Mayer vs Cameron: Terri Harper returns on UK vs USA bill in Birmingham on August 29, live on Sky Sports

Three-weight world champion Terri Harper returns on the UK vs USA bill which is topped by Mikaela Mayer against Chantelle Cameron on August 29.

Harper is back in action against Texan Miranda Reyes, live on Your Site, as British fighters battle American rivals on the Most Valuable Promotions show in Birmingham, with Mayer facing Cameron for the WBC, WBO and WBA belts at the bp pulse LIVE arena in Birmingham.

In her last fight, Harper displayed her skills and bravery in a hard-fought points loss to Caroline Dubois, but the Doncaster boxer can propel herself back into world title contention with a win over Reyes.

"I'm excited for the quick turn around and grateful to be back out on such a great card," said Harper.

"It's an honour to be representing team UK alongside some of the best fighters. It's time to get back to winning ways and push for more world titles."

Reyes is determined to prove she belongs at the highest level after losing on points to Dubois and Stephanie Han, two world champions.

"I went to the UK and fought Caroline Dubois with little to no training in a 10-rounder," said Reyes.

"Today I'm a different fighter, and I'm going up in weight to retire Terri Harper. I'm younger, faster and with a higher IQ, and representing the USA on this stage is motivating."

On the same bill, unified WBC and WBO lightweight world champion Dubois will face the USA's two-time national champion Amelia Moore.

Joining the preliminary card will be MVP's new signing Tysie Gallagher, with an opponent to be confirmed for the super-bantamweight bout.

The unbeaten Gemma Richardson takes on two-time European champion Kirstie Bavington, while Scott Melvin collides with Dylan Cheema in a lightweight rematch.

MVPW-06 UK vs USA is a Most Valuable Promotions event in association with VIP Boxing Promotions.

"The UK and the USA have produced some of the biggest stars and most memorable moments in boxing history, and MVPW-06 UK vs USA brings that rivalry to centre stage," said Nakisa Bidarian and Jake Paul, co-founders of Most Valuable Promotions.

"Terri Harper and Miranda Reyes are both proven world-class competitors with championship aspirations, making this a critical fight in the super lightweight division and another strong addition to a main card composed entirely of UK vs USA match-ups.

"Alongside the return of Tysie Gallagher and two compelling domestic contests battling for Midlands pride in Gemma Richardson vs Kirstie Bavington and the Scott Melvin vs Dylan Cheema rematch, this event reflects the level of talent and competition that MVPW is bringing to Birmingham on August 29, live on Your Site."
