Shields vs. Perkins: Multiple Titles on the Line

Claressa Shields is set to defend her WBC heavyweight title against Danielle Perkins in Flint, Michigan, with the vacant WBA, IBF, and WBO belts also on the line. Shields, who holds an undefeated record of 15-0, aims to become the undisputed champion in three different weight classes, showcasing her dominance across multiple divisions. Despite her inexperience, Perkins, with a 5-0 record, brings size and power, weighing slightly more than Shields. The fight, part of a 'Super Fight Sunday' event, will be broadcast live on DAZN, with ring walks scheduled for 11:00 p.m. ET. Shields remains confident, dismissing any threat from Perkins and even challenging YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul. The event includes other notable bouts like Brandon Moore vs. Skylar Lacy and Pryce Taylor vs. Jerrell Nettles, offering a full night of heavyweight action.
