Boxing champ Claressa Shields is ready to step into the ring with a legend—and she’s putting $15 million on the table to prove it.
In a video shared by TMZ, Shields spoke directly to Laila Ali, daughter of Muhammad Ali and a retired boxing superstar, challenging her to accept the fight. “Laila, I’m here with my team. We got the $15 million. We got the venue. We got the dates. Now all we need is you,” she said.
Two massive venues—T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and AT&T Stadium in Dallas—are reportedly interested in hosting the fight, making it one of the biggest potential showdowns in women’s boxing history.
Ali has not responded yet, but fans are buzzing about the possibility of seeing two of the sport’s biggest names go head-to-head.
