title match against then-WBC and WBA 154lb champion Mikaela Mayer atop MVPW-06 in August 2026, winning by unanimous decision.

About Mikaela Mayer
Three-division champion and reigning WBO welterweight world champion at 147lbs Mikaela Mayer, 2016 U.S. Olympian, jumped out to a 17-0 record to begin her pro career while winning a pair of super featherweight world titles and becoming a pound-for-pound mainstay. Mayer lost her perfect record in a debated 2022 split decision loss to Alycia Baumgardner in a bid for the undisputed super featherweight title. In January 2024, she contended for the IBF welterweight world title against Natasha Jonas. While a Jonas rematch did not materialize, Mayer seized her second opportunity to become a two-weight world champion in September 2024, when she defeated WBO welterweight world champion Sandy Ryan by majority decision in a Fight of the Year contender. Six months later, Mayer bested Ryan by unanimous decision in Las Vegas, putting an exclamation point on their fierce 20-round rivalry.

About Jahmal Harvey
US Olympian and amateur world champion Jahmal Harvey was introduced to boxing at age 13 by his football coach Darrell Davis, who also owned a boxing gym.

By 18, he was training and sparring with Olympians, including Keyshawn Davis and Duke Ragan. That same year, he captured gold at the 2021 Elite World Championships— becoming the first American male to win the world title since 2007, while competing as one of the youngest athletes in the tournament. The next year, he took home silver at the 2022 Continental Championships and continued to dominate at the international level in 2023, winning gold at the Santiago Pan American Games. The finish qualified him for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, where he finished as a quarter-finalist. The 23-year-old Harvey signed with Most Valuable Promotions ahead of his professional debut–a knockout win–on MVP’s Most Valuable Prospects 14 in August 2025, heralded as one of the top prospects in American boxing. He earned a UD win on the main Netflix card of MVP’s Jake vs. Joshua: Judgment Day in December 2025, and then took home a fifth round TKO win on MVPW-02 in April 2026.
