    Shields looked damn good, best I’ve seen her look. Nothing appealing about her interview but there’s no denying her ability. She made Hammer look like an amateur. She looked faster than I’ve seen her before, and her defense was much improved.

    Shields talking trash like Ali and moving like Sweet Pea.

    Happy to see you're now a fan of no defense having dunderheaded come forward inaccurate flailing brawlers.

    Sweet Pea? Really? :lol: You've never actually watched Shields have you?

    She definitely raised her game, she's shown flashes of brilliance before but put it all together for this fight, she's never looked better as a pro.

    Hammer lacks variety, she has that old standard Euro style, hands high, jab and right hand, no head movement, it looks nice in terms of fundamentals but it's never going to be enough to overcome a more complete and versatile fighter like Shields. I thought she'd be able to establish her jab more but Shields took it away completely by simply waiting for the jab and countering.
