\u2026 Opponent Maricela Cornejo calls her ‘GWOAT’<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shields showcased her “best” against Cornejo, winning by undisputed decision; Cornejo thanked Shields after fight for “creating movement in women’s boxing”; rival Savannah Marshall bids to become undisputed super-middleweight champion vs Franchon Crews-Dezurn on July 1, live on Sky Sports<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Claressa Shields put on a show in her home state of Michigan as the Flint native defended her belts<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Claressa Shields successfully defended her undisputed middleweight title with a lopsided unanimous decision over Maricela Cornejo on Saturday night in Detroit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shields (14-0, 2 KOs) won with a score of 100-89 on one card and 100-90 on the other two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

“You saw the best of me tonight,” she said. “The only thing I could have done better than I did tonight was get a knockout, and I think I would have knocked a lot of girls out with the punches I landed. Maricela is smart and she’s tough.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shields has won two Olympic gold medals and professional titles at super welterweight, middleweight and super middleweight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cornejo (16-6) hasn’t beaten an opponent with a winning record in more than four years. She opened her statement by thanking Shields.:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shields was unable to land a knockout blow against Maricela Cornejo, but said that was all her performance lacked<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“You’ve created a movement in women’s boxing, and you really are the GWOAT [greatest woman of all time],” she said. “After fighting you, I’m ready to go back to 154 pounds or even 147.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cornejo gave Shields some trouble in the early rounds with a solid jab and movement away from Shields’ right hand. However, she couldn’t generate enough power to keep the champion from coming forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shields opened a cut over Cornejo’s right eye in the fifth round and hurt her with a series of combinations in the seventh. A straight right sent Cornejo into the ropes, but the round ended before Shields could finish her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cornejo tired in the final rounds, but was able to fend the champion off to make it to the final bell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shields didn’t rule out returning to MMA. She had two fights in 2021, winning one and losing the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I have some decisions to make going forward,” Shields said. “I tend to focus on boxing, because that’s what I’m best at, but I don’t have any problem doing MMA. I think if I give it two years, I can be the champion there, too.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Shields was originally scheduled to fight a rematch with Hanna Gabriels, who knocked her down in 2018 before losing a unanimous decision. However, Gabriels was taken off the card after testing positive for a banned substance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I want to thank Maricela and her team for taking this fight on 10 days’ notice,” Shields said. “She’s not a last-minute replacement that I could just walk through. She got my attention with some of those right hands.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier on the night, Joseph Hicks (7-0, 5 KOs) picked up the WBA Americas Silver middleweight title with a unanimous eight-round decision over Antonio Todd \u2013 and he also thanked Shields for the opportunty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It was a surreal moment for me – I’ve never fought in front of a crowd like this,” Hicks said. “I want to thank Claressa for giving me a chance to experience this.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shields and Savannah Marshall have created a rivalry, the likes of which women’s boxing has never seen before<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The attendance was announced as 11,784. The arena’s lower bowl appeared more than half full while the upper bowl was curtained off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I think this has to end the myth that women don’t have fans,” Shields said. “People came from all over the world to see the GWOAT.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marshall gunning for Shields rematch<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Claressa Shields and Savannah Marshall go head to head at the O2<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shields says she would happily fight Savannah Marshall again and beat her, but believes Marshall’s fight with Franchon Crews-Dezurn for the undisputed super-middleweight title is too soon<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Savannah Marshall is convinced her fierce rivalry with Claressa Shields will lead them to fight once again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marshall lost a major undisputed middleweight clash to the American star in October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Briton is coming back from that reverse and stepping up to super-middleweight as she takes on the undisputed 168lb world champion Franchon Crews-Dezurn on July 1, live on Sky Sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking before Shields’ latest victory, Marshall said: “I’ve seen how my profile grew just from that one fight and I believe that it was down to the rivalry massively,” Marshall told Sky Sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Even now, all people are saying is: ‘When’s the rematch? When’s the rematch?’ That’s what boxing’s about. It’s a business. If you haven’t got a rival, it’s not that you’re going to struggle. But that’s where it happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“They’re the fights people want. Where there’s a bit of needle.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
