“Don’t disrespect me,” was Claressa Shields response when asked if she would ever fight on a Jake Paul undercard. Citing her accomplishments in the world of boxing, her two Olympic Gold Medals, undisputed championships in several weight classes, why should she? Claressa Shields knows her worth, and has her eyes set on the $1,000,000 purse in a future PFL World Title Fight.
Shields, who won her pro debut for the organization on June 10th, believes that with three years practice she can become the PFL Champion as well.
Her second fight can be seen on ESPN2 on Wednesday, October 27th. The card will also feature the current women’s lightweight champion Kayla Harrison who will defending her belt against Taylor Guardado, as well as five other title matchups, each carrying a $1,000,000 purse for the winner.
The event will be held at Seminole Hard Rock Casino and Hotel in Hollywood, FL.
