Undisputed female middleweight champion Claressa “G.W.O.A.T.” Shields pretty much has this weekend’s boxing spotlight all to herself. Shields takes on late sub Maricela Cornejo this Saturday night at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit and streamed live on DAZN.
Claressa Shields: “No matter who is fighting me…they’re getting their ass kicked. The same thing that was gonna happen to my previous opponent, is what’s gonna happen to Cornejo…the thing is, I just feel like I’m a league above these girls, and I’m gonna show it on Saturday night.”
Hometown favorite Shields is between a 45:1 and 100:1 favorite at online sports books.

It was announced that hip-hop star Kash Doll will walk Shields to the ring and Motown legends The Four Tops will sing the national anthem. By the way, Duke Fakir, 87, the only living original member, continues to lead the group.
45:1 wow, this gives Tyson vs Douglas vibes. Good for Shields get to showcase in her hometown. Cornejo is a proud Mexican fighter and should make a better fight than the odds suggest.
“The Four Tops” would be a LGBT favorite in today’s time 🙂
OH MH GOD, YOU DIDNT MENTION “Q+” YOU BIGOT!!!! The alphabet mob is coming for your head!!!
Careful NJ, that kind of talk in today’s day can be offensive to the woke plp.
Interesting interview with her on the local Bally Sports station-traded gangster look for that of a girl next door. No foul mouth ranting-just intelligent conversation.
I thought the same. She is fully capable of having a normal dialogue, so is Tefimo and Tank, they can turn it on or off. I wish more urban kids would do the same, gangster mentality and talk is a turn-off.
