    No it won’t because Shields will disarm her and putting a beating on her. The abuse about to be inflicted on Marshall you won’t believe. Don’t worry it’s not to long now. I just feel sorry for all my ESB friends the Shields haters when she ****s up their girl Marshall.

    Lol pillow fisted Shields, the Paulie M of women's boxing, couldn't punch her way out of an extremely thin paper bag.

    She is going to run all night. But Savannah will catch her and hurt her.

    No she is not all. She is going to outskill Marshall and take it to her and put her in a box. Peter Fury may have to rescue her.

    Some people have said Savannah relies too much on her power. I don't think that is the case. She is, with reason, confident that her power is on another level to her opponents, but as she said, she doesn't go looking for knock-outs- they seem to find her. Which is the way to get them. She builds a stoppage and when the opportunity presents itself, she doesn't go crazy with wild shots but picks her punches coolly. Peter Fury has said that he despises fighters who rely on their power, that they will come up short against a superior boxer. I'm pretty sure their plan is to neutralize, to outbox Claressa, and then and only then, if the opportunity presents, to beat her up and stop her.

    Claressa's skills are overrated, Savannah's predictably being underrated. Claressa built like Murat Gassiev's sister but punches like Paulie Malignaggi's niece.

    Fact is the women's bracket, especially above 140 is as shallow as a puddle in terms of depth and talent. Don't believe me? Well there are only 23 registered pros at MW and only a handful of them can fight. The #12 ranked female MW is 2-15-1 so I do rest my case. So in order to be the best you only have to be the best out of 23 and the majority of them can't fight so being the most skillful out of them isn't much to write home about. But fact is KOs are much rarer in women's boxing regardless of weight and Savannah's power is a real anomaly and we've seen what that power does to the common opponents she shares with Claressa and her last four opponents have only been stopped once in their careers and it was by her

    Claressa has scored 2 KOs in 12 fights, and even though she throws everything bar the kitchen sink at her opponents I only recall seeing her score one KD IIRC and she has been dropped hard herself too

    Savannah euthanized common opponent Hermans out cold in a couple of rounds with a solitary punch, Hermans lasted the full 10 against Claressa

    Exactly.
    Margarito vs Mosley, Valdez vs Berchelt, Liston vs Ali, Hearns vs Leonard

    lol! Leonard did not beay Hearns with skill he was getting out-boxed and his power got him out of trouble, Marshall has a reach advantage over Shields and a good jab, Hearns used his reach to out-jab Ray, then Ray`s power saved him, Shields doesn`t have that kind of power, Marshall is far quicker than Liston was.
