BAD MMA News — Sun, 09 Jun 2024 14:32:19 +0000

It looks like Savannah Marshall will have a shot to avenge a loss in the near future. Undisputed super middleweight women’s boxing champion Marshall (1-0) made her MMA debut Saturday in the main event of 2024 PFL Europe 2 and finished Mirela Vargas (1-3) in the first round at Utilita Arena in Newcastle, England. Afterward, Claressa Shields entered the cage for a friendly and playful faceoff – but one that also could be very serious for both fighters soon. In 2022, Shields and Marshall became the first female boxers to headline a major show in the U.K., and Shields took a unanimous decision to become the undisputed middleweight champ

Savannah Marshall starts in on new MMA journey with hope for eventual Claressa Shields rematch

BAD MMA News — Fri, 24 May 2024 14:39:35 +0000

Ahead of her pro MMA debut, Savannah Marshall no doubt is focused on who’s directly in front of her. But don’t think for a minute she’s not big-picturing her transition to MMA with an eye on the only woman to beat her in the boxing ring: Claressa Shields. Marshall (0-0) next month has her pro debut against Mirela Vargas (1-2) to headline PFL Europe 2 in Newcastle, England. And if she can get through that, well, she’ll find herself conveniently in the same PFL promotion as Shields (2-1), who outpointed her in a 2022 boxing match. But first, she has to just make a smooth crossover to a new sport. “Training has been hard – real hard,” Marshall told PFL Europe.
