A native of Flint, Mich., Shields (5-0, 2 Biaya) was the first American boxer in history – male or female – to win consecutive Olympic Gold Medals. The 23-year-old turned professional following the 2016 Olympics and became unified women’s super middleweight world champion in just her fourth professional fight.

If both Shields and Hammer are victorious in their 160-pound bouts on June 22, they will meet in a fall blockbuster on SHOWTIME to determine the undisputed women’s middleweight world champion.

 

How has training camp been so far?

“Training camp has been great. It’s been fun and I’ve been working my butt off. I can’t wait to step in the ring with another champion and make history by winning the world title in my second weight division!"

What can fans expect from you on June 22?

“The fans can expect for me to fight like I’m Okoye from Wakanda! I’ve never been more motivated, more ready, and more able to take on the challenges and achieve my goals. Saya ingin melawan yang terbaik, and I want to be the best ever. I will give everything onJune 22 against Hanna Gabriels to win a world title in my second weight division, then I want Christina Hammer, so we can unify all the middleweight belts, and then my sights will be on getting to the 154-pound world title.”

 

What are some of your future goals in boxing?

“I want to lift women’s boxing for all the women past, present and future. I want equality for women and men in boxing. I want to be recognized as one of the pound-for-pound best in the sport among both men and women, no gender labels. And I want to be known as the best female boxer ever. Saya siap. Come to Detroit on June 22 and see me live, watch me on SHOWTIME, and join the team as we make history!"

What have you learned training with John David Jackson?
“Coach John is very knowledgeable, he’s been working with me on my patience. He admires the beast inside of me, but just wants me to control it more and be smart. He’s been to the biggest battles with some great world champions, and I’m glad to have his experience and knowledge on my team.”

What is your typical day like in camp?
“A typical day in camp can go according to either of two plans. Plan 1 is I wake up at 9 adalah, make myself a small breakfast (2 boiled eggs, 2 pieces of turkey bacon and some steamed asparagus) or a fruit smoothie. Di 11 am I’m at the gym training. By1:30 pm, I’m at the gym. My workout usually consists of bag drills, mitt work, shadow boxing, tali lompat, speed bag and ring drills. Then I either swim or run at 6 pm the same day. On the days I do Plan 2, I still wake at 9 am and have my breakfast and then 11 am-1:30 pm, I’m in the gym. But right after that, I do strength and conditioning, which consists of box jumps, dumb bell squats, some drills with weights for my upper body, or a four-mile run.”

Have you made any changes to your training and nutrition for your first fight at middleweight?
“Right after my fight with Tori Nelson, I knew I would be fighting next at middleweight, so I stayed in the gym three times a week until Mark (Taffet) told me we secured June 22 on SHOWTIME against Hanna Gabriels. But to properly make middleweight, I had to learn about my body some more. Losing weight is more about a routine than it is about eating less food. The good thing for me is that I like healthy food – my body and mind feel best when I eat that way. The only difference in camp is I eat smaller portions of the food I like and drink a lot more water. This camp I’ve been heavy on fish, all kinds of fish from cod, salmon, Atlantic salmon — with sides of asparagus, sweet potatoes, rice or spinach. And body clock is important, so no eating after 7 pm. I’m feeling great and will be in the best shape of my life when I get in that ring on June 22.”

Who are your sparring partners?

“So far, I’ve sparred with Matt Korobov and Daniyar Yelluisar. I love to spar with men – I find that the strength and speed helps me get the most out of the sparring.”

What have you done differently in preparation for this fight?

“Well I always say this, but I don’t get ready to face my opponents – my trainer John David Jackson focuses more on the opponent than I do. I just get prepared to be the best version of me. I’ve seen film of Hannah and I’m not impressed – I know she’s a champion and I respect that, but I’ve never seen a woman who can stay in the ring with me. It’ll take two of her to even have a chance at beating me.”

Shields controlled from opening to closing bell, sweeping 100-90 on all three judges’ scorecards in the first 10-round distance fight of her career. Itu 2012 dan 2016 Olympic Gold Medalist out-landed Nelson 225-81 with her total punches, 186-70 in powers shots, and connected at a 44 percent clip with her power shots compared to just 20 percent for Nelson.

 

 

 

“I landed every shot that I thought possible to land,” kata Perisai. “She was tough, she wasn’t a pushover. She put on a good fight.”

 

 

 

Shields advanced to 5-0 with two knockouts in what was likely her final fight in the super middleweight division. The 22-year-old now has her sights set on the middleweight division where she will eventually target undefeated and Unified Women’s Middleweight World Champion Christina Hammer, who was ringside Hari Jumat di Verona.

 

 

 

“I have to drop down and see how I feel (lebih dulu),” kata Perisai. “I think I could make 160 mudah, I’m going to be bigger and stronger than any girl.

 

 

 

“Hammer just wants to scope. I think she’s pretty scared to be honest. She is more worried about me than I am about her. I’m going to kick Hammer’s ass. People think Hammer is more skilled than me so I can’t wait to show her that she’s not.”

 

 

 

Palu, who is expected to fight in a co-featured bout on the next Shields card, was interviewed by SHOWTIME analyst Steve Farhood and expressed excitement to make her U.S. debut and eventually face the American champion.

 

 

 

“It’s a great combination me and her on the same card,” Hammer said. “I can’t wait to show the fans who Christina Hammer is. That will be the best fight ever. It will be the game-changer for female boxing. It’s our time to shine.

The former world champion Nelson (17-1-3, 2 Biaya) became the 173rd undefeated fighter to suffer their first professional loss on ShoBox: Generasi Baru.

 

 

 

“I’m not happy because I didn’t win, but other than that I thought I executed pretty well,” said the 41-year-old Nelson. “I gave her a better fight than she was expecting.

 

 

 

“No disrespect to Claressa, she doesn’t have great power. She has great speed and she overwhelms you with a lot of punches. My movement threw her off like I knew it would but knowing she was the champion, I needed to just push a little bit more.”

 

 

 

Dalam ShoBox co-fitur, Jesse Hernandez narrowly defeated Ernesto Garza via split-decision in an action-packed fight that was scored 95-94 Hernandez, 95-93 Garza, 97-93 Hernandez.

 

 

 

After a close first round, Garza floored Hernandez with a flush left hand to the nose in the closing moments of the second round.

“I think it should have been a unanimous decision,” Hernandez said. “I’ve always been a slow starter and I feel like I lost the first two rounds, especially with the knockdown. But I won pretty much every round after that, I maybe lost three rounds.

 

 

 

“I’m not completely happy with my performance. I have to control my distance and my range a little bit better. I need to go back to the gym and work on those things. Before the summer comes I hope to have another fight and I hope it’s on SHOWTIME.

 

 

 

“I give Garza a lot of credit for getting in the ring and knocking me down. He hung in there for 10 rounds even after I caught him with some good shots. He was able to withstand those shots, but all that said, I still think it should have been a unanimous decision.”

 

 

 

Garza countered that sentiment.

 

 

 

“I thought it was a bogus decision,” Garza said. “I don’t understand that last judge’s card. I was happy with everything that I did. I executed well and did everything I needed to do to win the fight.

 

 

 

“I’m really disappointed with the outcome. I felt that I won. Untuk me, I won a majority of the rounds and I knocked him down. I know knocking your opponent down usually leads to you winning the fight.”

 

 

 

Undefeated Uzbekistan power-puncher Shohjahon Ergashev handed Sonny Fredrickson the first loss of his career with an impressive third round TKO in the opening bout of the ShoBox siaran televisi.

All of Ergashev’s 61 connects in the bout were power shots, and he connected on 77 percent of his power punches in the third and final round.

 

 

 

“The ref saved him,” Ergashev said. “If he let him stay on his feet any longer I would have knocked him out. He couldn’t handle my power.

 

 

 

“At this stage of my career, I am in the best shape of my life and the best I have felt. This is my time right now, especially because I am training with Rick (Phillips) dan (Javan) Gula Pasir (Hill Steward). That’s what leads to all of my knockout power.

 

 

 

“I’m ready for whatever comes next. I’m ready for more fights in the U.S., and I want to keep getting more exposure to show off my skills. I’m ready to fight anybody in America.”

KUTIPAN FINAL:

 

 

CLARESSA SHIELDS:

 

 

“Tori membawa lebih banyak agresi, a lot more fight than a lot of my previous opponents. Di atas kertas, dia memiliki resume terbaik dari setiap lawan yang saya hadapi dan dapat memasang melawan yang lebih baik.

 

 

 

“Semua orang meremehkan saya karena ukuran saya. bingkai saya terlihat seperti aku 140 tapi benar-benar aku 168. Semua orang masuk ke perkelahian berpikir mereka bisa menang, but once that right hand lands everything changes. I’m going to go after her in the first round and get her out of there like Nikki Adler.

 

 

 

“Saya berharap lawan saya untuk menerapkan tekanan, dan menggunakan beberapa taktik kotor. Dia memiliki lebih banyak pengalaman, tapi tidak banyak ketika Anda berbicara tentang pengalaman amatir nya.

 

 

 

“She’s confident and she believes in herself. She thinks I haven’t earned my place yet. She doesn’t think I throw hard punches. Speed is power. She doesn’t get that.

 

 

 

“Ini telah menjadi kamp keras, Aku benar-benar mendorong diriku. Saya biasanya melakukan enam minggu, kali ini aku delapan minggu. Aku tidak berjuang sejak Agustus jadi saya ingin memberi diriku tambahan dua minggu jadi aku tahu aku dalam bentuk yang sempurna.

 

 

 

“Tidak ada keraguan bahwa saya mulai tahun ini dengan kemenangan, tapi saya melihat ini sebagai pertarungan kompetitif. Aku akan harus mendapatkan kemenangan tapi saya percaya saya bisa KO nya dengan keenam, ronde ketujuh.”

 

 

 

TORI NELSON:

 

 

“Aku tahu aku underdog, tapi aku sudah menjatuhkan sembilan orang. Dia belum mencetak satu knockdown belum sebagai pro. Ketika Claressa berbalik pro, Aku tahu aku harus menghadapi dia akhirnya.

 

 

 

“Kemenangan adalah apa yang saya datang untuk. I expect nothing different. I hope it would expose female boxing and not only open doors for me, tapi petinju wanita lainnya datang setelah saya.

 

 

 

“Saya merasa itu lebih menghibur untuk menonton pertarungan perempuan. Ketika perempuan mendapatkan menjatuhkan, mereka mendapatkan hak kembali dan pergi setelah itu lagi. Ketika laki-laki mendapatkan knocked down, mereka mulai bersembunyi karena mereka tidak ingin terkena lagi. Jadi saya pikir kita harus dibayar hanya sebanyak laki-laki.

 

 

 

“Saya diberkati untuk berada di sini, but I’m not a winner until I complete what I came here to do. And that’s win. The odds are definitely against me, tapi aku akan mengejutkan dunia.

 

 

 

“I want to take her into the deep waters. We don’t think she can beat us in a 10-round fight.

 

 

 

“Mereka tidak akan memberikan apa-apa. I have to be a dog and go in there and win this fight. I’ve always been aggressive. Why change anything for her?"

 

 

 

JESSE HERNANDEZ

 

 

“Aku hanya berusaha untuk lebih dekat dengan pertarungan gelar. Bergerak naik peringkat adalah tujuan utama sekarang, dan aku di jalan yang benar. Kemenangan di sini dalam pertarungan 10 ronde akan menjadi besar untuk karir saya.

 

 

 

“Menjadi seorang pejuang all-around adalah sesuatu yang saya sedang bekerja pada. Tapi Anda tidak bisa menjadi seorang pejuang baik-bulat sampai Anda mendapatkan pengalaman dan perkelahian dan itulah yang saya kerjakan lakukan sekarang. Saya ingin mendapatkan lebih banyak putaran di dan kemajuan.

 

 

 

“Memerangi kidal bukan masalah bagi saya. Saya dapat beralih sikap saya, tapi itu bukan sesuatu yang saya pikirkan atau rencana. Itu hanya terjadi secara alami dalam perkelahian.

 

 

 

“Saya selalu percaya pada diri sendiri, bahkan ketika saya mengambil cuti. Saya percaya bahwa saya bisa kembali ke dalamnya dan sampai ke tingkat atas. The wins over two undefeated fighters did a lot for my confidence. I knew I could do it, tapi itu menunjukkan orang lain saya milik dan bahwa saya bisa bersaing di tingkat atas.”

 

 

 

ERNESTO GARZA

 

 

“Saya ingin membawa tekanan, and he’s a pressure fighter too. We’ll see who backs up once we start throwing punches.

 

 

 

“I like to face fighters who come forward like him so I think everything will work for me. I plan on applying the pressure, mendapatkan dia lelah di putaran kedua, dan mengambil dia keluar.

 

 

 

“Dia cenderung untuk beralih, but I think that’s when he gets off-balance. He won’t bring anything I haven’t seen before.

 

 

 

“I’m fighting at my natural weight class this time. My last fight on ShoBox (terhadap terkalahkan Jon Fernandez) Saya berjuang berat jauh lebih tinggi.

 

 

 

“I don’t think his height and reach will give me any issues. I’ve been working with a lot of guys in the gym who have similar size and style. We’re ready for anything.

 

 

 

“A win would be a great step for me and my career. All the doors would open up for us.”

 

 

 

Setelah Shakh:

 

 

“Saya suka melatih di sini karena fakta bahwa itu adalah suasana yang berbeda di sini di Amerika. Ini setup profesional sejati, Saya merasa bahwa keterampilan saya dan teknik saya mendapatkan banyak pelatihan yang lebih baik di sini dengan Sugar Hill.

 

 

 

“Saya tahu bahwa ia adalah seorang pejuang yang berpengalaman. Dia tak terkalahkan dan dia datang untuk melawan. Ini kesempatan besar bagi kami berdua.

 

 

 

“Saya sangat terhormat berada di SHOWTIME dan senang untuk mendapatkan jenis eksposur nasional. Kemenangan akan semen saya sebagai salah satu prospek welter junior terbaik di dunia.

 

 

 

“Aku sudah latihan jauh lebih baik di Gym Kronk Tinju di Detroit. kamp pelatihan terakhir adalah pengenalan gaya Amerika tinju dan kamp ini benar-benar meningkatkan teknik dan taktik dengan perdebatan intens.

 

 

 

"Saya m 11-0 dengan 11 KO. Saya puncher dan saya ingin mengetuk dia keluar, tapi aku sudah dilatih untuk jarak. Saya sudah dilatih untuk mengetuk seseorang keluar di babak pertama dan babak kedelapan.

 

 

 

“Ini adalah langkah besar-up dalam oposisi, tapi aku sudah lebih 200 perkelahian amatir terhadap beberapa petinju amatir terbaik di dunia. Aku sudah mengalahkan peraih medali Olimpiade dan pejuang amatir sangat dicapai.”

 

 

 

SONNY Fredrickson

 

 

“Saya sudah menunggu paparan ini untuk waktu yang lama. Aku sudah berusaha untuk mendapatkan di TV selama dua atau tiga tahun terakhir, jadi ini adalah kesepakatan besar bagi saya. Mudah-mudahan kemenangan benjolan saya naik ke atas 5 dan memberi saya tembakan gelar pada akhir tahun ini atau awal tahun depan.

 

 

 

“Kami berdebat banyak dengan Robert (Paskah). It’s back-and-forth action. We grew up together and learn a lot from each other. Saya memberinya beberapa petunjuk di sana-sini dan dia melakukan hal yang sama untuk saya.

 

 

 

“Saya tidak tahu terlalu banyak tentang lawan saya. Aku tahu dia kidal dan dia memiliki pukulan yang kuat. Dia cocok untuk saya. Dia ingin terus datang ke depan dan tanah tembakan besar sehingga saya akan dapat kotak keluar dia cukup mudah.

 

 

 

“Saya tidak berpikir saraf akan menjadi faktor. Saya telah berjuang pada kartu Andre Ward, Aku sudah dalam perkelahian besar sebelum.

 

 

 

“Aku akan mengetuk dia keluar setelah putaran ketiga. Aku akan mengatakan, hei, mendapatkan dia keluar dari sini.

 

 

 

“Setelah laga ini, fans akan mulai belajar nama saya. Saya pikir mereka akan ingin melihat saya memiliki tembakan di 140 judul pound.”
