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).
