Shields, 29, turned to her X handle and asked for prayers from the fans, as she disclosed that she was lucky to have sanity prevail over her senses. In addition, she banked her faith in God and even asked her fans to rally behind her and pray for her family. But the fans might have to wait for a while before the two-division undisputed champion discloses the incident to them.

Shields, at 15-0, wrote, “I thank God for my sanity…. Just received some scary news…. Just pray for my family…. God going to work it out. I know he will 🙏🏾”

Notably, Shields is promoting her upcoming biopic, ‘The Fire Inside,’ which tells her story of picking up boxing gloves, becoming an Olympic champion at 17, and then dominating the professional boxing landscape. The project, due to release in December, also sheds light on her personal life, giving a peep into her tumultuous family, as she hoped to become a boxer in her early days.

Katie Taylor VS Claressa Shields

With a recent win over Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse, ‘GWOAT’ has also clinhed the heavyweight title, and looks set to solidify her place in both the heavyweight and middleweight divisions. However, she has her eyes set on defeating the best that boxing has to offer.

Before she took on Lepage-Joanisse, Shields issued an open challenge to the likes of Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor. The Flint native declared, “Any of those girls who want to be the GWOAT, all you got to do is make the fight with me. Alycia Baumgardner, Amanda Serrano, Katie Taylor – all you got to do is make the fight with me. Then I can show you, you’re not the GWOAT.”

However, there are weight constraints in making these fights, and therefore, these fights seem a distant reality to boxing fans. But that doesn’t put an end to Shields’ ambitions, as she also had her PLF exploits to show up for.
