Don’t know much about womens boxing but this seems like one of those fights that’s priced close but the boxer ends up prevailing? So shields?

On the other hand Marshall looks huge compared to Shields, will she just keep her on the end of the jab and be able to rough her up?

You don’t need to sit through them.

I think Marshall will walk through Sheilds's shots and stop her late .
Expect Shields to start really fast though and win the early rounds .

Hope Shields ends up staring at the lights. Most obnoxious person in boxing.

I keep flip-flopping around with this one. I've only really watched Marshall fight properly, on undercards etc, and haven't really caught too much of Shields, but initially after thinking Marshall would stop an overmatched Shields, I realised how insignificant an old amateur victory over somebody was.

The most current example I can think of is Usyk-Joyce, two of my favourite fighters, where people constantly reference Usyk's WSB victory over JJ like they already fought. It doesn't really mean all that much. In fact, that was the performance that made me rate Joyce and keep an eye on him from than onwards.

So then I flip to Shields wide points.

But now I've watched a bit of Shields, especially with common opponents... She's not exactly Mayweather is she? I don't see that much difference in boxing ability between the two, and Shields has been put down before against a much lesser fighter.

I tentatively lean towards a Marshall KO. At least a KD, I reckon. Curse these 2 minute rounds though.

Gonna go with Shields wide on points, hoping Marshall can send her to the abyss though, inshallah

It’s really hard to say isn’t it. I just watch these other fights with no real context of who they’re up against, what I’m looking for - it’s almost like relying on the eye test is the only option here because there just isn’t that much depth on the women’s side to judge anything by

I just have this niggling feeling that Shields is going to win comfortably on points. She isn’t hugely skilled as she thinks or is made out (or maybe she is by the standards of the women’s game?) but she strikes me as a ‘just enough’ type of fighter on the output level, like a latter- day Floyd or Ward. Just boring to sit through. Could she just get robbed?

Gahhhhh why do I think this is a betting opportunity that will inevitably go begging

It's why it's worth watching. It's a good match up.
