Mikaela Mayer returns to the Sky Sports team for the BOXXER series | boxing news
Unified World Champion Mikaela Mayer will be part of the Sky Sports Boxing squad for this Saturday’s BOXXER Series show in Coventry.
Mayer joined the pundits at Sky Sports for the Eubank Jr-Williams showdown in February, and is back for fight week as we head into this weekend’s lightweight tournament in Coventry, live on Sky Sports.
The WBO and IBF featherweight champion will withdraw the names in Thursday’s live quarter-final draw and then provide expert analysis at Friday’s weigh-in before commenting on Saturday’s exciting bill.
Mayer defended her world titles with a dominating points win over Jennifer Han last weekend and is relishing her role on the other side of the ropes.
“I will team up with Sky Sports Boxing again as we cover the Boxxer Series tournament this weekend in Coventry,” Mayer said.
“I look forward to providing my analysis on fight night and of course getting back into the arena with the UK fans and all the energy you bring. I miss it and love it!
“See you this week on Sky Sports!”
Boxxer series: lightweights in Coventry
On Saturday, the BOXXER Series tournament heads to Coventry, where eight British lightweights will battle it out in the 3×3 minute fast lap format.
The BOXXER Series awaits as a national platform for unknown names with compelling stories to tell, with a victory in the one-night eight-man tournament bearing the potential to overturn that narrative.
Watch the second BOXXER Series tournament from the Coventry Skydome Arena live on Sky Sports on Saturday 16 April, with Tion Gibbs, Rylan Charlton and Dylan Cheema all in action.
