    This video whets the appetite for Claressa Shields vs Savannah Marshall. I am backing Shields the GWOAT to do a job on Marshall because one thing we do know about boxing is skills pay the bills. Many others on here are backing Marshall to win and want to see Shields humbled. Marshall is not a naturally confident person. She choked at the 2012 Olympics and she will choke on the big stage. Shields is made for the big stage. Marshall needs to feel comfortable so left to her she would want this fight in Hartlepool but Shields insisted on London as Marshall did not have the cojones to have this fight in the USA. Marshall is going to be shocke£ when her so called power has no effect on Shields and she receives a proper ass kicking from Shields superior skills set. Don’t be surprised if Marshall quits or Peter Fury throws in the towel.

    Agreed. Marshall gets her butt whooped badly

    Rubbish.

    I have a feeling this fight is about mental control. I bet both of them get adrenaline dumps absolutely crapping their pants and gassing out in 6 rounds. Who can compose themselves and drain the tank will win. Based on a pure boxing eye Marshall takes it every day of the week.

    Both of them put of a very brave face but like even the best when that walk out comes they will both be feeling it.

    Clarissa you can run but you can't hide.
    When Savannah catches you, and she will, you're going to be in a world of pain.

    TKO Savannah rnd 6.

    Can't wait.

    Marshall throws a better punch and boxes well enough to catch and hurt Shields. I think Marshall stops a brave Shields within about 7 rounds. It's definitely going to be a great fight.

    if claressa 'pillow fists' shields doesnt have a granite chin, she gets destroyed. If she does, she loses on points. Another loss just like when they met in the amateurs :)

    Marshall will win any way she wants. Wilder in a wig just got to the belts first, she's nothing special.

    So what happened a few months before that when Savannah Marshall beat Claressa Shields' ass at the 2012 World Championships and went on to win the Gold medal. She certainly didn't 'choke on the big stage' there ;)

    it's 1-0 already, it'll be 2-0 soon :)

    agree, I thought Shields looked very ordinary in her last fight.

    I think the fight is gonna be great and everything, but I don't expect it to go 10. Someone's getting stopped, and I'm thinking that it's gonna be Claressa. Savannah's power is gonna overwhelm her late in the fight. Shields is gonna succumb to the constant pressure.

    She choked at the Olympics did Marshall. She will choke again as she receives the beating from Michigan where the best boxers in history come from in the mid west USA.

    Shields 'choked' at the 2012 World Championships then!

    The greatest ever Michigan fighter was Polish. Stanley Ketchel :deal: ( aka Stanislaw Kiecal)

    The beauty of this will be displayed next week when Marshall loses her 0.

    Shields won't lose a single round to Marshall. She is way above Marshall, skillwise.

    It will be the female version of Usyk vs Joshua.

    I'm glad Olugbenga is that confident in Shields beating Marshall. We all know he DKSAB as he thought Joshua would beat Usyk. :risas3:
