THERE WAS MORE than just Katie Taylor making headlines this week as women’s boxing made its olympic debut.
One of the other trailblazers was 17-year-old American middleweight Claressa Shields.
Yesterday, the gold medallist was in the NBC Olympics studio when host Willie Geist asked her why she chose to become a boxer. And her answer, from behind a sly grin, was as honest as it was epic…
“I just love fighting. And I love beating people up.”
Why was this young lady not more prominently featured this week? She had one of the better gold medal winning dances. She’s 17. And she’s awesome!
