Laila Ali Responds to Claressa Shields $15M Fight Offer
Boxing legend Laila Ali has addressed Claressa Shields' $15 million challenge to come out of retirement for a fight, stating she will respond when she is ready, emphasizing that she makes decisions on her own terms. Shields, currently undefeated with a 16-0 record, has persistently pushed for the bout, viewing it as a significant event for women's boxing and culture. Ali, also undefeated with a 24-0 record and retired since 2007, previously demanded $15 to $20 million to consider the fight and has maintained a firm stance on timing and conditions. The rivalry has included online exchanges, with Shields calling Ali a "bitter old person" and Ali acknowledging Shields as a top competitor but showing no immediate interest in returning to the ring. Despite Shields securing the $15 million offer and publicly presenting it, Ali remains noncommittal, insisting on patience and control over if and when she answers. The potential fight remains a hot topic in boxing circles, symbolizing a clash of generations between two iconic female athletes.
