Cameron defeats Mayer to capture the WBA Super Welterweight World Title – World Boxing Association

In a thrilling showdown in Birmingham, England, hometown star Chantelle Cameron delivered a commanding performance to become the new World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Welterweight World Champion, defeating talented American Mikaela Mayer by unanimous decision.

The judges’ scorecards reflected the British fighter’s control throughout ten hard-fought rounds, with scores of 97-93, 97-93 and 96-94, sending the crowd inside the British venue into celebration. Cameron now holds the WBA, WBC and WBO titles.

From the opening bell, Cameron executed a calculated and suffocating game plan. Applying relentless forward pressure, the new champion consistently closed the distance and neutralized Mayer’s reach advantage, cutting off the ring and landing punishing shots to the body to slow the American’s movement.

Although Mayer leaned on her technical skills and answered with sharp counterpunching combinations from mid-range, Cameron’s relentless pace and the power behind her heavier punches ultimately proved decisive and swung the championship rounds firmly in her favor.
