Cecilia Braekhus is inspired by Natasha Jonas, but still wants to fight her.
Norway's Braekhus had been a trailblazer in the sport. Her undefeated run spanned 36 fights and more than 13 years. Between 2014 and 2020 she reigned as the undisputed welterweight champion, winning all four of the major world titles and defending them 10 times.
She first became a unified champion back in 2009 and is a veteran of 28 world title fights, of which she lost only two.
She might be 41-years-old but, after moving up in weight, she is targeting the 38-year-old Jonas as her route back to the top.
