Arguably the best
pound-for-pound female boxer on
the planet, American Claressa
Shields, won the World Boxing
Federation (WBF) World
Middleweight title on February
5.
That triumph also earns her
recognition as the WBF Boxer of
the Month for February 2022!
“T-Rex”
Shields dethroned undefeated
reigning champion Ema Kozin
(21-0-1) from Slovenia, winning
a landslide unanimous decision
(100-90 x 3) in Cardiff, Wales.
The 26-year-old two-time Olympic
gold medallist from Flint,
Michigan also defended her IBF,
WBC and WBA world titles in the
process, and improved her
professional record to 12-0 (2).
