Before her return to the ring, Claressa Shields (16-0, 3 KOs) participated in a media workout in Brooklyn, New York, at the historic Gleason’s Gym.
Shields will return to the ring on Saturday, July 26, when she puts her Undisputed Heavyweight Championship on the line in the main event of a card to be held at Little Caesars Arena in Flint, Michigan, against New Zealand`s Lani Daniels (11-2-2, 1 KO).
By capturing the Undisputed Heavyweight Championship, Shields became the first boxer, male or female, to hold the undisputed title in three divisions.
This is what she had to say after her workout:
“I’m super excited to fight another world champion, Lani Daniels. She’s very confident, she’s from New Zealand, she wants to pull off an upset, and she and her team are confident they can come here and win.
“I’m always happy to fight at Little Caesars Arena. My team and I are working hard to put on a great show. I don’t know how good Lani Daniels is. I’ve seen videos, and she’s pretty tough. She’s very, very tough. But after my last fight with Danielle Perkins, I know I’m the toughest of them all.”
Tickets for the Little Caesars Arena event are on sale now and can be purchased online at 313Presents.com and Ticketmaster.com or in person at the XFINITY Box Office at Little Caesars Arena.
