Claressa Shields (14-0, 2 KOs) has signed a new contract with the Federation of Professional Fighters League, and next year the American will have more fights in MMA.

Two years ago, the world champion in three weight categories had two fights in the LPB, winning one and losing one. The last boxing match of T-Rex took place in June.

“I stand my ground. I want to be the first athlete to become world champion in boxing and MMA at the same time. I have grown a lot since I debuted in cage,” Shields said.
