Scotney Johnson Fight

Ellie Scotney says her nan will have the best seat in the house when she aims to unify the junior featherweight division against France’s undefeated titleholder Segolene Lefebvre at the AO Arena in Manchester this Saturday on DAZN.

Scotney, 26, of Catford, U.K., will fight in Manchester for the first time when she meets Lefebvre. Scotney (8-0, 0 KOs) won her version of the title against Australia's Cherneka Johnson on a memorable night at Wembley Arena last June and proudly raced to her super-fan nan Eileen.
