In one of the videos, Claressa Sheilds said "Yeah I would beat Ms Pretty ass Laila Ali"

She constantly talked about how "That's why I can't stand light skin people". Constant colorism statements
She also wanted to fight a male Boxer, Keith Thurman who's also light skin. I think she might have PTSD from probably being made fun of as a kid by light skin people are something

I like both fighters, but Claressa needs to seek some therapy. It's never too late

Clarissa is a terrible person and she got money and chooses not to seek therapy. She is where she is not because she is a woman but because she isn't a likable person. nikkas go through struggle everyday nobody feels sorry for her lol. She literally never says a positive thing about anyone without adding herself and her accolades into the convo.

Shes responding while teasing a return to boxing...

:jbhmm:

So Laila isnt using this to raise her own brand awareness as well? Is that not using something for attention and clout?

Laila couldve ignored this and literally nothing wouldve changed in her life. When was the last time anyone mentioned Laila Ali before Shields did? Laila "defending" herself again Shields isnt necessary unless she also wants to use it to raise her profile.

Mess sells they both know that. Thats why Laila responded.


Leila knows that social media makes fun of Clarissa and is using it to her advantage. Ironically all the shyt talking that Clarissa gets clowned for makes me wonder if they know who Muhammad Ali was.

Nah... The only person I ever seen humble her was Bud.

I don't think she needs therapy. She sees herself more than a female fighter. She sees herself as a fighter and feels she should always be listed and ranked with the men. That's why she was so adamant with the Thurman thing.

Laila Ali went on the breakfast club and said there was nobody who she could come out of retirement for who would give her a challenge while Clarissa was fighting at the weight class Laila fought at. That is what started it, and as a competitor Clarissa felt some type of why by her saying that, especially since if we being honest Clarissa is more accomplished as a fighter than Laila is... by a considerable margin actually.

Say what you may want to about Sheilds, when she hangs the gloves up she won't have an Ann Wolfe people constantly bug her about for the rest of her life like Laila Ali does, she has fought anyone who matters that she could realistically make a fight with.

Lol Laila Ali aint been relevant in many many years. I think Clarissa trying to bait her into getting KOed. Ali has no intentions on fighting, which she shouldn't

She does need therapy. She was sexually molested as a child. She endured trauma that would lead many people to commit that, yet she still went on to become the greatest woman boxer of all time. I give Claressa a pass for like 99% of her missteps, just by knowing her back story. :mjcry:

There's not a ton of $ in women's boxing. If Laila returns and fights Claressa it should be the biggest woman's boxing match of all time. Let Netflix throw them both a bag and everybody wins. :blessed:

No.

What started it was Claressa's out of context response to what Ali said on TBC. Ali literally called her out and gave her props, that in itself should have outshined what she said "separately" about no one being a challenge for her to come out of retirement. How she gonna feel some type of way when she separately gave her props? If anything Clarissa should have ate the "nobody who she could come out of retirement for" comment after she gave her props by name. Clarissa even acknowledged that Ali gave her props but made light of it and turned the 'anthill' comment about no one worth coming out of retirement comment into a 'mountain.' No one would have even made that connection had Clarissa not pointed it out and made it a big deal. Clarissa took that, ran with it and made it into more then what it was in her response. Clarissa is the one who started it.

Claressa Shields is the GWOAT no doubt but she’s definitely a hot head and runs her mouth.

What happened to putting respect on those that came before you and paved the way for you to be where you’re at?

And Joe Frazier made fun of Ali's Parkinson's disease and said he was cursed by God. So I guess they are even :manny:
nikka that was after Ali was doing that fukk shyt.

If a nikka called me a gorilla and Uncle Tom for laughs from white people after I put money in his pocket I'd make fun of his Parkinson's too

God don't like ugly

SHIELDS HAD
4-5 PRO FIGHTS AT THAT POINT...

WHY WOULD LAILA
BE CONSIDERING HER AT THAT TIME?

IF LAILA IS BEHIND THE SCENES
GIVING THIS GIRL ADVICE
AND A PLATFORM FOR YEARS
THERES NO REASON ANY SANE PERSON
WOULD HAVE TAKEN IT THERE
:devil:

Bruh what Ali said would make any competitor feel some type of way, regardless if she gave her props. I'm not going to get into all the personal shyt after that, but her saying there would be no competition for her was a loaded ass statement and anyone who actually competes at anything regardless of the sport would feel some type of way.

Shields was already a unified champ 4 to 5 fights into her career... she was worthy of being mentioned.
