CLARESSA SHIELDS has added another knockout to her resume and has solidified as one of the most decorated female boxers who step into the ring.
Shields dropped Daniel Parkins in less than 20 seconds in the 10th and final round of the championship match, and impressed the ruling victory by unanimous decisions (100-89, 97-92, 99-90). I did it. In front of the noisy cooperation of the Dort Financial Center in Michigan, the Shields (16-0, 3 KOs), the Michigan Frint, on Sunday night of her hometown, the title of three different weights was not discussed. A class with no discussions in order to become the first boxer to acquire. Parkins (5-1, 2 KOS) fought to the end, but ended the battle on the mat.
The shield came out on the forefoot with early pressure. Using her speed advantage, Shields closed the gap between her and a larger perkins, entered the range consistently, and threw a bundle of right hooks and overhand.
Parkins endured the attack, found more energy in the last three rounds, began to land with powerful jabs and upper cuts on the shield, but eventually bitten the attack. Perkins was looking for a slow finish, but left himself on the big right hook that dropped her to end the battle in the last few seconds.
Shields-perkins found nine battle nights in a “vehicle city”, including the battle of four women. Brandon Moore won a joint main event via Skirer Lacey due to the empty USBA men’s heavyweight title. Joseph Hicks and Joshua James Pagan, the other three other boxers of Leon Lawson III, Michigan, also won the battle between Hicks and Lawson, who won the technical knockout.
Shields became the first American heavyweight, man or woman who won a championship in 1992, with no argument.
