Kate Scott, the 43-year-old broadcaster known for her work on CBS Sports' UEFA Champions League coverage, is set to lead the punditry team for DAZN's broadcast of the Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk heavyweight rematch on December 21. The event will also feature Ade Oladipo as host, with Barry Jones and Darren Barker providing expert analysis, and Adam Smith as lead commentator.
Scott, born and raised in Manchester, began her career as an intern at Deutsche Welle in 2005 before moving to Sky Sports News in Germany and later returning to the UK to join Sky Sports. In 2020, she became the face of CBS Sports' UEFA Champions League Today show. Her media success has reportedly earned her a net worth of around £2 million.
Earlier this year, Scott married boxing trainer Malik Scott, a former heavyweight fighter with a professional record of 38-3-1 who retired in 2016. The couple held an intimate ceremony in Malibu Hills, California, where Scott surprised her husband with a wedding cake modelled after the ring from his childhood gym in North Philadelphia, a gesture that moved him to tears.
Scott's involvement in boxing extends beyond her marriage; she has hosted several top boxing events in recent years. The upcoming Fury-Usyk rematch sees Fury attempting to avenge his defeat by Usyk in May, with a potential future showdown against Anthony Joshua also on the cards.
