Mikaela Mayer and Chantelle Cameron butt heads and get into it before their super welterweight clash tomorrow night.

Mikaela Mayer and Chantelle Cameron meet tomorrow night in an exciting super welterweight clash with the WBC and WBO belts on the line. The fight will headline the MVPW 06 card.

Both women bring a wealth of experience to the ring, and on Saturday night inside Birmingham's bp pulse LIVE arena, expect fireworks.

These fireworks began on Friday at the weigh-ins as the women went head-to-head and got into a shoving match as security forced them apart.

Cameron got on the mic to say, "She ain't intimidating me. All that yapping, getting in my face. Watch now, watch tomorrow". Mayer responded with, "I think she just said I'm too slow, but there's no way Chantelle Cameron is faster than me". Cameron went back with, "Shut your mouth, you're so deluded".

Road to MVPW 06

Mikaela Mayer

The American has a record of 22-2 and represented the USA at the 2016 Olympic Games, although she didn't medal.

Making the transition over to the professional game, Mayer has been almost flawless. Her first loss came against Alycia Baumgardner in a very competitive clash, before dropping an extremely close fight against Natasha Jonas. 

Her most recent form has seen her defeat Sandy Ryan twice, and last time out, she picked up a unanimous decision victory over Mary Spencer.

Chantelle Cameron

Chantelle Cameron's record is nearly identical to Mayer's. She sits at 22-1 and amassed an impressive record of 17-0 before the biggest fight of her life, a match-up with boxing royalty in Katie Taylor.

Taking place in the 3Arena, Dublin, Cameron travelled to enemy territory as a big underdog. Cameron pulled off a huge upset that night in Dublin, handing Taylor her first and only professional loss. The two would rematch, with Taylor getting her hand raised in their second fight.

Cameron will box inside the bp pulse LIVE arena for the third time in her career, where she's gone 2-0.

Remainder of MVPW 06

Caroline Dubois will feature in the co-main event and will look to remain undefeated as she takes on Amelia Moore. The Brit has a record of 13-0-1 and is one of the hottest prospects in boxing today. Moore, on the other hand, is just 4-0. Her last opponent had a record of 6-6, which tells you everything you need to know about why Dubois should run her over.

Jessica Barry will look to extend her winning run to nine straight as she clashes with Reina Tellez. She'll be glad to face someone who isn't Linzi Buczynskyj, whom she's faced in three of her last four fights. 

Terri Harper returns after losing her grudge match with Dubois last time out as she meets Miranda Reyes.
