Female Boxing Star Claressa Shields Catches Two Reporters Off Guard

Double Olympic Gold medallist Claressa Shields of Flint, Michigan is understandably proud of her back to back Olympic triumphs.

A remarkable feat in fairness.

An achievement and boxer or athlete period would be rightly proud of.

In one recent interview with two reporters for DAZN YouTube (hat tip) they were curious to explore a rumor that they had heard about the American female boxing sensation recently.

They wanted to know is it true that she carries her two Olympic gold medals around with her everywhere she goes.

At all times…

Well, she caught them both off guard here when they popped the question to here.

Here’s the result they got:

Very good.

As regards her professional boxing career, world champion Shields takes on fellow champ Christina Hammer this weekend live on Showtime in an undisputed middleweight unification match up that sees all four world titles on the line (WBC, WBO, WBA and IBF).

The fight takes place at the Boardwalk in Atlantic City.
