Claressa Shields believes Savannah Marshall will fold under the pressure of their undisputed title fight, and she'll be back in MMA before year's end.
Shields and Marshall have had a long-standing bitter rivalry that will finally come to a head at The O2 arena in London on September 9 in a middleweight title clash which could crown the best women's boxer in the world. And Shields is so confident that she will defeat the Brit on home soil that she's already eyeing up a return to MMA in the PFL.
No date has been confirmed for Shields' next outing under the promotion's banner, but she has played a central role in promoting their events in recent months. Yesterday, she and Anthony Pettis along with other PFL officials and fighters rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange, with a poster of her adorning the walls of the historic building.
