Claressa Shields claims that he shed Cris Cyborg into tears during a sparring session between the two.
Boxing’s indisputable Gwart and the female mixed martial arts goat went to the toes behind a closed door in 2018. Some of the footage from the sparring session was released online, but according to Shield, the video was carefully edited, with Cyborgs being more than “opposed to T-rex.”
As Shield says, she jumped off the plane, jumped into the ring, and was absolutely embarrassed by the Multi-Time MMA World Champion. Because most of the Brazilians were shedding tears.
“I beat her in sparring, do you know that? I got the pier from the plane,” Shields said in an in-studio interview with Ariel Helwani. “I flew from Michigan and just fought, so I flew to LA and sparred against Chris Cyborg.
“We were supposed to go to six rounds. I only kicked her ass four times and she was about to cry, so I didn’t do the last two. That’s a real deal. She was jealous, she was jealous, then she was plotting.
Claressa Shield accuss Cyborg of fighting “Bams” throughout her career
Aside from his defeat in his professional MMA debut and his defeat to Amanda Nunes 13 years later, Chris Cyborg has won perfect gold in almost every major martial arts organization on Earth, including Invicta FC, Strike Force, UFC, Bellator and PFL.
Recently, Cyborg has been testing his boxing skills. So far, she is a perfect 4-0 and does not include exhibition matches. All of these victories come from knockouts. In fact, Cyborg already has more KOs in his boxing career than his undefeated (16-0) shield.
“She’s fighting Bums in MMA and screaming, ‘Oh, more knockouts than Claressa!” But she can’t enter the ring with the world champions and can’t beat them,” Shields continued. “She’s a punk, that’s her. After talking about trash online, then you look at it face to face and you don’t know what to say, they’re all punk! They switch. I’m about that behaviour.
With the Cyborg locked up at the end of her 20-year career, can you see her steps in the ring along with the Claressa Shield before hanging her gloves forever?
