I like her too. I just don’t like her matchmaking up to now.
Well her next fight should make up for it.

What impressive is how relaxed she is. She gets the stoppages just from fluid boxing - not loading up and blasting

Marshall is probably the boxer whose journey I'm most invested in right now. it's a story and some :box:

Vergil Ortiz too (hope he's ok, etc)

Middleweight and above is so shallow it’s untrue.

The womens weight classes are a mess. I’d say it’s reasonable to almost put 160 or 170 and above as a heavyweight division and reset the divisions below. From 115-135 or so there seems to be the majority of female boxers but either side of that you find divisions with sod all within them hence Tasha Jonas goes and manipulates herself a belt.

Genuine 50-50 for his next fight apparently against a quality operator. Nobody will be complaining here. We’ve just got to sit and wait for it to be announced, cancelled due to injury and his rematch with Pavel Sour to take centre stage in June.

I just don’t think Marshall is quick enough to land anything clean on Shields.

Shields is pillow fisted, she has nothing to keep Marshall off.
Marshall will land eventually, bit if it is enough to win a decision, only the English judges could tell us prior.
Pitty it isn't 12x3mins.

Marshall will miss a fair bit but will land,she's so fluid though and will soon work Shields out.

Thing is, what does she do afterwards?
Beat Shields and you have reached the end of the road, there are no big money fights afterwards unless they rematch.

Above 168 is heavyweight in women's.
