Mathis vs. Braekhus Showdown Set for March 17th in Denmark

Team Sauerland, have just announce that the ‘Nordic Fight Night’ will hit Frederikshavn on March 17, featuring the very best of Danish boxing as well the biggest fight in women´s boxing.

At the Arena Nord, highly-rated WBA, WBC, and WBO Female Welterweight Champion Cecilia Braekhus (19-0, 5 KOs) and top-ranked contender Anne-Sophie Mathis (26-1, 22 KOs) will determine the undisputed pound-for-pound queen.

In one of the main bouts, Braekhus and Mathis, will battle it out for supremacy in women's boxing. Unbeaten Braekhus holds three major titles and Mathis has just destroyed pound-for-pound queen Holly Holm in December.

“This is the fight the world wants to see,” Braekhus said. “It´s the biggest challenge of my life. Mathis clinched a spectacular victory against Holm but her winning streak will come to an end when we meet on March 17. Only one of us can be the number one and that will be me.”
