Comments Thread For: Claressa Shields Holds Off Savannah Marshall's Late Rally, Becomes Undisputed

True. You don’t see anyone calling Wilder and Joshua “great black hopes” after getting beat by 2 white guys. That would be racist, right? So in the name of equality, let’s not use this narrative for any race. Equality for all.

Only difference btwn the two “white guys” is, one’s a good boxer that simultaneously relies on being a certified cheat in the PED & glove flop Orca leaning departments….

Usyk, while being a much better boxer (imo), is a humble guy that gives humankind and boxing really really good representation!

So it’s true, It all depends on character not race….Joshua can’t be in the discussion because he’s not human - he’s a robot that throws rusty stiff combinations ..lol…”Equality” can exist when racism and cheating against fellow human beings takes a back seat….it’s all interrelated.

Lol, I told you that your Euro-boxer bias shows clearly. This fight was not close to a draw. Marshall put up a good effort, but Shields was the better boxer and landed clean shots and combinations.

I think you need to watch the fight again if you thought Claressa landed that many combinations. Her shots either went over Savannah's head, or hit the gloves and arms. Only a few times did she land in combination throughout the whole 10 rounds.

Is Boxing scene biased? They had it 96-94 for Shields. That is 1 round different to what i had it.

ESPN scored it 96-94 also.

For the record both Shields and Marshall weren’t gracious towards each other during the buildup of this fight. They BOTH gave demerit worthy promotional hype. Pretty cringeworthy for women, not just womens boxing…..

Racists will focus and call out the one who is not of their race. Marshall took a more laid back rude sarcastic condescending tone, while Shields was more boastful & boisterous. The racists on this sight clearly saw the ONE who is not “liked” and who behaved badly.

i think there will be a meltdown

shields seems to have a bad temper

Chill with the racist posts, Boxingscene must’ve removed your last one……don’t be a devil or a demon

I had it a draw. Claressa missed far too many punches or had them blocked. Sav put the pressure on all night. She just shouldn't have got that close to Claressa. She needed space for her shots. She let that go there.

A draw? Lol you biased af sidney fight was never a draw, Claressa clearly won fight YDKAB..haha a draw..

They are already in here making excuses and trying to find a way to discredit Sheilds lol. It's pathetic.

Why am I not surprised..and I’m positive I know the rhetoric bwing used has probably gone racial

this fight was so easy to score that i didn't even score it. I just know that you couldn't give Marshall more than 3 rounds. Apparently, people were giving her rounds for the ability to take a punch and keep coming forward. Anyone with a brain knew this was going to be a one sided event. i knew since last year. I tried to tell these ****** mfers.

Well, there we go. You never know what the judges like. Shields did land the flashier shots, but Marshall should have won in my opinion. She took over the last half of the fight.

Wasn't close, Shields showed a different level of technical skills and landed the cleaner shots. She also landed the better combinations on the inside, which I didn't expect. People really need to appreciate how great of a boxer she is. Even when Marshall landed something hard, she would turn, change the distance and answer back with clean shots.
