Tysie Gallagher Joins Jake Paul's MVP in Major British Boxing Move

Tysie Gallagher has signed with Most Valuable Promotions, becoming the latest British boxer to join Jake Paul's promotional company. The 27-year-old super-bantamweight brings a 10-2 record and reigns as British and Commonwealth champion. She joins compatriots Ellie Scotney, Caroline Dubois, Chantelle Cameron and Savannah Marshall under the MVP banner.

Paul and co-founder Nakisa Bidarian praised Gallagher's skill and determination in a joint statement, highlighting her journey from becoming the first-ever female British super-bantamweight champion to reaching top-five world rankings. MVP has made significant investments in women's boxing, positioning itself as a major player in the sport's growth.

Gallagher's career hit a setback in 2023 when she lost a WBO world-title challenge against Segolene Lefebvre. However, she bounced back in September with a points victory over Ellie Hellewell to retain her titles, marking her return after a year-long absence. That layoff followed the tragic murder of her mother-in-law, Diane Cleary, in January 2025.

This signing represents MVP's continued push to elevate British female boxing talent globally. Gallagher now has the platform to pursue her stated goal of becoming world champion while representing Britain on the international stage.
