Claressa Shields has her sights on becoming a four-weight world champion in her July clash with Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse.
Claressa Shields has her sights on becoming a four-weight world champion after stepping up to challenge women’s WBC heavyweight champion Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse. The 29-year-old has been competing in mixed martial arts with Professional Fighters League since August last year, winning her most recent fight in February with a split-decision verdict over Kelsey DeSantis.
'I plan to do what I do best: bring that GWOAT energy and continue putting women's boxing on the map. 'I'm excited to bring another entertaining fight to Little Caesars Arena. Last time 12,000 fans filled the arena, and this time we're going to lift the roof off the building.' Two-time Olympic gold medallist Shields, who is 14-0 as a professional, has already been a world champion at light-middleweight, middleweight and super-middleweight.
