Claressa Shields reveals her unpleasant encounter with her childhood idol, Serena Williams

27-year-old ’T-Rex’ has come a long way in her boxing career. With multiple accolades to her name, she has earned a name for herself. Moreover, the boxer had a lot of respect for her childhood idol, tennis player Serena Williams. But Shields’ idea of meeting her idol didn’t line up with the picture that she had in her head. 

While talking to ‘Detroit Free Press’, Shields said, “She [Serena Williams] was just not nice. For me to look up to her like I did when I was a kid and then meet her in person and see how she’s not fan-friendly.”

The boxer further added, “She was kind of mean to a lot of people at the Olympics and just kind of made me not want to be like her. Because I’m different.”
