Claressa Shields is coming off strong after a spectacular unanimous victory against Maricela Cornejo. After putting down Savannah Marshall, she has again proved why calling herself the ‘GWOAT’ is not really an exaggeration. Although, many thought the Marshall rematch to be a viable choice for Shields, ‘T-Rex’ doesn’t want to do another fighter in the United Kingdom. From the commercial perspective, Shields vs. Marshall 2 would be a bigger fight in the UK than it would be in the US.
So, Shields is starting to turn her attention towards the rising 168 star, Shadasia Green. For some time now, Shields and Green have been going back and forth, and after Cornejo, the world wants the Undisputed Champion in the Middleweight division to prove her might next against Green. Recently, she even slapped back at Green’s harsh statements.

Well, Green watched the interview, and instantly talked about the Michigan native on the X. She wrote, “We shall all bow down to her! We must not respond or else we are hating. I was too busy enjoying myself yesterday to catch this but let me grab my brush.”
After this, Shields slammed back stating, “Just be glad I even mention you b*** nobody knows who you are!!!! Literally! Tell [Jake Paul] to do a better job at promoting you!”

After this, Shields also said that she’s only giving a chance to Green because she’s blatantly claimed that she can easily beat her in a boxing fight. A month ago, she had talked about the prospects of their fight together. Well, as per the demeanor of Shields, it’s quite obvious that she doesn’t consider Green to be a worthy opponent against her. This is quite apparent from her past statements as well.
Shields wasn’t impressed with Shadasia Green’s recent performance
On August 5th, the day when Jake Paul went against Nate Diaz, on their undercard, Shadasia Green also flaunted her boxing prowess. Green showcased her immense ability to fight technically against Olivia Curry, as she grabbed the unanimous victory against an Iowa-born orthodox boxer. Although many fans were satisfied with the performance of ‘The Sweet Terminator’, one person wasn’t really impressed.

Claressa Shields shared that she believed Green doesn’t deserve a chance against her after her laid-back movement against Curry. She said, “So y’all want me to go handle Shadasia at 168, y’all said! That performance I seen tonight was so low tier! But if the fans want it, I’ll take her! Beat her, too!”
Well, the fans definitely want this to happen, and Shields is known to never back down from a fight. So, she seems ready to take the challenge against Green, and the build-up has already begun, especially after their online to-and-fro.
