Scotney, who remains undefeated in 11 professional boxing outings, secured the undisputed title with her win over Flores, multiple reports indicate. She had previously won the IBF super bantamweight title three years ago by defeating Cherneka Johnson. Last year, she signed a lucrative deal with Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions, which has boosted her profile in the sport.
The fight with Flores was originally scheduled for November but was postponed due to Scotney's injury, though the specific nature of that injury has not been disclosed. To train for the bout, Scotney undertook an unconventional commute to Shane McGuigan's gym in Kent, taking two trains, a tube, and a bus because she cannot drive, according to Daily Mirror - Main. Before the match, Jake Paul promised to buy Scotney a car if she became the youngest undisputed champion in history by defeating Flores, though she needs a license.
I get two trains, a tube and a bus.
It is unclear whether Paul has followed through on this promise or what type of car was offered. Additionally, the official judges' scores or method of victory in Scotney's fight against Flores have not been confirmed, and detailed comparisons of her age to previous UK champions are not available.
Because I can't drive. I'm going to be the first person to be undisputed that's not got a driving license or a stoppage at the minute. We're doing some Guinness Book of Records here.
I gets hard. I have this rule. The more fights I'm having I'm pushing the week back, so I allow myself to have an Uber from like five weeks out. You've gotta stay humble! I keep saying next camp, next camp, Shane (trainer Shane McGuigan) has teased about potentially moving, so I'm gonna have to get my driver's license.
If Ellie Scotney becomes the youngest male or female undisputed champion in history this Sunday night, then I’m buying her a car. She just needs a license!
It'll mean everything. This is the pinnacle that I'm boxing for. It is everything you want in boxing and it awaits. It's been a long journey and God willing o
