Elin Cederroos is a 37-year-old mother of two and former Swedish football player.

She is also a world-class boxer who just had a bloody and entertaining fight in one of the world's most classic arenas, a sold-out Madison Square Garden in New York with 19,187 spectators.

After the loss in tonight's title match against Franchón Crews-Dezurn, she is hailed by coach Alexander Wennersten, who has witnessed the entire journey up close.

- Madison Square Garden is every boxer's dream.

And we came here.

Elin is cruel and absolutely incredible.

She's fucking wonderful, damn what she's fighting.

Now it was not enough today, but it is.

I'm so proud that we're here and incredibly proud to be able to train a man like her.

She is so cool, he says to SVT Sport after the match.

"Elin can handle everything"

- It sucks to lose.

We were number two from the beginning.

She did not get the guard up and received some hooks.

Elin can handle everything, but everyone who watched saw that it was a tough fight.

I think she will want to keep winning.

We were not enough today, but maybe next time.

Is it a return match against Crews-Dezurn you want?

- We shall see.

We are always open to fights and Elin is so cruel, she can meet anyone in the world.

But now she will have to rest up a little grand.
