Three-division world champion Mikaela Mayer has signed with Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions, joining as the company launches MVPW, its new global platform dedicated to women's boxing. Mayer, the reigning WBC and WBA super-welterweight world champion who also holds the WBO welterweight title, represents a significant acquisition for the promotional outfit.

The American star has competed across multiple weight classes, winning world titles at super-featherweight before capturing super-welterweight belts in her third division. Her victory over Mary Spencer in Canada last October marked her second world title in as many weight classes. Mayer's career includes high-profile bouts against top competition, including a contentious decision loss to Alycia Baumgardner at London's O2 Arena in 2022.

"I've always wanted the biggest and best fights," Mayer stated about her move to MVP. The signing positions her to showcase her skills on major platforms while working with a team committed to elevating women's boxing. MVP co-founders Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian praised Mayer as "one of the most accomplished fighters in women's boxing" and emphasized her proven championship pedigree across multiple weight classes.
