A landmark night for women’s boxing will play out at the O2 Arena in London tonight, as old foes Claressa Shields and Savannah Marshall clash to crown an undisputed middleweight champion.
The pair met in the ring as amateurs, with Briton Marshall outpointing her American rival, who is out for revenge in their rematch this weekend – a month after the fight was postponed following the death of the Queen.
Shields, 27, carries the WBA, WBC, WBF and IBF middleweight titles into the O2 Arena, while Marshall, 31, puts the WBO belt on the line.
Each woman is unbeaten as a professional at 12-0, though Marshall has 10 knockouts compared to Shields’ two.
