Boxing women, Cecilia Braekhus more and more 'First Lady': now the stellar match against Katie Taylor

Cecilia Braekhus is now a benchmark in welterweight. After a brilliant amateur career, once a professional, he imposed his domain in the category. He fought 39 times always winning, 9 before the limit. In the complexity, but it would be better to say in the chaos, of the various acronyms, the Norwegian of Colombian origin has all agreed. How did he do? Simple, he won them all (Wbc, Wba, Ibf, Wbo) becoming the only champion. The last performance in Monte Carlo, where the Colombian-born Norwegian (she was adopted when she was two years old) clearly gained the points on Argentine Noelia Bustos. Tipetto Argentine soon, always at the attack in the attempt – they were – to find cracks in the dam imposed by the champion, made of jabs and combinations of power and speed.

A meeting that perfectly explained the alias of Braekhus: First Lady. Katie Taylor, Irish, former national footballer (also a goal for Italy) is also the first woman. She is also the protagonist of an exceptional journey as an amateur and as a professional. Dominant in light weights, it was clear how the passage in the super light, where she immediately won the Wbo title by beating the Dominican Christina Linardatou Duran, was a step closer to the challenge with the First Lady. If this happens in welters or Braekhus will go down a step it is not yet known. The only thing certain is that the match will take place and the media coverage will be such that it will, for once, be the envy of more than one men's match.
