Professional career

Thorslund made her professional debut against Czech Petra Podráská on 28 February 2015 at the Boxsporthalle Braamkamp in Hamburg. Thorslund won the fight via first-round technical knockout.

On 10 March 2018, she defeated Alicia Ashley for the WBC interim female super-bantamweight title in Struer, Denmark, winning by unanimous decision. [1]

Thorslund won the vacant WBO female super-bantamweight title, defeating Mexican Jessica Arreguín by unanimous decision on 25 August 2018 at the Struer Arena. [2]

After making three successful defences of her title, Thorslund switched weight divisions to claim the vacant WBO female World bantamweight crown with a unanimous decision win over Jasseth Noriega on 25 June 2021. [3]

Three successful defences followed before, on 1 September 2023, she added the WBC female World bantamweight title as well as the inaugural Ring female bantamweight title to her collection by defeating Yulihan Luna via unanimous decision. [4] [5]

She defended all three belts for the first time on 24 February 2024, when she secured an eighth-round stoppage win against Spain's Mary Romero who had accepted the fight on two days' notice. [6] Thorslund had originally been scheduled to face Turkish boxer Seren Cetin but the challenger was ruled unfit to fight due to a fresh cut by her left eye that had been closed by six stitches. [7]

Thorslund and Cetin eventually met on 25 May 2024, with the Dane retaining her titles thanks to a unanimous decision win at the Royal Arena, Copenhagen, Denmark. Two ringside judges scored the fight 100–90 with the third giving it 99-91. [8]

She defended her titles again on 25 October 2024, securing a unanimous decision win over Terumi Nuki at Graakjaer Arena, Holstebro, Denmark, with all three judges awarding her the fight 99-91. [9] [10]

On 26 March 2025 it was announced that Thorslund signed with Most Valuable Promotions. [11] [12]

Thorslund vacated her titles in June 2025 after announcing she was pregnant with her second child. She had been scheduled to face IBF champion Shurretta Metcalf in an unification contest on 11 July 2025. [13] [14]

Having suffered a miscarriage, she is scheduled to return to the competitive boxing ring against Lila Furtado at Sydbank Arena in Kolding, Denmark, on 31 January 2026, with the vacant WBC interim female featherweight title on the line. [15]
