CLARESSA SHIELDS’ MEDIA WORKOUT QUOTES

PhilBoxing.com





BROOKLYN (MAY 20, 2025) – Ahead of her monumental homecoming, the GWOAT, Claressa Shields (16-0, 3 KOs), participated in an open media workout in Brooklyn at the esteemed Gleason’s Gym. Shields will return home on Saturday, July 26, when she puts her Undisputed Heavyweight World Championship on the line in the main event at Little Caesars Arena against the reigning IBF Light Heavyweight World Champion from New Zealand, Lani Daniels (11-2-2, 1 KO). Shields vs. Daniels will air live on the global home of boxing, DAZN. Shields, the most decorated female boxer in history, made headlines earlier this year by becoming the first woman ever to claim the Undisputed Heavyweight World Championship—and the first boxer, male or female, to achieve undisputed status in three weight divisions.

Tickets for the event at Little Caesars Arena are on sale now and can be purchased online at 313Presents.com and Ticketmaster.com or in person at The XFINITY Box Office at Little Caesars Arena.

Claressa Shields:

“I am super excited to be fighting against another world champion in Lani Daniels. She’s very confident, she’s from New Zealand, she wants the smoke, and she and her team are confident that they can come over here and get the upset. “

“I’m always happy to fight at Little Ceasars Arena. My team and I are working to make sure we sell this thing out - all 19,000 seats. Last time I was able to do 12,000 with just me doing my hard work, and now I have a team behind me that wants to do it. I look forward to fighting at LCA and putting on a great show. To me, this is my biggest fight.”

“I don’t know how good Lani Daniels is. I’ve seen film, and she’s pretty durable. She’s very, very tough. But after my last fight with Danielle Perkins, I know that I’m the toughest of them all. If I was able to fight Danielle Perkins and drop her in the 10th round … she may not have looked like she was a lot because I’m so great, but Danielle Perkins is highly avoided for a reason. And Lani Daniels didn’t want to fight her for a reason. I stepped up and fought against a bigger and stronger woman who had just as much experience as me, and we put on a great show.”

“I’m super excited to fight in Detroit. A woman boxer being able to fight in front of 12,000 people is great, but 19,000 is even better. I have continued to grow in my stardom and bring more things to women’s boxing than I ever thought that I could. To me, this is my biggest fight.”

I’m working on everything. I’m working on making sure I turn my punches over. I’m gonna hit Lani very, very hard to her face, to her chest and to her body. I’m working on breaking somebody mentally more than I am working on breaking them physically. Inside the ring, it’s still a mental fight, and I can’t wait to see how tough she is. She seems like she’s very tough, hearing her backstory and everything that she’s been through. But I know that I can do it.”
