Comments Thread For: Photos: Claressa Shields, Savannah Marshall - Heated Face-Off in London

Rooting for Marshall in this one not a fan of Shields racism and boastful attitude.

So says the Ginger lover, I would expect nothing less, but you will be disappointed in both very soon.

[Rebelrbg]

If they do/did, it would be due to people's actions, not their color

If you could, please explain what actions Shields and Baumgardner have taken?

[JohnnyCan]

What's her actions? Winning?

All she does is win. She's the most accomplished in womens boxing. But gets the most hate on here. We all know why.

If she wasn't black. She would be the undisputed goat on NSB.

Dudes don't even follow women's boxing but got an opinion on shields.

I wouldn’t say she is the most accomplished in womens boxing, not even close. She has done magnificently so far but her divisions hold her back because all the very talented fighters are 40 pounds or more south of her. She’s 12-0 with 2 kos. Not exactly earth shattering. For an example look at Christy Martin - 49-3 with 29 kos. And Martin fought on some huge stages also and was extremely skilled and a straight up vicious fighter. Shields shows me none of the viciousness of Martin but Shields is skilled. Just one comparison off the top of my head.

Aren’t you the same dude who tried to argue the same thing with wilder and fury lmao. You were so pro wilder, then made all the excuses in the world of why he was knocked out.

that would be incorrect sir. I'm a huge Wilder fan but not a delusional one. The first fight Fury got a gift 15 second count but I thought the draw was fair. The 2nd fight Wilder got destroyed but his accusations at first seemed justified. I tried to convince myself that he got cheated but lack of proof forced me to believe he just lost even though it was hard to believe Fury turned into Godzilla overnight. The 3rd fight settled it because clearly there were no egg weights, loaded gloves or spiked water. Classic HW fight for the ages with Fury forever proving that he is the superior fighter between the two. And I don't see what this has to do with what we are talking about.

Unlike Martin, Shields is a true boxer, thus her reason for begging for 3 minute rounds since turning pro. I'm sure if they granted her wish, she would have many more KOs. She breaks her opponents down with skill, while Martin used to come out with all guns blazing and maul her opponents. When she faced the best with boxing skills, she lost. In 12 fights, Shields is undisputed in 2 weight classes and champion in 3. Yeah, she talks her sh#t, but she deserves to with the work she puts in, and it adds to the entertainment value and promotion of the fight and her brand.

Is Marshall related to Billy Joe Saunders?

I'm talking about active fighters. She is a 3 divison champ and undisputed in 2 of those 3 divisons in just 12 fights.

Female Lomachenko right?

Watch yourself, you know you can't compare her to their handheld idol, even though he has 2 losses in 18 fights, but still on most p4p lists, and lost his first fight but was ushered down the red carpet to a championship fight by his 3rd.

OOOO my bad I need to take my own advise and read your entire post thoroughly before responding. You're saying because you thought I said Fury was tall and slow like Marshall. No sir. He is tall but I never said slow. What I said about Fury before the first Wilder fight is what I gathered about him from his previous fights I saw like Klitschko, Cunningham and Hammer. I thought he was a big goofy herky jerky dirty fighter with no power and for the first 11 1/2 rounds of the first fight I was right. Then he gets with Sugar Hill and got transformed into Godzilla. I gave Wilder every chance to convince me that he cheated the 2nd fight but when the 3rd fight happened that disproved all the negatives. I was giving Sugar Hill all the credit until I watched the 1st fight again and realized after Fury got flat lined in the 12th round and got back on his feet after 36 seconds (haha) he actually turned into Godzilla right then and there because he mowed Wilder down for the rest of the round. So I guess that knockdown brought something out of Fury that he never knew was in there. All hail King Fury. But that aint gonna help Marshall one bit. WAR WILDER!!!
