Cameron vs Mayer Headlines All-Female Card in Birmingham — While Itauma Meets Hrgovic Across Town
On Saturday, August 29, 2026, British boxing serves up a split-screen kind of night. In Birmingham, Chantelle Cameron and Mikaela Mayer headline an all-female card with three world titles on the line. In London, heavyweight prospect Moses Itauma faces his toughest test yet against Filip Hrgovic at a sold-out O2 Arena.
Mayer, a three-division world champion from the United States, fights for the first time under Most Valuable Promotions — the promotional outfit co-owned by Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian — when she steps in against Cameron in the main event of MVPW-06 at the bp pulse LIVE arena (Most Valuable Promotions). The card streams live on Sky Sports.
Cameron brings a record of 22 wins and 1 loss, with 8 knockouts. She unified the light-welterweight division in 2022 — meaning she held more than one of the four major world belts simultaneously — and in April she beat Michaela Kotaskova for the vacant WBO light-middleweight title (a division also known as super-welterweight) to become a two-weight world champion. Cameron is best known for handing Katie Taylor the first professional defeat of her career in Dublin in May 2023, though Taylor avenged that loss five months later.
Mayer, at 22-2 with 5 knockouts, predicted her clash with Cameron could be Fight of the Year (Yahoo Sports). The winner will hold three of the four major belts at super-welterweight; the IBF title sits with Oshae Jones.
The undercard features Britain's Caroline Dubois, who beat Sandy Harper in April to become a unified champion at lightweight (135 pounds). Dubois carries a record of 13 wins, 0 losses, and 1 draw. She defends against unbeaten American challenger Amelia Moore, who enters with a modest 4-0 record and 1 knockout. Dubois has her eyes on a broader prize: she is targeting IBF champion Elif Nur Turhan and WBA champion Stephanie Han as she works toward becoming an undisputed champion — the status of holding all four major belts in a single division.
A further down-the-line subplot: a potential rivalry between Dubois and fellow champion Alycia Baumgardner has been discussed as a possible blockbuster showdown.
Meanwhile, five days from now at The O2 Arena in London, Moses Itauma faces Croatian heavyweight Filip Hrgovic on a Queensberry Promotions card headed by Frank Warren (ESPN). Warren confirmed the event is sold out. That fight broadcasts live on DAZN pay-per-view.
For fans, the appeal is straightforward: two major cards on one night, with women's boxing taking centre stage in Birmingham while heavyweight ambition plays out in London.
