    Taylor is one of the greatest female boxers of all-time but is Claressa right with her claim to fame?

    In what way? Are you defending Claressa? Taylor is an elite female fighter.

    There are no stars in women's boxing right now. Shields deserves zero attention.

    She's more famous than Katie Taylor, in the United States market. The same way Wilder was more famous than Fury in the United States market.

    Taylor/Fury were always bigger stars in the UK, and as for worldwide - depends on the region, I guess (ie where in the Anglosphere you're talking about - because outside of it, aside from hardcore boxing fans, you're not going to find many people who know Wilder or Fury - let alone Shields or Taylor).

    Wait, women are boxing? I’ll have to watch right after I catch the WNBA. Maybe Oscar can have a comeback as a chick. Wear those fishnets in the ring. I’ll pay to see him face Claressa. Oscar would be the more feminine one.

    Im not sure of the Fury and Wilder scenario any more.. Fury is the most popular HW boxer in the US right now.. Top Rank did an excellent job promotion wise for him this past year.. My son watches WWE and knew exactly who Fury was going into the rematch

    Katie Taylor got beaten from pillar to post by a full-time police officer and got a lucky, typical Matchroom decision. As did Josh Kelly on that same card, when he really did lose to Ray Robinson.
