Jake Paul: Why did Chantelle Cameron, Savannah Marshall, Ellie Scotney and more sign with MVP

Not long after signing, Scotney was sipping filtered water in a luxury vehicle on her way to meet the MVP team in person for the first time. She had thought she’d need to book a taxi at the airport.

One day she was at a New York Knicks game sitting beside Irish icon Taylor, the next she was doing pads with Amanda Serrano at an open workout before joining her new stablemates at a glamorous news conference for Taylor v Serrano 3.

Money and exposure was a big part of convincing fighters to join MVP. An estimated 50m watched Taylor’s light-welterweight title rematch with Serrano on Netflix last November, with the rivals reportedly earning more than £4m each.

“What I liked, which is rare from a promoter, is Nakisa is very transparent,” reveals Scotney.

“He was like, ‘Ellie this is the Netflix show, not all of them are like this’.”

For Bidarian, the pitch was simple – look what MVP did for Puerto Rican Serrano, who went from a couple of thousand dollars per fight to millions in one night.

“We’re not fair-weather friends who show up because something is hot, we put muscle behind it,” he says.

“They want people who want to be involved in big fights,” adds Scotney. “Give you the platform and make the fights with the right amount of money.”

Northampton’s Cameron feels women’s boxing has been left behind in the past 12 months, at least in the UK.

“Fights weren’t happening. Jake Paul’s come along and signed up all the top girls and the fights are there to be made again,” says the 34-year-old, who was previously signed to powerhouse promoters Matchroom and Queensberry.

Bidarian says MVP’s ultimate vision is to bring the fastest growing sector of boxing under one promotional roof.

“What we’re trying to do is bring together a collection of talent that’s never been brought together before, male or female, to enable us to make the best fights possible on a consistent basis under one umbrella,” he explains.
