Claressa Shields will not face Savannah Marshall or Natasha Jonas in her next fight | Boxing News
Claressa Shields will not face Savannah Marshall or Natasha Jonas in her next fight, promoter Ben Shalom confirmed.
Shields became undisputed middleweight champion after she won her spectacular fight with Savannah Marshall in October of last year.
“We offered her a rematch in the UK, she doesn’t want to fight in the UK which is fair enough,” promoter Ben Shalom told Sky Sports.
Shields has also been linked with a move down to super-welterweight to return to Britain to box unified 154lb champion Natasha Jonas. But that will not be Shields’ next fight.
“I think that they’re looking at an option in the US, hopefully on Sky. It won’t be Jonas and it won’t be Marshall,” Shalom said.
