Claressa Shields urges people to “save that kid”

Taking to X, the middleweight champion reposted a clip from an individual with the social media handle ‘Paz49’. They had captioned their X post with “What the f**k did I just see?!” What did he see? The video captures an adult male positioned next to an underage boy within the crowd in the background, while the interview unfolds in the foreground.

In the clip, the unknown man whispers something in the kid’s ear before nibbling on it. After discovering the live camera, the man starts smiling at it in a bid to wave it off as a harmless joke. So, responding to the clip in question, Shields quickly wrote, “Man he need to put in jail, somebody save that kid!!”
