(MAR 21) Chicago, IL - Fresh
off her second consecutive victory over future Hall of Famer,
Cecilia Braekhus, undisputed welterweight champion, Jessica
McCaskill is looking to fight the biggest names on the female
circuit.
McCaskill of Chicago, easily
outpointed the legendary Braekhus by scores of 100-89, 99-90 and
98-91 to win her fifth consecutive and raise her record to 10-2.
"I felt my aggression was really
good, just keeping the pressure non-stop, and we are ready for
what is next. She was running in, and crowded herself, and I
figured if she was going to run in, I would have to get at least
one or two shots off, and she kept doing it, so I kept doing it
as well. I wanted to move and show some more angles, but she
kept coming straight in, so she was right there," said McCaskill.
"A fight with Katie Taylor might be the next thing on the
agenda. If that is what it is, that would be great. If that does
not work out, then there are a couple of other names out there.
As for Claressa Shields, McCaskill thinks a fight with her can
happen, "That could be a possibility if Claressa could come down
to 147 pounds. At first, she said that she would not give up any
weight, and now she is saying she would, so we are just going to
have to see if they are going to take this seriously."
Said McCaskill's promoter, Leon Margules of Warriors Boxing,
"Jessica proved yet again that she is one of the top fighters in
the world. She has now dominated the fighter that has been the
long-time pound for top boxer. We would love to fight anyone,
and a fight with Katie Taylor would most certainly have a
different outcome then their first fight. Fights with Taylor or
Claressa would be historic fights as it would match two of the
reigning undisputed champions against each other."
