Boxing enthusiasts can expect an electrifying clash as Claressa Shields, the self-styled “G.W.O.A.T.” (Greatest Woman of All Time), defends her undisputed women’s heavyweight world titles against New Zealand’s Lani Daniels at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan on Saturday, July 26.
The fight showcases Shields’ perfect record (16-0, 3 KOs) against Daniels’ resilience (11-2-2, 1 KO), with the IBF, WBA, WBC, and WBO heavyweight titles at stake. Don’t miss the chance to stream this historic bout live online on DAZN.
Claressa Shields, a two-time Olympic gold medalist and the only boxer to achieve undisputed champion status in three weight classes, is a dominant force in women’s boxing. Her bold prediction to make Daniels “throw in the towel” adds intensity to this matchup.
Lani Daniels, known as “The Smiling Assassin,” is a former IBF heavyweight champion and current IBF light heavyweight titleholder who’s riding a seven-fight win streak. At 37, Daniels aims to pull off a monumental upset and reclaim heavyweight gold on Shields’ home turf.
The fight also carries emotional weight. Shields is coming off a cleared controversy involving a mistaken positive marijuana test after her February 2025 win over Danielle Perkins, and she’s determined to prove her dominance. Daniels, a mental health advocate who started boxing at 24, brings an inspiring story of resilience to the ring.
