Hopefully Marshall would be the payday fight that she craves in boxing. If i was her i would allow that fight to build up, female boxing is more booming in the UK rather than america. Thats why the biggest payday is in the UK, no one owes you anything, Marshall just beat rankins so that might be a fight that shields looks into.
    Looks into? Running away from more like

    She always talked about Marshall because Marshall beat her in the amateurs. Now Marshall is knocking fighters out and it seems the natural fight to make, she is running from the sport

    Marshall is a different beast to other female fighters though, she has power and puts her shots together with bad intentions.

    I don’t think Shields fancies that

      I know Marshall beat her in the amateurs, just don't think she is avoiding that fight. The more people talk about you avoiding the fight then the better payday or chance of the fight getting bigger, but she definitely need to take on Marshall much more earlier now than when Marshall gets even better.

        Keep supporting your entitled, lazy, racist, corrupt, incompetent scumbag of a president. Vladdy Daddy loves you guys. The right is so easy to flock like a herd of sheep to whatever BS your pathetic, compromised president spews. All dead soldiers are losers and suckers right? I suppose you think COVID-19 is a conspiracy that is designed to take away your freedoms right? You people are dumb beyond belief. Go read a book instead of Trump's spitey teenage girl level tweets on a daily basis and you might actually learn something. Even his POS AG Barr says there was no voter fraud!
        GTFOH with your lies and unfounded conspiracies.

        Bow down to your true leader, Daddy Vladdy Poutine.
        Do you even understand the complete and utter ignorance of your post. I’m gobsmacked on how utterly ignorant one can truly be. If supporting and defending the constitution as a former United States Marine (including the 2nd *********) is hardcore right winger then sign me up and put me at the front of the line.

        It’s funny how when restrictions to liberties get discussed the first that’s rolled out is 2A. In true Joseph Goebels form your mind is mush thanks to a hapless media you’ve lapped up like a horse at trough. Since you like targeting 2A how about we then go after the 4th *********? The Government can now go after you without any representation of counsel. Sounds awesome doesn’t it? Or how about we limit your rights under the 5th. You are now guilt of all crimes and must prove your innocence. You lefties are something.

        You are a sheep and have no independent thought. Evidence of this is proven within your response as supplied talking points from the media. Raaaacisssst, cooorrrupt, entiiiiitleeeed. Your mind is also on the level of an underdeveloped child. Simpleton honestly. Go read a book? Really? How about Bachelors of Science in Business Administration minoring in micro and macro economics? That good enough summer reading for you? Or 7 technology certifications? That enough education for you? I don’t read tweets, twits, twat...I don’t belong to Twitter. I’m not a mindless robot because I have independent thought.

        Lastly, the only thing you lefties keep rolling out are the old tired talking points of muhhhh Russia muhhhh Russia.... I thought we had a 2 year, wasted millions of dollars on an investigation that found...waaaait for it...waaaait for it....that’s right!!!
        Nothing, nada, zilch! But hey muh Russia....

        You don’t even know what took place that lead up to the investigation do you? If you truly have a full comprehensive understanding of what took place you’d be scared sh ! T less. A private citizen is spied upon by the most powerful investigative unit in the world under the au****es of an illegal FISA warrant on Michael Flynn. You probably don’t even have a basic comprehension of what took place and how that could impact your personal liberties. Your mind is simple my friend devoid of any independent thought.

        It’s quite sad actually

          The real question should be why do female stars make more in MMA than in an older more established sport like Boxing?

          Could a Rhonda Rousey type star appear in boxing? Hell the chick couldn't punch worth a lick and got put on a boxing mag that's how much she transcended.

              fighting is essentially a testosterone driven action....
              we know women can fight and it's competitive within the context of a woman fighting a woman, but it isnowhere near close to the same as men fighting.

              it's so fking disrespectful given the 100 yr history of proffessional male boxers who've built it, the male promoters, broadcasters etc.
              no one stopped women doing their own thing, if they got together and attended, watched womens fights and did their own women only promoters..
              but as usual they need to diss men for not giving them a free hand.

              women are a joke.

                Mannix got all this from an interview with Shields several months ago. Surprised at how this is news to so many but at the same time who listens to Mannix? Ha. So it’s not that surprising, I guess.

Go lick Daddy Vladdy's balls because he has more say in how America is ran under Trump than Trump does.
                  Or maybe you want to be Kim Jong's new boyfriend? He's a fat lazy spoiled, entitled idiot and I'm guessing that's what you are as well.

                  If you think I read any of your drivel beyond the first line, you're sadly mistaken. In addition to being MENTALLY ILL!

                    I commend you for your thoughtful and quite accurate response. Unfortunately, there is no cure for *******ism, a far more severe disease than China Virus!

                      MMA has proven that they will/can/and are committed to creating opportunities to develop female stars. Whether she can compete in that arena is a completely different discussion but as a female there is no question UFC has demonstrated their commitment to female headliners and stars. Good for her, I hope she does awesome, although I’m skeptical.
