Almost seven months later, Cecilia Braekhus is just as sure Jessica McCaskill didn’t do enough to beat her in their welterweight title fight.
Braekus believes she should’ve won their 10-round championship match August 15 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. None of the judges agreed with the former champion’s assessment of their closely contested fight, which she lost by majority decision.
“I think everybody knows what I think about the scoring,” Braekhus told BoxingScene.com. “You know, I think I won the fight. I know a lot of people saw it as a draw, which I could’ve, of course, lived with because I feel I did what I had to do to win. I think she was at home and all the judges were from her country. So yeah, definitely I think that was a part of her walking away with the belts.”
