Claressa Shields shines in her first ever MMA fight against Brittany Elkin in a 3rd round stoppage. The first two rounds seemed like troubled waters for the Flint, Michigan rising star but her corner put the battery in her back to “Dog Her ” out. Shield’s actually kicked open a door for professional boxers who may be thinking about diversifying their portfolio in other combat sports.
So what’s next for the undisputed light middleweight champion? I believe with her passion, drive, hard-work and dedication Claressa can achieve anything she wants to. Check out her post MMA fight interview below.
Happy to get the W, so ready to keep learning. So happy that my team @JacksonWinkMMA had me well prepared! Excited to Continue to grow! #GWOAT 3rd KO pic.twitter.com/COuyQS5OQY
