Mikaela Mayer and Chantelle Cameron butted heads in their final face-off before Saturday’s light-middleweight unification bout in Birmingham.<\/b><\/p>\n

WBA and WBC champion Mayer and Briton Cameron<\/a> had been cordial during the build-up but tensions spilled over at Friday’s weigh-in.<\/p>\n

As the pair came together to face-off at BP Pulse Arena, Cameron pushed her head into Mayer’s and the American held her ground, pushing back before they ended up side-by-side and exchanging verbal insults.<\/p>\n

“She isn’t intimidating me,” Cameron said after security stepped in. “All that yapping and getting in my face – just watch tomorrow.”<\/p>\n

Mayer, 36, claimed Cameron, 35, had said she would be “too slow”, something the WBO champion dismissed.<\/p>\n

“That’s in your head, you’re deluded. Shut your mouth, you’re so deluded and you’re making things up because you don’t believe in yourself,” Cameron responded.<\/p>\n

“You’re going to get humbled.”<\/p>\n

After being pulled apart for a second time, Mayer added: “I didn’t know this Cameron existed, she’s going to need it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
