Ellie Scotney stunned the boxing world on Easter Sunday, outworking Mayelli Flores for a unanimous decision after ten relentless rounds. The Catford native secured the undisputed super-bantamweight champion status, pocketing four world titles and becoming Britain’s truly youngest holder of the quartet in the four‑belt era. She later quipped, “Surely I get fighter of the year in the ring!”

Preparation proved brutal. Six weeks out, Scotney tore a calf muscle, limiting her running, and later suffered a nerve flare in her arm and a tight weight cut to super‑bantamweight. She described the fifth‑round calf spasm and exploding quads as “a long night” of standing against Flores’ nonstop pressure, yet she seized momentum in round six to clinch the win.

With only twelve professional bouts, Scotney eyes the next challenge, eyeing a step up to featherweight where Amanda Serrano, Tiara Brown and Nina Meinke already hold world belts. She insists a fresh title clash would “light something in me,” promising to sit down with her team before plotting the next move. The victory cements her status as a modern pound‑for‑pound force.
