Shields said, “I an’t wait to get in the ring on June 22nd, I love the fight against Hanna Gabriels-champion Versus champion, exactly the kind of fight that I want overtime to take women’s boxing to new heights. I’ve said one of my goals is to win world championships in three weight divisions. I’m proud to be. Super Middleweight champion and on June 22 I will add the middleweight championship to my accomplishments.”
