    Sorry, I was going to respond the other day, but I was fighting with someone. So I forgot.:lol: Fair enough, however... arguably, Marshall very much has fought at the same level and proved herself to be much better than Christina Hammer based on their one shared opponent. Marshall dominated far more comprehesively and TKO'd Hannah Rankin, who Shields was only capable of beating by UD. Hammer beat Lindberg by lopsided UD, Marshall better her performance by a mile. Brutally dispatching Lindberg in 3. Now, I know boxing doesn't always work that way, but it still doesn't keep people drawing certain conclusions based on that kind of evidence. Clearly Marshall power wise, is the most dangerous opponent in and around that division in quite some time and skill wise she's proven to be every bit, if not better than Shields and Hammer. So IMO, it's comparable to saying Shields is to Shawn Porter, as Marshall is to Jaron Ennis. We know Porter on paper is far more accomplished, but Ennis in all likelihood would tear through guys like Formella and Granados with relative ease, and most likely beat Danny Garcia and Ugas more effectively. Because of the eye test alone.

    That's what makes this match up so intriguing. I can't wait for it. May the best woman win.
