if you read the title, yep, you got that right, a female boxer called out Kieth Thurman for a fight.
several days ago I saw articles going around talking about Claressa Shields calling out Keith Thurman and saying that she'll fight him and thinks that she can outbox him. I thought this would just die down because Kieth Thurman wouldn't respond to it but then earlier I saw an article where Keith Thurman basically accepts her offer to fight for a charity event and also would give her several advantages more protective gear just to make it safer.
anyway, I've seen some highlights of Claressa Shields's fight and I think she is a good boxer(her belts shoes that) but I don't think she can handle Men's Boxing, especially with someone like Kieth Thurman. not sure if this fight will ever go through but I am extremely curious to see how she'll show off her skills if she ever actually fights Kieth Thurman for a charity event.
if you are curious, after Kieth Thurman accepted her offer, she responded by showing a
video of her sparring with men, and I gotta say, it wasn't good.
