On the Chinese calendar, 2022 is the Year of the Tiger. In boxing, it's the Year of the Woman.
LONDON, ENGLAND - OCTOBER 15: Claressa Shields punches Savannah Marshall during the IBF, WBA, WBC, WBO World Middleweight Title fight between Claressa Shields and Savannah Marshall on the Shields vs Marshall Boxxer fight night which is the first women's only boxing card in the UK at The O2 Arena on October 15, 2022 in London, England. On the Chinese calendar, 2022 is the Year of the Tiger. In boxing, it’s the Year of the Woman.
And Saturday’s show followed the success of the undisputed women’s lightweight title bout in April that Katie Taylor won over Amanda Serrano at a jammed Madison Square Garden in New York. Shields has been a star almost from the day she turned pro in 2016 after winning gold medals at the 2012 Olympic Games in London and then repeating at the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. But she hasn’t been universally beloved or accepted by the fans. She’s extraordinarily confident and not afraid to say it.
But look at Shields’ record and it’s remarkable what she’s done. She debuted on Nov. 19, 2016, at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and another woman making her debut, Franchon Crews-Dezurn. Shields won that by shutout, but Crews-Dezurn is now the undisputed super middleweight champion.
