History making boxer retires from the sport with the perfect ending
Cecilia Braekhus brought her boxing career to an end on Saturday night when she beat Ema Kozin in a world title fight.
The pair went head-to-head in Lillestrom, Norway with Kozin making the first defence of her WBC and WBO world super welterweight titles.
After 10 rounds, Braekhus was declared the winner by unanimous decision with scores of 98-92, 97-93 and 96-94 inflicting the second loss of Kozin's career.
This latest win made Braekhus a two-weight world champion after an accomplished reign at welterweight.
From 2014 to 2020, Braekhus was the undisputed women's welterweight champion and became the first woman to hold the IBF, WBA, WBC and WBO world title belts simultaneously which saw her given the nickname 'The First Lady'.
As Braekhus hangs up the gloves for good, she will retire with a record of 39-2-1 (9 KOs) and will be seen as a pioneer in women's boxing which continues to grow from strength to strength.
