Claressa Shields: ‘It’s one big step for boxing and one giant step for womankind’
Claressa Shields is striving to set yet more records, writes Paul Wheeler
MAKING history, or “herstory”, as she calls it, is nothing new to Claressa Shields. It is what she does. Whether it is being the only American boxer to earn back-to-back Olympic gold medals, or winning world titles in three different divisions quicker than anyone else, the charismatic 25-year-old has grown accustomed to setting records. This Friday (March 5), she plans to add yet another layer to her legacy by becoming the first fighter ever to reign as undisputed champion in two separate weight classes during the four-belt era.
Play To The Crowd
Given the nation s current health crisis, it is unclear how many spectators will be present at the Dort Federal Event Center. If there are ten fans or a thousand fans in attendance, Shields will be best served to energize the crowd from the moment she walks to the crowd. Despite her opponent s 17-fight resume, she has no experience fighting outside of Canada. Michigan may border on Canada, but there is a huge difference between fighting in front of friends and family in Montreal and battling against the world s best in her hometown.
