The full fight card is set as Dallas’ Alycia “The Bomb” Baumgardner prepares to challenge for the IBF lightweight title in one of multiple world championship bouts at MVPW-07 in Arlington next month.
In a new co-main event alongside Baumgardner (18-1, 7 KOs) squaring off with champion Elif Nur Turhan (14-0, 8 KOs), Most Valuable Promotions informed The Dallas Morning News on Tuesday the 10-round championship bout between Ramla Ali (11-2, 3 KOs) and Mikiah Kreps (11-0, 3 KOs) for the vacant WBO and IBF super bantamweight titles at College Park Center on Sunday, Nov. 8, has been elevated into the role.
The fight replaces the previously scheduled WBC featherweight title match between Tiara Brown and Ellie Scotney, following Scotney’s withdrawal due to injury.

“While we’re disappointed Ellie Scotney is unable to compete, we wish her a speedy recovery and look forward to seeing her and Tiara Brown back in the ring soon,” Nakisa Bidarian and Jake Paul, co-founders of MVP, said in a statement.
“Ramla Ali now has the biggest opportunity of her professional career against an undefeated Mikiah Kreps.”
Joining the MVPW-07 main card on ESPN will be IBF super flyweight world champion Irma Garcia (26-5-1, 6 KOs) vs. WBA super flyweight world champion Nataly Delgado (21-7-2, 5 KOs) in a 10-round world championship unification bout at 115 pounds.
García, an attorney, police officer, and member of the Secretariat of Citizen Security of Mexico City in addition to her boxing career, is both a former and current world champion, having previously won the WBA bantamweight title.
“Pursuing the unification of the world titles represents a major challenge. We are working with discipline, dedication, and a hunger for victory, determined to come out on top. Opportunities are not something you wait for. You work for them, you fight for them, and you seize them. And we have no intention of letting this opportunity slip away,” Garcia said.

Delgado, a 31-year-old pro boxer from Panama, has faced top competition throughout her career. She won the Interim WBA super flyweight world title in 2025 and made two defenses before defeating then-champion Jasmine Artiga to win the WBA world title at MVPW-04 in June.
“There’s a special meaning behind this next unification bout, and not just because I can be the first Panamanian female boxer to become a unified world champion,” Delgado said. “As the only Panamanian boxing world champion at this moment in time, it is, once again, an opportunity that comes once in a lifetime.”
