Claressa Shields: I would definitely beat Savannah MarshallDAZN
The boxing legend is aiming for revenge.

Claressa Shields hopes to take on Savannah Marshall on the undercard of the forthcoming Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury fight, and believes she is the certain favourite.

Marshall will defend her WBO middleweight belt on the April 10 Conor Benn card, and is the last person who defeated Shields. The pair fought in an amateur fight in 2012, with Savannah winning.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Shields said: "I'm there. They are building Savannah up to make people think it. This fight is only considered because of how great I am.

"If I didn't have all these Olympic gold medals and accolades, nobody would care about a fight between me and Savannah.

"I bounced back from that loss [to Marshall in the amateurs] to win two Olympics then turn pro and be outstanding, that's why this fight would be huge.

"Is it going to be a back-and-forth brawl? No. I would be as dominant as I am against every other fighter. Probably more dominant because she speaks so much and I want to beat her up.”

Shields is the first boxer to become undisputed champion in two four-belt divisions.

"I would love to get a fight with Savannah," she continued.

"Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury are fighting twice and I would love for me and Savannah to be co-main event.

"We could fight for all the world titles at 160lbs.

"It's a fight I would definitely win so it would be great to do it on a worldwide stage."
