Flinty gaze of arch rivals Shields and Gabriels<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One of the best fighters in history Claressa Shields, will defend her undisputed middleweight title on June 3 at the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan, against the Costa Rican Hanna Gabriels, in an attractive rematch that will be broadcast by DAZN.<\/p>\n

Both fighters were face to face at a press conference held at Little Caesars Arena, where several Detroit champions and contenders were present, namely Thomas “Hitman” Hearns, Hilmer Kenty, Bronco McKart and Tony Harrison.<\/p>\n

This will be the first time Shields has fought in the United States since 2021, when she became the undisputed junior middleweight champion by defeating Marie-Eve Dicaire in her hometown of Flint, Michigan.<\/p>\n

Gabriels is the only fighter to have knocked Shields down during her career, sending her to the canvas in the first round of a fight Claressa ultimately won via unanimous decision.
\nGabriels (21-2-1, 12 KOs), 40, won his next three fights after losing to Shields and captured the WBC heavyweight title.<\/p>\n

Shields, 28, last fought in October at London’s O2 Arena, where she defeated Savannah Marshall by unanimous decision for the undisputed middleweight title. The win had avenged Shields’ only boxing loss (13-0, 2 KOs) in her amateur career.<\/p>\n
