Ellie Scotney targets Amanda Serrano fight in 2026 and becoming undisputed champion as she sets goals after three-belt unification win | Boxing News
Ellie Scotney is ready to go to the highest boxing levels.
Last weekend, at Madison Square Garden, she outrained Yamileth Mercado to unify the titles of the WBC world, WBO and IBF Super-Bantamweight on the Undercard de Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano’s Trilogy Fight.
Before the end of the year, the Catford fighter intends to become the undisputed champion, then move to a featherweight afterwards. In fact, she hopes to be able to meet the SERRANO promotional stablemate at 126 pounds.
“She is the best dog,” said Scotney Sky Sports. “Amanda, what she worn for female boxing is obviously under her terms now that she is fighting, whether or not it. Of course, this is a fight I would love. It is a legend.
“To be part of these names and build this inheritance, they are people you need.”
Serrano had increased to 136 pounds to fight Katie Taylor for the Irish star super-light championship. But Puerto Rican is naturally smaller and holds WBO and WBA belts with featherweight. If she has to fight, she is likely to go down.

“She ran to me and said,” Can I have a photo? “” Remember a perplexed Scotney. But with the selfie done, it will be all hostilities now until they have boxed. “I have the impression that it will be done then for sure.
“I think we will watch in November. I can have a Christmas dinner this year.
“Take advantage of Christmas, I will be standing in Feather, and above!”

She expects the next fight to take place in America and plans to continue to start.
“I was able to announce myself on the biggest stages with the most eyeballs, during the event where two legends were locked up for the last time,” said Scotney.
“I did not realize before I watched Katie and Amanda that I was at Madison Square Garden – it was as if it was a ring in the gymnasium for me. I have never been that was lit before. I guess it was a state of flow where I saw nothing other than my opponent.
“To do it on the biggest steps, where the issues are highest and the pressure is at the highest, I could not have asked for a better time to tell myself.”
