Multiple world boxing champion and new MMA representative, Claressa shields definitely not a fan of that Jake Paul has done in the universe of 'noble art'. At a press conference held to promote the finals of the PFL tournaments, which take place in October, the boxer got angry with a member of the press when asked if she would participate in a preliminary fight for a show promoted by youtuber.

“Don’t disrespect me. I would never do a preliminary fight for the Jake Paul. I am world champion in three different weight categories, twice Olympic champion in boxing. Acting before a guy who promotes a 'circus'. No disrespect to (Tyron) Woodley or Jake Paul, but I'm a real boxer. I can defeat Jake Paul in the weight class I'm in now. Then no. I would never fight against someone who doesn’t have the skills and achievements that I have”, said the athlete.
On the way to becoming one of the best boxers of all time, Shields today holds the WBO, WBC, WBA and IBF middleweight boxing titles. In addition to her achievements as a professional in the 'noble art', the fighter also boasts two Olympic gold medals, in 2012 (London) and 2016 (Rio de Janeiro).
In the sport since 2016, Claressa has a perfect track record in the 'noble art'. The fighter doesn't know what it's like to lose in 11 commitments in the sport.
Willing to make even more history in martial arts, the 26-year-old athlete began a great challenge in 2021. In June, the American debuted as an MMA professional and defeated Brittney Elkin by knockout, working in the PFL.
After winning his debut in the new modality, Shields already has a new challenge confirmed. On October 27th, the fighter returns to the decagon and faces Abigail Montes.
