- That boxer is Claressa Shields, a fighter fast-developing as a top tier attraction in combat sport after beating her overmatched opponent Ivana Habazin in every minute of every round in Atlantic City.
- Shields said before the fight that she was going to "f--- her up" and she did so with ease, punctuating her status as one of women's boxing's elite athletes.
- The 10-round victory saw Shields win two world championships in the super welterweight division, adding to world titles previously won in middleweight and super middleweight.
- She is now the fastest male or female boxer to win championships in three weight classes, having done so in just 10 bouts.
- This betters the achievements of Vasily Lomachenkop and Kosei Tanaka who won three titles in different weight classes after a dozen fights.
- After the Habazin win, Shields tweeted : Legendary Beyonce, "Who run the world Girls!"
- She then called herself the greatest woman of all time.
