Braekhus Beats Sagaydakovskaya Via UD
World Boxing Association (WBA) World Female Welterweight Super Champion Cecilia Braekhus scored her 34th victory by defeating challenger Inna Sagaydakovskaya via unanimous decision to retain her title.
The bout will took place at the Olympic Stadium in Moscow the pre main event to WBA Super World Cruiserweight Champion Murat Gassiev going against Oleksandr Usyk in the World Boxing Super Series (WBSS) final.
Braekhus appeared to have very few issues with the Russian challenger in the bout, as she gracefully boxed her way to the unanimous decision while perhaps letting up on Sagaydakovskaya in the late rounds, where Braekhus had her hurt and reeling.
Braekhus is staying very active, as she was just coming off of a unanimous decision victory over Kali Reis in May where she became the first female televised on an HBO boxing broadcast.
Stay tuned for the next move of the “First Lady” as she is really growing in popularity globally with each and every fight.
