The best female boxer in the world regardless of weight category Claressa Shields (14-0, 2 KOs) will have another fight under MMA rules. On February 24, Shields will face Kelsey DeSantis at the Professional Fighters League event in Saudi Arabia.

Shields signed a new contract with PFL last summer. As part of the implementation of this agreement, the American will have two fights in the cage this year. Two years ago, the world champion in three weight categories had already fought two fights in the PFL, winning and losing.

The last T-Rex boxing match took place in June. Last year, Shields had just one boxing fight. In June, the 28-year-old athlete won on points against Marisela Cornejo.
