Fighter Matchup and Styles

Chantelle Cameron (England, orthodox, age 34, 5’8″ / 173 cm, reach 69″ / 175 cm, fighting out of Northampton) is a former undisputed super lightweight world champion (140 lbs) stepping up two weight classes. She is an elite pressure fighter with strong volume, body work, and proven championship pedigree.

Michaela Kotaskova (Czech Republic, fighting out of Vienna, Austria, age 34) is an undefeated prospect with regional title experience (including WBF World Welter). She relies on durability, work rate, and volume but faces a massive step-up in class and physicality.

This is an elite veteran vs. undefeated regional contender clash with the WBO belt on the line. No prior head-to-head. Cameron fights in front of a home UK crowd on a high-profile MVP card, while Kotaskova travels as the heavy underdog.

Fight History Summary

Cameron (pro since 2017) boasts world-title experience against the very best (including a win and competitive loss to Katie Taylor) and has dominated at 140 lbs before this calculated move to 154 lbs. Kotaskova (pro since 2022) has built a perfect record through European regional circuits, claiming minor belts but has never faced anyone near Cameron’s caliber or power. This is the biggest test of Kotaskova’s career by a significant margin.
