Claressa Shields vs Danielle Perkins prediction

Claressa Shields is certainly the more decorated athlete heading into the contest and she is the favorite for a reason. However, Shields is making a jump to heavyweight.

That said, Danielle Perkins is naturally a heavyweight and could have the strength and weight advantage over Shields, making her chances interesting.

However, Shields is too experienced and crafty and should be able to manage a decision win against Perkins. A finish looks unlikely to take place.
