Claressa Shields and Savannah Marshall finally clash in an undisputed middleweight title fight at the O2 Arena in London tonight.
The clash between the long-time rivals was delayed following the death of Queen Elizabeth II and will headline an historic night of UK women’s boxing.
The pair have been rivals for ten years now, after Marshall got the better of the American in an amateur bout back in 2012, a feat that has not been matched since as she remains the only fighter to have ever beaten Shields.
Since then though it’s Shields who has had the more decorated career, undisputed in two different weight classes and she defends her WBA, IBF and WBC belts in London tonight.

Earlier in the night on an all-female card featuring 11 fights and 22 women, Mikaela Mayer faces Alycia Baumgardner in what should be a thrilling fight.
