Ellie Scotney expresses disappointment over removal from Dublin Card

Ellie Scotney, the promising English boxer, has expressed her disappointment on Instagram after learning that her scheduled fight against Cherneka Johnson on May 20th in Dublin has been canceled. In her post, Scotney said, “I am incredibly disappointed to say that I am now hearing that I will be removed from the May 20th Card in Dublin due to Chantelle Cameron and management insisting to my promoter that I’m not allowed not to be on her undercard because of who trains me.”

Scotney went on to add that she and Cameron had been on two cards together before with no issues whatsoever, and this was patently unfair to her, as she had been preparing for her world title fight.

Scotney’s post has sparked a range of reactions from fans on social media, with some supporting her and others questioning Cameron’s motives. User @AlexMrlynn wrote, “It’s also patently unfair and wrong to Scotney.”

User @RenaudLemieux, wrote, “What’s her problem, Cameron? And why did you guys accept to postpone the fight just because this girl doesn’t like Scotney’s trainer? Why did you let this woman decide like that?”

Another user, @gazza2k15, questioned Cameron’s actions, saying, “Funny that Cameron had no issue with Scotney fighting on the same card last May while being trained by McGuigan, yet now it’s a problem…Who does she think she is?”

User @petera1872 stated, “What’s unfair is @elliescotney_ missing out through no fault of her own.”

However, not everyone is quick to take Scotney’s side, with some fans suggesting that there might be more to the story. User @smithy7773 wrote, “We have one side. I’m doubtful Cameron has the power or the weight to demand Matchroom remove another boxer off the card.”

Professional boxer Ebanie Bridges also weighed in on the controversy on Twitter, saying, “I highly doubt Chantelle Cameron gives a f*ck about Ellie Scotney on her undercard… esp cos not cared before… she’s fighting for undisputed against Katie Taylor what’s Ellie to her?”

The situation remains unclear, and it is uncertain whether Scotney will be given an opportunity to fight at a later date or if she will miss out on this significant opportunity. Regardless of the reasoning behind the decision, it is clear that Ellie Scotney is devastated by the loss of this opportunity and that her fans are equally disappointed to see her dreams of competing in Dublin dashed.
