“I’m feeling amazing training with my husband and just ready to get back,” said Gabriels. “She’s (Dwyer) a warrior will try to come and chop my head off, but we will send her back to Australia quick enough.”

“I want to thank all of my fans for supporting me always and showing me love even in defeat,” said the always gracious Gabriels. “That’s what makes me want it more and more. I want to fight Claressa and Cecilia and give my fans all I can before I leave the sport. I also want to thank my team because they’re amazing. بريان فاسكيز, زوجي, Hector Fernandez de Cordova, مدير أعمالي, Pedro Gonzalez and Esteban Quesada, my co-trainers and Dmitriy Salita for lending a hand when needed. I won’t disappoint you.”

Claressa Shields Is The BWAA’s 2018 الإناث مقاتلة من السنة

By Joseph Santoliquito/BWAA President

In a pivotal year for women’s boxing that saw the sport reach more
people than ever before, two-time United States Olympic gold medal
winner Claressa Shields continued to soar, as she successfully defended her two world middleweight titles, then added three super middleweight belts before the end of a campaign that earned her the 2018 كريستي
Martin Award, which is given to the Boxing Writers Association of
America’s Female Fighter of the Year.


“I am thrilled and honored to receive the Fighter of the Year award from the Boxing Writers Association of America. It is a dream come true, and it furthers my goal to lift women’s boxing to new levels,” Shields said.


“في 2019 my goals are to become undisputed champion, to be ranked in the top 10 pound-for-pound list regardless of gender, and to continue
the march of women’s boxing toward equality with men.”


The 23-year-old from Flint, Michigan becomes the second winner of the award, which was established in 2017. She will be honored at the
BWAA’s annual award dinner, which will take place in 2019 at a site and date to be determined.


“In such a big year for women’s boxing, it wasn’t a surprise that there
were so many worthy nominees for this award, ولكن في 2018, Claressa
Shields took things to a new level by becoming a two-division world
champion and successfully defending her titles at both 168 و 160
pounds in Showtime and HBO-televised bouts,” said Thomas Gerbasi,
chairman of the BWAA’s women’s boxing committee. “That’s impressive in its own right, but the fact that she’s done this all before her tenth pro
fight and under the glare of the spotlight that comes with being the face of the sport in the United States made her a unanimous choice for this
year’s Christy Martin Award.”


Joining Roy Jones Jr., Andre Ward and the late Emanuel Steward as
members of the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame’s Class of 2018, Shields began the year on a collision course with middleweight
champion Christina Hammer, but first she finished up her business at
168 pounds by successfully defending her IBF and WBC titles with a
shutout victory over Tori Nelson in January.

Next was Shields’ middleweight debut against Hanna Gabriels in June,
and what followed was a Fight of the Year candidate that saw Shields
rebound from the first knockdown of her career to win a clear-cut
decision and the IBF and WBA belts. Soon after, the news came that
Hammer had to withdraw from her November clash with Shields due to
إصابة, لكن “T-ريكس” didn’t slow down, as she defeated Hannah Rankin and Femke Hermans to successfully defend her middleweight titles while
adding the WBC crown to her trophy case.

“أشعر بالفخر,” تحدثت شيلدز عن إدخالها في قاعة مشاهير جمعية خريجي ملاكمة الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية,” أنا فقط 23 يبلغ عمرهم سنوات ويتم تجنيده في قاعة مشاهير الملاكمة الأمريكية شرفًا كبيرًا, ولكن أيضا صدمة بالنسبة لي. أعتقد أنني أستحق أي شرف, لكني أعلم أن الأشياء تستغرق وقتًا, وكنت أعتقد دائمًا أنني سأضع في قاعة المشاهير في العصر 40 أو 50. هذه مشكلة كبيرة بالنسبة لي وأشعر بالفخر الشديد. لمجرد ذكر اسمي إلى جانب أسماء عظماء مثل أندريه وارد وروي جونز يحفزني حقًا. أشعر بالفخر!”

Shields هي واحدة من القوى الدافعة في الملاكمة النسائية اليوم, حمل الشعلة التي سلمتها رواد الملاكمة الأمريكيين مثل كريستي مارتن, ليلى علي وعدد قليل من الآخرين.

 

 

 

“هناك تغيير كبير يحدث الآن — أنا, ميكايلا ماير, طواقم Franchon, كاتي تايلور, أماندا سيرانو وبعض النساء الأخريات يحملن الشعلة للملاكمة النسائية الآن,” شرح الدروع. “كان التقدم سريعًا, كل شبكة خاضت معركة نسائية على شاشات التلفزيون هذا العام, وخاصة شوتايم, التي قمت بتعبئة الحدث الرئيسي أربع مرات. يمكن أن تذهب الملاكمة النسائية بعيدًا. أعتقد أن اليوم سيأتي عندما ندفع للملايين تمامًا مثل الرجال.”

على الرغم من كل الأوسمة والكمالين, لقد استقبلت بشكل غني للغاية, لم ينس شيلدز أين بدأ كل شيء, وما زالت متورطة بنشاط في الملاكمة في الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية.

 

 

 

“أظل على اتصال مع الكثير من الرياضيات وأقدمهن نصيحة إذا سألتني,” وأضاف كلاريسا. “ذهبت أيضًا إلى كولورادو لمدة خمسة أيام لأكون حافزًا ومتحدثًا رئيسيًا عن الأمل الأولمبي القادم. بعد انتهاء مسيرتي 15 سنوات, أريد أن أكون مدربًا للملاكمة وأقود فريق النساء إلى المزيد من الميداليات الذهبية الأولمبية, إذا أعطيت الفرصة. أريد أيضًا أن أكون مدرسًا للمدرسة ومستشار للشباب.”

 

 

 

الدروع, مع الاسف, غير قادرة على حضور حفل استقبال قاعة المشاهير ليلة الجمعة لأنها في تدريب عميق للدفاع عن ألقابها مساء السبت في HBO, العيش من مركز StubHub في كارسون, كاليفورنيا, ضد Fenmke Hermans (9-1).

 

 

 

“للأسف,” واختتم شيلدز, “لا أستطيع أن أكون هناك ولكن, لو كنت هناك, أود أن أقول: شكراً للملاكمة الأمريكية على الإيمان بي في عصر 16. كان شرفًا لتمثيل أمريكا, ليس فقط مرة واحدة ولكن مرتين في الألعاب الأولمبية! أشكر المدرب هراوة (والش) لجعلني أحفر عميقًا, من خلال الاضطرار إلى التعامل مع طرقه الأيرلندية والنكات, أيضا لتغيير ثقافة الملاكمة الأمريكية. شكر خاص للمدرب كاي, أيضًا, لا يمكنني الاعتماد على يدي كم عدد الأيام التي تدربنا فيها 1 صباحا, كم مرة طرقت باب غرفته وركضت, كم مرة كان عليه أن يأخذ هاتفي مني لأنني كنت أبكي أو أواجه مشكلة عائلية. إنه المدرب الذي يمكنني إخباره بكل شيء, وباركني أيضًا بمعرفته في الملاكمة وجعلني أشعر دائمًا بالأمان في نفسي عندما كان في الزاوية. ملاكمة الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية ليست مجرد موظفين – الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية الملاكمة عائلة! على الرغم من أنني حصلت على بضع كلمات مع ماثيو جونسون وغيرهم من الموظفين, أشكرهم على أن يكونوا بجد علي والتأكد من تعاملتي مع مسؤولياتي. الحب لجميع موظفي الملاكمة بالولايات المتحدة الأمريكية, أنا ممتن حقًا.”

 

 

 

كلاريسا شيلدز أكثر بكثير من بطل العالم والأولمبي, إنها عمل صفي أيضًا, بالضبط ما هو مطلوب للغاية اليوم.

Training Camp Almost Complete; A Confident and On-Weight Claressa Shields Ready for Hannah Rankin DAZN Showdown on November 17

ترك تعليق

Women’s superstar and two-division world champion Claressa Shields is in Florida with trainer John David Jackson, finishing up preparations for her showdown with Glasgow, Scotland’s Hannahh Rankin on Saturday, تشرين الثاني 17, at the Kansas Star Arena and Casino in Mulvane, كانساس.

 

 

 

الدروع (6-0, 2 كوس) will defend her IBF and WBA World Middleweight Championships, and be looking to add the vacant WBC title, against Rankin (5-2, 1 KO) in the 10-round co-featured bout to Salita Promotions stablemate Jarrell Miller’s heavyweight showdown against Romania’s Bogdan Dinu.

 

 

 

Both fights, along with former world champion Brandon Rios taking on Canelo’s brother, رامون الفاريز, in a super welterweight 10-rounder and former two-time world middleweight title challenger Gabriel Rosado going against once-beaten contender Luis Arias, will be broadcast live on DAZN.

 

 

 

23-year-old Shields, a former two-time Olympic Gold Medallist, has reignited interest in women’s boxing and become a ratings favorite for her nationally televised championship exploits. A proud native of Flint, ميشيغان, Shields mixes her brash pronouncements of greatness with a genuine and continued effort to inspire female athletes and render aid to members of her home community.

 

 

 

Shields was originally scheduled to face WBC and WBO World Middleweight Champion Christina Hammer on November 17, but the bout was postponed after Hammer withdrew due to medical reasons.

 

Did the change of opponents from Hammer to Rankin affect your training?

 

 

 

I don’t train for my opponents, I just push to get the best out of me, جسديا وعقليا. If I’m the best ‘me,’ I don’t have to worry about who the opponent is. The change of opponents didn’t bother me at all; the worst thing about this camp for me was just all the date changes – constantly having to get my mind focused on the pace and timing of training depending on the fight date. لا أطيق الانتظار لدخول الحلبة!

 

You’ve fought at super middleweight 168 and recently at middleweight 160 جنيه. How is your training, diet and any other efforts different to make 160?

 

 

 

Training is always hard and I’m constantly learning. I’ve had a completely different diet this camp – a real change and a positive one for me. I’ve teamed up with Perfecting Athletes for my daily meals, and I feel great. I’ve always tried to eat healthy but these folks are pros and are more educated in that field than myself. I have this magic drink that makes my stomach smile – I love it! It’s watermelon mixed with a green vegetable. I’m not going to tell you what vegetable it is, but I’ve been drinking it everyday, and I feel GREAT.

 

Your viewership numbers have been very strong. Why do you think people are drawn to you?

 

 

 

I believe that people are drawn to how real and honest I am, الدخول والخروج من الحلبة على حد سواء. I say what I mean and mean what I say. I’m hard but I have a soft side also. And I think people are drawn to how I fight — not only do I talk a good game but I fight my a– off too! أعطي 1000% every time – I want to change the game and bring a whole new generation of fans to women’s boxing and boxing overall.

 

What do you know about your opponent Hannah Rankin?

 

 

 

I know that my opponent Rankin is very tough and determined to be a world champion. I like her drive, I like her heart. I know that she has been in the ring as a sparring partner for many champions, one being Christina Hammer. So Rankin has seen some good fighters. But one thing is for sure – she has never seen a fighter like me. And since Hammer couldn’t fight because of her medical condition, in many ways the next best thing is to fight and beat her sparring partner and let Rankin tell Hammer what she’s in for when she returns!

 

What needs to be done to solve the Flint water crisis?

 

 

To solve the flint Water crisis, I think that people should continue to give water and also keep it in the news that there is a city in America where, unbelievably, US citizens don’t have clean water. And hopefully the president or our governor do something to fix all the pipes.

 

What’s the secret to becoming the best of the best in any sport?

 

 

 

I believe the secret starts with believing in yourself, being dedicated, working hard and just always striving to be better. I feel I’m my biggest critic when I train and box. It’s hard to watch film of my fights because even though I’m doing 97 things right I just can’t stand to see the 3 things I’m doing wrong. I’m a person who strives to pull out my full potential. It takes guts to be great. Nothing will stand in the way of achieving my goals, which includes being the GWOAT and creating equality for all women fighters when it comes to the money, opportunities and coverage the men get.
