Chantelle Cameron is squared away to take on Mikaela Mayer in an August 29 ****** le unification in Birmingham, England, and looking towards the fight Cameron tells Sky Sports that she's been putting in all the work behind the scenes to the point where just simply doesn't feel Mayer is a special enough fighter to topple her.
To that end, Cameron says she's anticipating a career-best performance this weekend as everything has been humming in training camp and she doesn't expect anything to change that up come fight night.
"I'm heading into fight week in such a good place – confident and knowing that it's going to take someone really good and special to beat me, and I just don't think that's Mikaela. When I'm thinking like that and acting that out in the gym and everything else, I just know that I'm not going to be denied the victory."
Should Cameron come out on top she'll have a handful of world ****** les, but she says it still likely won't top the feeling of being the only person to hand the legendary Katie Taylor a defeat. So, in that respect Cameron would only rate this as her second-best achievement in the sport. Still, she'll have to handle the business between the bells before she can start counting any of her accolades.

Mikaela Mayer and Chantelle Cameron were part of a long list of women waiting for Katie Taylor to call, but the call never came. It was not a shock when they were both ignored ahead of Taylor's retirement party – in front of 80,000 at Croke Park in two weeks – but a fight between Mayer and Cameron themselves was a nice idea.
This Saturday, in Birmingham, they fight each other with three world-title belts on the line, and it is one of the very best fights that could be made in the women's game. It is an MVP promotion, their second in the UK, and once again the full card is exceptional. This time, American stars face Britain's own in every bout.
Mayer holds the WBC and WBA belts at super-welterweight, and Cameron has the WBO version, which means there will be a decent scuffle at the end between the commissioners in the ring, all desperate to attach their bauble to the champion first.
In an ideal boxing world, Cameron would be getting her third fight with Taylor, and Mayer (who first fought for a world ****** le at super-feather, a full 24lb below this weekend's limit) would be fighting at a lighter weight.
The women's game often throws up odd fights at strange weights, and this is certainly one of the very best ever in that category. The willingness and ability of the top fighters to flip in and out of alien divisions has made the women's side of the sport so competitive.

Caroline Dubois spends some time talking about her disappointment in not being able to secure a ****** le unification fight just yet as she aims to go undisputed, and keeping busy in the meanwhile rather than sitting around and waiting for the big fights to come her way. Dubois would also call out some rivals who she believes to be ducking the smoke.
"It's very disappointing. The goal was to fight either Elif Turhan or Stephanie Han. Unfortunately the Elif Turhan fight fell apart and unfortunately the Stephanie Han fight is something that has to wait, she just fought recently. So, she's resting or recovering and hopefully we can get that fight end of the year, that's the plan. I'm disappointed with Elif. We sent her an offer, she turned it down and, yeah, at the end of the day you can't force someone into the ring."
"There's a few reasons, I'm not going to go into them. At the end of the day, all I can say is the facts. I'm so happy with what we've achieved, I'm so happy for where I'm at, and I'm so excited for the future. And I know another fact is I want to be better…I want to dominate. You have to train to dominate. You have to train, you have to push yourself and I think the definition of insanity is to do the same thing and expect a different result. So if you want something you've never had, you have to do something you've never done.
"Working with Manny Robles now, I've been with him for three weeks now and it's been really good, really positive, great sparring, the work is good…I'm just happy to be in an exciting, booming gym."
"I think she's a coward. At the end of the day I think she knew I was going to be here, she knew that Mikaela Mayer was going to be here — she probably just thought 'nah, I don't want it'. She doesn't want it and I think it's a lame move. You come all the way out to the UK and you don't turn up? You don't want to be in the mix of some big fights? You got a table full of opponents that could possibly be in [with], you're not about it?! I think it's real disappointing and it shows her character."
