- Claressa Shields
Sooner or later a professional promoter is going to have to make serious effort to push womenโs boxing. If Ronda Rousey can turn womenโs UFC into an event, surely boxing can have the same. Shields is the perfect candidate to lead the sport forward in the US. Sheโs aggressive, powerful, she wants to have a tear-up and fights like a pro. Plus she is Americaโs first ever two-time Olympic boxing gold medallist. Why not stage Shields versus Savannah Marshall, who remains the only boxer to beat Claressa, a defeat Shields has never avenged?
