“This man won what we used to call the biggest individual prize in global sport, twice, 21 years apart, as two different fighters, and even more to the point, as two different human beings.”

Lani won the heavyweight and light heavyweight IBF belts in 2023, and defended the light heavyweight strap last September.
In 2024 Shields won the WBC heavyweight belt/WBO light heavyweight belt in a bout at 175lb against Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse.
Shields has weighed 173-175lb for her last two fights and become the “undisputed heavyweight champion,” yet she has not beaten her No.1 rival in this weight range: Lani Daniels.
“There’s been a lot of talk back and forth about who’s the greatest heavyweight of all times. I never had the pleasure of seeing Jack Dempsey, who’s a very dear friend, but from those that I have seen, I think Joe Louis.”
- Sugar Ray Robinson (1968)
@JB4t00n@PaulaThe1@Claressashields Two years ago Jonas (WBC/IBF/WBO/Ring) and Harper (WBA) had all the belts at 154. Shields was P4P No.1 and Lineal champ at 154. Team Shields made an offer to Jonas, which was declined. Soon afterwards, Jonas and Harper dropped back down in weight.
“These girls at 154, these girls at 147 are not willing to come to 154 and fight me. They’ll fight against each other, but when it comes to me, these girls are saying no.”
The QUEEN at 154-heavyweight is @Claressashields
Is Shields the most AVOIDED fighter in boxing?
@MarkTaffetMedia@Claressashields “Yes, an offer was made (by Team Shields) and it was rejected.”
