    There have only been 3 undisputed women's champions ever, all currently active:

    Claressa Shields @ 160
    Cecilia Braekhus @ 147
    Katie Taylor @ 135

    If Taylor goes up and beats Braekhus (I have my reservations of course), we would see the first female fighter to become undisputed in 2 divisions. The only men to have done the same:

    Evander Holyfield @ CW & HW
    Dick Tiger @ LHW & MW
    Nino Benvenuti @ MW & SWW
    Emile Griffith @ MW & WW

    I doubt she goes to WW for the fight, it'll probably be at a catchweight.

    Maybe meet at 140.
