Pro boxer and MMA fighter, Claressa Shields has clapped back at the internet trolls. The boxing legend made a switch to mixed martial arts this year and recently fought in her second professional MMA fight. She faced Abigail Montes at PFL 10 and suffered her first professional defeat, losing by a split decision.
After the loss, lots of people trolled the multiple-time boxing champion for her performance. Before the fight, she was involved in an online spat with a few fans. That led to Shields making her Twitter account private for some time. She recently took to the social media platform again to clap back at the internet trolls. In her recent post, she wrote, “Y’all take social media serious, I take my legacy serious. We are not the same.”
