After the old video of Arturs Ahmetovs knocking down Claressa Shields went viral, ‘T-Rex’ took to X and claimed Ahmetovs had not only cheated but put her life in jeopardy during that 2018 sparring session. While there was “no shame” in being dropped, the Undisputed Middleweight champion stated Ahmetovs had taken the padding out off his gloves to spar against Shields. Likewise, she also expressed her disgust for coach Derek Santos who, as per Shields, had permitted Ahmetovs to fight with a pair of tampered gloves.

In addition, Shields stated Ahmetovs had removed the padding because ‘T-Rex’ had “embarrassed him earlier this week.” Anyway, after fans speculated Ahmetovs knocking down Claressa Shields in sparring, footage of the two-time Undisputed champion hurting her male sparring partners was released.
