Claressa Shields Claps Back At Those Calling Papoose Her “First Boyfriend” While Doubling Down On Laila Ali Comments
On Tuesday, July 15, Shields appeared to be on X, formerly known as Twitter, checking in on mentions of her name. Shortly before noon, Shields replied to a user who said she’ll likely knock Ali out “unless they pull a Jake Paul and Mike Tyson and play in our faces…” From there, the user added that she doesn’t think Shields knows how to “play fight,” so their matchup should end with Shields “humb[ling]” Ali.
Furthermore, Shields peeped the tweet and responded that she doesn’t play fight with anybody, in part. Then, a few minutes later, she shared more thoughts about Ali.
“…I been telling her if she want to prove she so much better skilled than me and got so much power… come do it. Don’t start copping pleas now!” she wrote, in part.
However, Shields’ words didn’t end there. At that point, she then noted that her “passion… bother[s] miserable mfs!” and addressed those calling Pap her “first boyfriend.”
“I’m passionate about my relationship… y’all yell ‘it’s giving first boyfriend’ I’m passionate about boxing, my actual career and y’all yell ‘omg she so loud! She so angry’ my passion bothers y’all!” she added.
Before stepping away from her keyboard, Shields then shared a final response to a user comparing Tyson v. Paul to her and Ali potentially stepping in the ring.
