Claressa Shields

Her notability stems from an unprecedented championship record. Shields has held 18 major world titles and currently holds the record for becoming a two, three, four, and five-division world champion in the fewest professional fights. As of 2025, she is widely regarded as the best active female boxer, pound for pound, by major sports outlets, and she holds the undisputed female heavyweight title.

Recently, Shields has been in the news for both her professional and personal activities. This includes the announcement of a new multi-fight deal and a scheduled bout against Che Kenneally for early 2026. Her public profile has also been elevated through high-profile gym sessions with other athletes and personal celebrations, keeping her consistently in the sports and entertainment headlines.
