One thing there should be no controversy over: female fighter of the decade

[famicommander]

Amanda Serrano is wirth mentioning but too young I guess.

She's fantastic but:
-she does have a loss
-she has a habit of winning a vacant belt, then leaving the weight class without defending it

Serrano is a beast but Braekhus has beaten 15 former world champions. By my count, Serrano has beaten 6 in 2 more fights.

Amanda Serrano has held world championships in 7 different weight classes.

Amanda Serrano has held world championships in 7 different weight classes.

See above. She has won 9 world titles in 7 divisions, but she's only actually beaten 6 fighters who have held a major world title (or even an interim world title). You can count her total number of defenses on one hand.

And she lost once.

Braekhus is 15-0-0-0 against world champion opponents and still undefeated overall, not to mention she has 25 defenses of her WBC/WBA belts and all the other belts on top.

There really can be little argument. Serrano deserves a mention of course, as does Shields for becoming undisputed but neither has come remotely close to Ceceilias decade long reign at the very top of the womens sport.

This is true.

I wish Persoon would've chosen to move up after that fight instead of down.

I think Persoon could get up to 140 and maybe 147. She looks big at 135. Instead, she dropped down to win an interim belt at 130.

She didn't exactly drop down, man, she actually weighed in at 130 against Taylor's 134.5, which makes her performance even more impressive I would say.
