    Undisputed women's welterweight world champion and No. 1 pound-for-pound Cecilia Braekhus made her American television debut in the first female fight on HBO in its 45-year history of boxing coverage, and she finally had a bit of trouble.

    Braekhus retained her 147-pound title for the 22nd time by unanimous decision, but she got knocked down in the seventh round and rocked late in the eighth by former middleweight world titlist Kali Reis on the Gennady Golovkin-Vanes Martirosyan undercard Saturday night at the StubHub Center.
