Comments Thread For: Shields: I Want At Least $1M To Lose My Butt, Move Down To 147 To Fight Katie Taylor

[New England]

There is NO WOMAN who deserves a $1 million purse in todays professional boxing. Shields, how many years did she put in as an amateur learning the trade? How long has she even been boxing? And what boxing fan would put up their hard earned money to watch a PPV headlined by essentially amateur boxers?

You can push that they are professionals down my throat, but you'll never get my money to watch 2 amateur woman box. (I can't even stomach to watch woman fight for free) They'll have to have a super packed undercard, and I mean SUPER PACKED undercard of men to sell that PPV.

$1 Million? Lmfao!!! ..........Rockin'

rock you gotta put a sock in it man. shields won two gold medals. she has 80 amateur fights with one loss.

how many amateur fights did you have? you did not go 80 and 1, chief.

I will stick to real boxing

anne wolfe would knock you into a different zipcode. you'd wake up in a hospital, probably die of covid.

shields ppv probably sold less than 10 thousand units. i wouldn't at all be surprised if it sold in the hundreds.

Are you a flaming idiot or something?? LMAO....now you're advocating for the women NOT to fight 3 minute rounds??? That's just ******.....it would instantly add more excitement to a women's division that desperately needs it....and its the difference between a fraud like Katie taylor surviving and getting 2 gift decisions against Delfine Persoon who would've knocked Katie out TWICE if it were 3 minute rounds.....SMDH.....its too many dummies on this forum.

I will say this regarding the bolded. While declaring it would definitely be a KO is a bit of hyperbole, I agree she had Taylor in trouble, and, at least in the fght I saw (didn't know they fought twice) that women kicked Taylor's duff! I never looked at it as a function of how long the rounds are, but its a good point, and Taylor is overrated, she was IMO exposed in that fight I saw.... Persoon beat Taylor, took the fight to her also.

Yep....flaming idiot...I knew it..LOL. Women want equal pay and this would go a long way towards making that a reality....even though I personally don't think they deserve......but you're still an idiot.

Could you clean it up a bit and counter the point? Because my idiot ass reckons that idiot made a solid point.

Boxing's time frames are based on ability. If you give men 2 min rounds you'd get more activity out of them. When women are punching for the full rounds every round pretty much every fight then it's time to give them more work time.

Boxing is not the only combat sport. MMA has longer rounds, Kickboxing tends to have shorter rounds. MMA has more stalling than boxing and kickboxing has less. Why would I want to see a bunch of tired bitches who need a seat trying to go the extra min in the name of equality? That's silly.

We don't need to race them to know we are faster. We don't need to lift with them to know we are stronger. We don't need to punch them to know we hit harder, and, we do not need to put their endurance to our own to know they don't match.

I don't mean to be a **** and jump in halfway into a convo but you didn't even try to make a point back at him and I felt like it was a solid point he made.

Taylor gets saved by the bell so **** all these bitches? Basically all I got.

Listen...this isn't the best place to be a fighters cheerleader.....Katie clearly lost both fights....go look at DAZN's very own highlights....it looks like a Delfine Persoon highlight reel.

The first fight you have a case for the win, the second you don’t!

Even Persoon thinks she lost!!!

Im talking about Katie taylor and her UNANNOUNCED(you know they were low) PPV numbers....but they say Katie is a "huge star".....that's what the F I'm talking about.

????? Katie Taylor???? Who the *** is that????

Here’s an update. NOBODY CARES ABOUT WOMENS BOXING. NOBODY CARES ABOUT CLARESSA SHIELDS AND HER 10’s OF PPV BUYS OR KATIE TAYLOR.

[PunchMeIDareYou]

Shields is disgusting and anyone who finds her attractive is even more disgusting.

How did the PPV do?

From what I heard it got 10’s of buys but the ones in charge were optimistic about possibly gets into the hundred of buys
