Who across the world have you found to share with us today, actually not really too far, we’re not going too far across the world, we’re only going over to the uk? Surprisingly, not not not.
As far as you know, the last couple days a british brawler – you found me a british brawler.
I found your brit.
I found your brit uh.
Her name is chantel cameron she’s a 2 8 world champion having held the wbc uh female light welterweight since 2020, and the ibo female lightweight from 2017 to 2019 and as an amateur, she won silver medal in the light welterweight division at the 2010 uh championships in Chester lee hungary and she was a bronze in the lightweight division in the 2011 uh in poland, she’s honestly she’s ranked as the world’s best active female lightweight fighter by box, rack and third best active female uh lightweight by the ring.
This girl has a great record of 13, wins zero losses with seven knockouts.
What i like about this girl, okay, is she’s realized that the the women’s division is very hard to get your title shots.
So she decided with her coach and her team to move up, as you will she’s part of mtk global and she’s trained by jamie moore at vp, uh, vip, gym in athlete and knowing the fact that she wasn’t going to get a shot at taylor.
Her coach and team decided to tell her to move up away and she ended up fighting back in.
It was october, the 4th 2020 against adriana de santos, and she ended up beating her with a unanimous decision to take the title, which is funny because that was her first first match being signed to matchroom.
So she’s recently signed a matchroom contract back in june of 2020, and you know now she’s part of that stable, and you know what that staples got man they shot all these young, hungry kids, who are just you know, relentless great training.
You know their coaching is amazing, um.
She she became the ibo world lightweight champion.
You know in 2017, her nickname is il capo, which is which is kind of weird or or we can go by the other nickname she has, which was uh, wham bam, chan.
So she’s got she’s, got some pretty crazy, nicknames there, but i’ll tell you this girl man.
She holds mandatory status in two weight divisions, firstly to katie taylor at lightweight and secondary to the wbc world super lightweight crown formerly held by jessica mccaskill before she moved up to welterweight to challenge the long reigning queen, cecilia barakas.
So this girl has been sitting around in the backgrounds you know, and she has these mandatory fights all lined up but decided.
You know what uh mccaskill vacated this belt.
I see this easy win.
It’S you know before i get these fights that i want to fight.
Uh, you know against the highly decorated you know varakus and taylor.
She realized she’s gon na have to have some gold around her waist as well.
So what did she do? Her team got together and you know mtk.
They.
They pushed her to go up a weight class and she did, and now she’s, holding the belt and and will be fighting will be fighting next march 20th, which uh i’m very excited to see her fight and defend um, i’m praying for knockout.
This girl.
I’Ve been watching her training videos following her for the last couple of months as she’s.
Coming up to this fight and i’ll tell you her pad work is looking fantastic.
Her combos are flowing perfectly she’s.
Her ankles are great she’s.
Really.
This girl has the ability to really use her jab.
She she has her range.
She knows how to use her range once she gets comfortable.
She flows.
She picks her punches properly and she’s very she’s, a very calculated fighter when you watch her she’s, not the most heavy-handed girl out there, but she is relentless and and when she when she smells that blood, and she knows that you’re going down, she will come in And finish: she has no problem, unfortunately, she’s, not a hundred percent finisher, but you know fifty percent.
Sixty percent.
That’S good! That’S good! You know my hat’s off to your man, she’s a beast! She deserves that that title around her waist uh.
Definitely, i would love to see a fight with her and katie taylor or even mccaskill.
Uh mccaskill was supposed to fight her, but you know decided to vacate that belt.
So we’ll see what happens, but in the future this girl is going to uh she’s going to be up there with those with those greats.
You know the katie taylor is the uh clarissa shields, the cecilia barakas.
You know she’s gon na be up there eventually, guys trust me you’re going to want to watch this woman fight she’s, really good she’s dedicated she’s got the heart.

It’S just a warm up for him.
The seal room thing is going to go quick.
