In a women’s lightweight showcase bout featuring two-time Olympic boxing gold medalist and two-division undisputed pro champ Claressa Shields and little-known Abigail Montes, the upstart Mexican fighter won her United States debut by split decision on the PFL event on Wednesday night at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Scores were 29-28, 29-18 for Montes, 29-28 for Shields. Montes is now 3-0, Shields falls to 1-1 as an MMA fighter.
LIKE I SAID ON A DIFFERENT SITE… Claressa Shields IS THE QUEEN OF BOXING THIS IS WHAT SHE DOES… UNDEFEATED AS A PRO BOXER… I DON’T BLAME HER BUT MMA IS NOT HER THING AND SHE GOT A LITTLE TO BIG FOR HER BRITCHES… THIS HAPPENS… EVEN ALI DID WITH THE FIRST FRAZIER FIGHT IT HAPPENS… I HOPE SHE LEARNED SOMETHING HERE… STAY WITH HER SPORT… SHE WAS LOOKING FOR THAT MONEY AND REALLY WHO CAN BLAME HER… I HOPE SHE MAKES MILLIONS IN HER SPORT… I LIVE IN MICHIGAN AND THAT DOES NOT MATTER… EVEN IF I WENT BACK TO WHERE I WAS BORN IN SYRACUSE SHE’D STILL BE MY FAVORITE FEMALE BOXER…. STILL A LOYAL FAN…. MAKE A MILLION Claressa Shields… THAT’S ONLY ONE MIS-STEP AND IT AINT EVEN A THING…. TAKE ON YOUR NUMBER 1 CONTENDER WHO EVER IT IS AND WHIP HER BUTT… LIKE A I SAY STILL A LOYAL FAN!!! AND THIS IS CHIPPERRRRRRRRR
She was just running her mouth how she would beat Jake Paul. She probably would, I could best that pussy too, but yeah too big for her britches attitude. Humble yourself girl
Don’t be such a hypocrite. She’s not doing anything different than Tyson Fury, Mcgregor or any male fighter is doing. She’s SUPPOSE to promote herself and say he’s the greatest thing since sliced bread.
I agree. I would hate to see shields to get in therre with Amanda Nunez.
Shields is a great boxer and has a chance to go down history amongst the top two or three female boxes of all time please stay in your sport sister you’re a special talent in boxing
Agreed. Stay in boxing.
There are no all time great female boxers
FOR REAL SHE’LL GET DAMAGED REAL BAD
I FEEL THE SAME WAY, KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO BEST THAT’S BOXING SO ALL THE ANGER YOU GOT IN YOU FOR LOSING MMA LEAVE MMA ALONE GO BACK TO BOXING AND WHIP SOME ASS
I thought Shield won the fight, but it is good that she has to eat humble pie
You bring up a good point. Sometimes losing makes one a better performer. It allows a time for self-evaluation, improvements, and most of all, learning to be humble!
I don’t like the whole switching discipline thing. I think it isn’t what is being presented as. People act like the person is ‘challenging themselves’, when in reality it’s a low risk situation. Shields is supposed to be in her peak as a boxer. She should be proving that again and again right now. Fighting MMA is win win because if she loses she is given respect for trying something new. Same with Conor McGregor. As soon as he fought Floyd it was like he had transcended MMA. In reality, the guy can barely win an MMA fight. I am looking forward to Shields vs Savannah Marshall
CB, thanks for your reply.
What fight were you watching that you thought Shields won? Time to see the ophthalmologist
Claressa, I guess you are not entitled. Time to FOCUS on boxing, and prepare for Savannah. Arrogance makes people SOFT.
People, let’s see if Claressa is good enough to beat Savannah. I think we might be seeing the female version of Fury/Wilder, with Savannah as Fury, and. Claressa as Wilder. Savannah might just beat Claressa up.
Speaketh … FJB.

Great Job, Abigail Montes. You did an A+ Job last night. Simon Tov & Mazel Tov.
F.J.B. is very proud of you, Abigail.
And, Claressa, it is never a good idea to gloat. Your arrogance made you soft.
Speaketh … FJB.

Good win for Montes. This is what she trains to do, MMA. Shields doesn’t impress me. She’s a Boxer, but she’s chasing money, running her mouth too much, trying to feed the hype.
Substance prevailed this night.
Al the hard work to leave your record In grappling sports
For 2 dollars probably
She aint shite! boxing comp is non-existent in her fat division. Go make a son who may have potential to be interesting
always such a big surprise when a boxer loses an mma fight ……….
She has only been training MMA for 8 months, a split decision loss not too bad. A lot of MMA females lost early even Amanda Nunez. MMA has way better fighters than female boxing.
This woman has the heart of a lion. No shame in trying and LEARING!
Congratulations. Keep up the great work. True champion!
Funny how everybody in the comments are PRO analysts. Most of you cant or wouldnt even fight to defend your life, let alone for sport!
Cowards!
Hahahahahahaha. Still the gwoat! Rumble young woman rumble.
After watching this fight, I am now going on record and saying that I firmly agree with EDDIE HEARN. Savannah Marshall is not only going to defeat Claressa Shields, she is going to knock her out. She is going to fuck her up. This will be similar to the 2nd fight between Tyson Fury & Deontay Wilder. Fury might even get in the ring, after that fight, and sing a song to the crowd. Marshall might even lick Shield’s neck.
Marshall by KO or TKO
Speaketh … FJB.

You’re basing your decision on a MMA fight. You’re a bitch and a faggot. Shut the fuck up stupid
Savannah Marshall will defeat Claressa! Claressa thinks she’s all that because there is not much competition in women’s boxing. And, not that the fight would ever happen, but I think one Jake Paul right hand would knock her TFO! Remember back when morons were claiming Ronda Rousey could beat Floyd Mayweather in a fight?
You are a stupid ass woman hater. You thinking about her fighting a man. You are a straight bitch. Get Jake Paul’s dick out your mouth
You are correct, womens boxing is very bad. The female MMA fighter are way better. Top female MMA fighter can beat most female boxing champs.
Hells Yeahhh!!! Viva México
Undefeated no more. Not surprising though. Curious if she offers Abigail $ to rematch in boxing ring.
Wow. You are a fucking retard to assume and think something like that
This also reminds me how much respect we should have for Holly Holm’s career and tranistion into MMA
Shit head. Holly transitioned after she retired from boxing. Not doing it simultaneously Like Shields. Est a dick hater
I wonder how she reacted in defeat. That’s important that she respond appropriately to acknowledge the limitations of a career boxer converting to a mma fighter. I don’t see much success in either direction.
You’re no expert so we don’t give a fuck about what you think you see
“You’re no expert so we don’t give a fuck about what you think you see”
– And you are?
Sport has a marvellous way of dealing with big egos!!
I did not like Shields until last night, what I seen last night was a women who tested herself to the max. She’s has a heart of a lion, she will become a great MMA fighter if she sticks with it. This loss helps her more to become a complete fighter.
shields very overated not a mma fighter will people actually p ay good money to see her fight i sure would not just a waste she had some boxing talent but will probably lose that as she gets older
Hey woman hater. Shut the fuck up and get that dick out your ass
I didn’t see the fight as of yet but I’m guessing she was taken to the ground. When will boxers understand, its ALL about the ground game. Work on that shit. Your stand up is already in the bank. Ground, Ground, Ground!!!
Talk what you know idiot. She is progressing in MMA. she wasn’t helpless on the ground. I can’t stand bitches who assume shit
she is great at ping pong, she should try that, oh and f you smart ass, pick on some one your own size, like your little sister
” I can’t stand bitches who assume shit”
– This means that you can’t stand yourself.
Props to Claressa for fighting tough opponents. Her opponent was more experienced and undefeated. Didnt get the showcase or record padding afforded to Rousey. People are happy to see her lose because she is proud and showed confidence in herself. Now you say good – she gets humble pie. So what is it called if a fighter is humble and still lose in a good close fight?
Joe Louis was humble as the come and the US still bit him in the ass.
Fury can demean, cheat, brag, lie and its perfectly fine.
The truth is she is still an accomplished superior athlete and you’re forced to eat humble pie everyday.
“Joe Louis was humble as the come and the US still bit him in the ass.”
– Agreed.
Good!!
When Clarissa improves her wrestling and Jiu Jitsu she will be a force-She should train with Shevchenko-but a great win by Abigail who also threw a few Boxing hooks effectively
Fuck outta here. She did good. Lost a split decision. Face didn’t even look like she was in a fight. She progressed a lot in MMA. Cyborg lost her 1st fight. She’s the GWOAT. And all you sucker ass women haters can go to hell.
haha, sorry but ego is important but come on
GWOAT-Greatest Waste of All Time
Such a boor
Clarissa Shields is a good female boxer she is not a MMA fighter. Even in boxing she only has 2 KO’s. She has no power. In the MMA world she has nothing to offer with no power. All she can do is out box people and outpoint fighters ? Not in MMA.
you are absolutely correct Shields has 2 tkos at that not even real KOs she has fought 9 nobodys and only 2 legit female fighters with a smaller one dropping her on her ass!!!! in boxing shes basically doing what on the mens side is called weight bullying but somehow its ok for the females to do it? Shields will lose a few more MMA fights then quit just wait and see and in the meantime she is not focusing on her boxing skills since shes trying to compete in MMA so she will lose to a Sarah Marshall and then blame MMA for distracting her lmao remember true boxing fans the ONLY female Queen of boxing is the current P4P Queen Amanda Serrano
Yes not too much competition on female boxing. It is hard to watch. Like watching middle school girls basketball.
If she wants to stay undefeated in boxing, she best not fight Suvannah Marshall.
