Undefeated boxer Claressa Shields released an intense training video. The reigning light middleweight champion also hinted at an upcoming fight.
Shields has been inactive since January 2020. “T-Rex” was scheduled to fight Marie-Eve Dicaire in May. However, that fight was postponed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. On ‘The Last Stand’ with Brian Custer, Shields revealed that she will box Dicaire in September.
“So my next fight is definitely against Marie-Eve Dicaire, IBF world champion from Canada. She is 17-0, we’re going to be fighting mid-September, last week of September. We just waiting for SHOWTIME to give us the date and location and it’s a go. But that fight is definitely my next fight and then after that, I would love to fight the winner of Hanna Gabriels and Raquel Miller,” Shields said.
