Cederroos became a unified World champion when she defeated WBA female super-middleweight title holder Alicia Napoleon-Espinosa by unanimous decision on 10 January 2020.
In her next fight she took on WBC and WBO female super-middleweight title holder Franchón Crews-Dezurn in a bout to decide the division's undisputed champion. Cederroos lost the contest at Madison Square Garden in New York on 30 April 2022 by unanimous decision.
Cederroos fought Shadasia Green for the WBC female super-middleweight Silver title on 4 February 2023 but suffered her first stoppage defeat. Having been dropped to the canvas in round three, she was taking heavy punishment in the sixth-round when referee Danny Schiavone stepped in to call a halt to the bout.
In September 2023, Cederroos retired from boxing.
