Comments Thread For: Would A Win Over Savannah Marshall Silence Claressa Shields' Critics?

[Lefty0616]

Shields is a very good boxer, but she's not very marketable. She's rough around the edges and is very interview ignorant. She's like the female version of Chris Arreola. She makes me cringe.

thanks, Corey.

I found the post fight hysterics a bit crass. Jumping on her after she's just had a distance fight. Especially after they fist bumped straight away. All got a little less believable.

If Shields is as good as she claims she is, why doesn't she move up and challenge a HW woman?

It's not like there's a female version of Tyson Fury waiting for her? Who is the HW woman champion?

There are only 12 women ranked female heavyweights and only 6 have wins. Hanna Gabriels is what you'd call the champ and I wouldn't say she has Tyson Fury likes skills.

So if you want equality in sport ...

Yeah Shields vs Gabriels, why not? Shields should be able to school her if she's truly the GWOAT.

*edit* Just checked google, it looks like Shields has already beaten her lol.

Shields has already beaten several fighters with better pro resumes than Marshall. Marshall has one win vs a world champion opponent, Shields has 9.

There are not many fighters above 168. There is no cruiserweight division at all and some sanctioning bodies only award a light heavyweight title, some only a heavyweight title. Gabriels is currently the only female titlist above 168.

No.

Women's boxing is trash so who really cares who wins, people don't like her because she's a trash human being.

here we go again/ every time shields opens a can of whupass we get these comments about who shes fought and this and that, savanna marshall being the loudest one out there talking loud and saying nuthin.... she currently holds the wbo belt that shields vacated after unifying all 4 in 2 different classes... other than that marshall has limited experience .....they both turned pro around the same time but marshall seems to be dragging along and could have fought shields before shields beat hammer. but all we heard from her camp is she,s not ready, she not ready, then tell her to sit back and get sum accomplishments and additional hardware and quit resting on i beat her once... outpointing someone in amatuers 17--14. certainly doesnt carry much weight, especially seeing that marshall barely represented GB in the olympics and has no medals to show for it......
