What Chantelle Cameron said
Cameron returned to winning ways after losing her undisputed crown to Katie Taylor in their May 2023 rematch. Mayer holds a world title and ranks inside the top five pound-for-pound alongside Cameron. Both fighters remain active on the world stage and a unification would settle who sits atop the division.

Cameron's public push for the Mayer fight puts pressure on broadcasters and sanctioning bodies to deliver the contest. Mayer has previously expressed interest in facing elite opponents at multiple weights. The clash would determine the strongest claim to divisional supremacy if it goes ahead.
