Undisputed middleweight champion Claressa Shields is eager to break the three division record of Vasiliy Lomachenko.

Shields is back on January 10th in Atlantic City, when he headlines a Showtime televised card against Ivana Habazin in a batlle for the vacant WBC and WBO 154-pound titles at Ocean Casino Resort.

“I’m super excited,” Shields told bjpenn.com. “Last year was such a setback for me and I’m ready to start 2020 with a knockout. I dislocated my knee last year, the fight got rescheduled because of the incident at the weigh-in, but now we’re here in 2020. I’ll be [headlining] the first card on Showtime in 2020 so I’m ready to ring in the new year with a bang.”

The 24-year-old Shields, in just her tenth professional fight, has the opportunity to break the record for becoming a three division champion in the shortest amount of fights.

The two-time Olympic gold medal winner is only five days away from being able to break another wall for women's boxing.

“It’s just more history of showing that women can do what the men do, and they can even do it better,” Shields said.

“Lomachenko holds the record with 12 fights becoming a three-division world champion. I’ll hold it within 10, and not only will I be a three-time division world champion, but I’m also undisputed, and also have two Olympic gold medals. Lomachenko is not undisputed, he has two Olympic gold medals, but I still hold the undisputed over him.

"It’s just showing that women are willing to take the challenges, we can do what the men do, and we’re making history. I’m gonna be on top of that history list ahead of Lomachenko, they’ll take our sport more serious and know that all the women may not be as daring as myself, but there are girls coming up who won’t be afraid of taking challenges. I’m really looking forward to making the history and looking forward to my next fight because this has been my next fight for way too long.”
