    Comments Thread For: 'Fighting Words' - Claressa Shields: Not just history, but necessity

    Claressa Shields calls herself the GWOAT - the Greatest Woman of All Time. That's for history to decide. But if that is indeed the case, then Shields is unfortunately ahead of her time.

    Pride goeth before destruction and an haughty spirit before a fall.

    She's arrogant. The competition level in women's boxing is nil. She can run her mouth all day long but life will catch up to her. She's a good boxer with Shakur Stevenson hands (weak). If she was presenting women's boxing as a sport I would maybe be intrigued. She's presenting it as a pissing contest and that's a shame.

        The only thing I can't stand is other people calling her the GWOAT! How many lives did she save on a battlefield or in a nursing facility for the badly wounded, working tirelessly to bring someone back to life? I'm not against her being called the greatest woman's boxer but the greatest woman of all time is a downright insult to women who gave every ounce of their time and their souls to save lives.

          How about just a regular mom?

              Didn't really want to read a book about the subject. Writers should keep articles short--no?

                  Wrote all that just to essentially say that women's boxing is sad.

                    Is she paying for this? Because I assure you, no one gives a **** about her.
