Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions is on a hunting mission. It continues to spread its wings in women's boxing after declaring the signing of four more female athletes earlier yesterday.
Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) today announced a number of signings. One of them is Denmark’s two-weight world titlist, reigning unified bantamweight world winner and Boxrec’s #1 pound-for-pound female boxer Dina Thorslund (23-0, 9 KOs).
A two-weight world victor and current WBC/WBO/Ring bantamweight winner, Thorslund is the latest big name to sign a deal with MVP as their interest in women's boxing expounds.
Born in Copenhagen, Denmark, Thorslund began her boxing career at the age of 14. She swiftly rose through the ranks, joining the Danish national team before turning professional in 2015 and attaining her debut bout vs. Petra Podráská with an impressive technical knockout.
“Most Valuable Promotions is the future of women’s boxing, and I am so proud to join their roster of world-class female champions alongside Amanda Serrano, Shadasia Green, and Alycia Baumgardner and become MVP’s first signee from Denmark,” said Dina Thorslund. “I have worked incredibly hard to become the unified bantamweight champion and a two-division champion. Now Jake Paul, Nakisa Bidarian, and MVP are providing the opportunity for greater equality and global visibility for female athletes like me. I look forward to making history with MVP,” she said during the signing ceremony.
Other talents that have joined MVP are Ramla Ali, Nat Dove and Naomy Valle.
“MVP is committed to signing fighters who are not only champions in the ring but also game-changers for the sport, and we’re proud to welcome Dina, Ramla, Naomy and Nat to the MVP family,” said Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian.
“Dina is an undefeated two-division world champion and pound-for-pound elite who has dominated in Denmark and is now ready to become an international star.
"Ramla is a global force for change, using her platform to break barriers and empower women worldwide. And Naomy and Nat represent the future—rising prospects with the drive and talent to become a household name.
"Their signings mark a pivotal moment for MVP as we expand our fighter footprint into Europe while continuing to build the strongest women’s roster in boxing. It is all about the W,” they said during the signing of the contacts.
