A truly bizarre incident from a famous, top p4p boxer Sergey Kovalev who has crushed some of the best men in recent years (Hopkins, Pascal, Sillakh, Cleverly, Campillo), and an almost unknown female boxer who won medals in Olympic boxing and really in the big picture of things is a complete nobody. I mean, the truth is she probably wouldn't even make Sergey's undercard, I doubt Claressa Shields could even headline "Friday Night Fights" on ESPN and quite frankly the US men's team hasn't won a gold medal since 2004, which is absolute crap to be honest. Russia has fared considerably better than the US when you look at Olympic Boxing over the last 10, 20, or even 30 years. The simple fact is USA is not very good at boxing, and winning a medal in women's boxing just shows how bad the competitive level is on the women's side of things (because the US men's team always draws a blank, because men from other countries are better and more widely competing).
Here are some videos of the ordeal, quite shocking to say the least that such an unproven, unknown female boxer would have such an arrogance; But I'm happy Kovalev's making fun of her payment put Shields in her rightful place.

In the above video Shields claims she has "beaten up men" and "beaten up men bigger than Kovalev", she also puts up her fist criminally threatening Kovalev at the 1:50 mark.

In this video she claims that Kovalev was "sexist", but in reality it was her who threatened him, and he would have been within his rights to knock her out.
