[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Claressa Shields may be the most decorated women's boxer in a generation, but she is pursuing a chance to rectify the lone loss of her boxing career (professional and amateur) with all the hunger of an underdog.

Shields has one of the most unlikeable personalities in the sport. Boring style with crap personality she is going to be tough to market.

It's what happens in the ring that settles it. That's the only way.

"She turned pro before me." Just to provide a little more context to this: Savannah Marshall has had 11 fights in her entire pro career. Claressa Shields had had four pro fights (a third of Marshall's entire pro career, therefore) before Savannah Marshall had her first pro fight.

She honestly isn't that bad. She just complains like any woman. lol. You just can't give a woman a microphone. They would just complain at a higher octave. Not a sexist, just dated a lot. My daughters even picked up the trait. "Jesus, not you too".

Taste is subjective to each his own ..

I don't watch boxing for personalities and I don't need a WWE circus show or any talk to get excited about a fight. I know even the great Ali used that strategy to become famous early on. Just my personality i guess cause the world seems to look forvthat fluff to get into something.

the woman can fight and even better than some guys so i love watching her.

Thats funny, I really like her personality, she is straight up and has a real spark and sense of humour, she keeps it real, I think she will bash Marshall tbh shes too skilled for the girl

Shields vs Marshall should be a fun fight.

I like the fight a lot. I do expect Marshall to win it though. They both have skill, Claressa is faster, but Marshall is more awkward (Peter Fury has been great for her) and the deciding factor for me, Marshall has a massive power advantage. I can hear her power through the TV screen, you can always tell when someone is hitting hard, I don't get that at all from Shields, who, whilst fast, sharp, and flashy with her punches, I think she is just above being feather-fisted.

Regardless of who is chasing the other, I look forward to seeing the fight happen. Nice contrast of styles.
