Cecilia Braekhus has made her reaction well and truly known as Katie Taylor became a two-weight champion.
The undisputed welterweight champion, who has long been touted as a potential future opponent for Taylor, recently inked a deal with Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Boxing.
Hearn and Matchroom promote Taylor and Braekhus watched her female counterpart win the WBO female world super-lightweight championship.
Taylor is already the undisputed queen down at lightweight, having completed the mission back in June at Madison Square Garden in New York when she dethroned Delfine Persoon to win the WBC female lightweight title.
But after Taylor outpointed Christina Linardatou by margins of 96-94, 97-93 and 97-93 to claim the title a weight division north, ‘First Lady’ took to social media to react.
“Congratulations, Katie,” she wrote on Twitter. “See you soon.”
Braekhus has her own task at hand to deal with when she returns to the ring at the Casino de Monte Carlo Salle Medecin in Monte Carlo, Monaco, exclusively live on Sky Sports & DAZN, defending her WBO, IBF, WBO, IBO and Ring Magazine belts against a former opponent of Taylor’s in the shape of Victoria Noelia Bustos.
“I want that rematch with [Delfine] Persoon and the Amanda Serrano fight. The [Cecilia] Braekhus fight, as well, can be made,” said the two-weight world champion after her latest win. “I'm a two-weight world champion, but there are some great fights that can be made for me.”
