Who is Chantelle Cameron? Background, record, championships, biggest wins of Katie Taylor's next opponentDAZN

The undisputed women's super lightweight champion Chantelle Cameron has already found herself in the good books of many boxing fans. 

Following the withdrawal of Amanda Serrano from her rematch with Katie Taylor, Cameron took to social media and called out Taylor for a clash in Dublin on Saturday, May 20. 

As expected, Taylor accepted the challenge and will now attempt to become a two-weight undisputed champion against a difficult opponent. 

For Cameron, the odds are stacked against her. It will be a hostile atmosphere inside the 3Arena come fight night, but currently full of confidence after beating Jessica McCaskill in her previous outing, the British fighter will be looking to spoil Taylor's homecoming party. 

DAZN takes a look at the career of Cameron ahead of this huge fight below.

For Chantelle Cameron, her first world title challenge had controversy before the first bell after her opponent, Adriana dos Santos Araujo, failed to make weight, meaning that the vacant WBC women's world super lightweight would only be on the line for Cameron. 

The fight, which took place at the Marshall Arena in Milton Keynes, saw Cameron use her jab to set-up powerful combinations which was a pattern repeated throughout the 10 rounds. 

Cameron's dominance was reflected on the judges' scorecards with all three scoring the fight 100-90 and saw the Northampton fighter crowned the WBC women's world super lightweight champion.

On the undercard of Dmitry Bivol vs. Gilberto Ramirez, WBC and IBF women's super lightweight champion Chantelle Cameron looked to become the undisputed title holder against the accomplished Jessica McCaskill. 

With McCaskill the undisputed champion at welterweight, many expected it to be a tough test for Cameron, but what transpired was the complete opposite. 

Sticking to a well thought out gameplan, Cameron once more used her jab to set up combinations and comfortably set the tempo for the fight. 

McCaskill started to find her range in round five, but it was too little, too late for the American with Cameron winning the fight via unanimous decision. 

This performance saw the 31-year-old crowned the undisputed champion at super lightweight and become the first British woman to achieve this feat.
