Clerisa Shields are pursuing a fight against Leila Ali, daughter of Muhammad Ali, after successfully retaining her non -controversial heavyweight championship.
The American star, a multi -weight world champion, defeated Lani Daniels by a unanimous decision in front of 15,366 fans in Little Caesar Arena, Detrust.
The Shields can now turn their attention to a showdown with 47 -year -old Leila Ali, which has not been boxing since 2007, but has won the world award in his unbeaten career.
Dmitry Sleta, a shield promoting shield, told Sky Sports: “Clairisa continues to break the barriers to the shields and raise the boxing game with each of her moves.
“After its historical victory in the detriment, we are focused on keeping it dynamic and linked to its mission.
“There will be a memorable moment in the history of a match -up game with Laila Ali: the daughter of the goat vs Gait, the two -generation icons whose stories exceed boxing. This is a fight that we are seriously pursuing.”
The Shields defeated Swanna Marshall, taking revenge on its only boxing defeat, while a amateur, O2, became an unprecedented champion of the Middle Weight in front of the audience.
But Slata believes that the two -time Olympic gold medalists can still reach new heights in their trail billing career.
He told Sky Sports, “At the same time, the legacy of Clerisa is still being written.” “They are a sign of inspiration and flexibility, and we are working on occasions that advance new limits.
“What he has done is already historic, but what is ahead can be more than that.”
