Thorslund outboxes Nuki, defends WBC and WBO world bantamweight titles

Dina Thorslund (23-0, 9 KOs) successfully defended her WBC and WBO world bantamweight titles. Thorslund defeated on Friday night in Holstebro, Denmark, the Japanese challenger Terumi Nuki (15-6) via unanimous decision.

All three judges scored the fight 99:91 in favor of Thorslund.

According to “Boxrec”, Thorslund at the moment is number 1 in P4P ranking. She is ahead of Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano.

The Thorslund-Nuki fight was billed as being the last for Thorslund on home soil, though she says that it may have been her final bout ever if that tournament doesn’t come to fruition.

“For five or six years I have said that I will stop shortly. But now I’m at a place in my life where I’m ready for it. I have fought my ass off for nine years as a professional, and it always comes at the expense of something else, and that is life,” Thorslund told DR.dk.
