Mikaela Mayer signs promotional deal with Most Valuable Promotions

Mikaela Mayer (22-2, 5 KOs) is the latest fighter to sign a promotional deal with Most Valuable Promotions (MVP).

The company announced her signing via press release and through their social media channels on Friday. Mayer joins a stable of boxers that includes world champions such as Amanda Serrano, Caroline Dubois, Ellie Scotney, and more. The press release did not mention the number of fights that will be part of the deal.

Mayer is the reigning WBO welterweight world champion thanks to a win over Sandy Ryan in 2024. She is also the WBA and WBC super welterweight world champion following her victory against Mary Spencer last year.

Mikaela Mayer and MVP speak on the deal

“I’m thrilled to join Most Valuable Promotions as we continue breaking barriers and elevating women’s boxing to new heights,” said Mayer in the press release. “I’ve always wanted the biggest and best fights, and MVP’s premier roster of women champions creates incredible opportunities to make those matchups happen. I’m looking forward to showcasing my skills on some of the biggest platforms in the sport and working with a passionate, innovative team that believes in the continued growth of women’s boxing.”

“Mikaela is one of the most accomplished fighters in women’s boxing and a proven champion across multiple weight classes,” said Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian, co-founders of MVP, in the same press release. “She has competed on the sport’s biggest stages, faced the best fighters in the world, and continues to push the sport forward. We’re proud to welcome Mikaela to MVP and look forward to building the next chapter of her career together.”

What lies ahead

Mayer signed with Top Rank in 2017 and has spent the entirety of her professional boxing career with that company. She has even been part of the broadcast team for some of their cards. The deal with MVP presents a new chapter in her career and one that will see her continue to fight on ESPN. A new fight date has not yet been announced for Mayer, but the press release claims that she will make her debut in the coming months.
