• The promoter confirmed serious intentions regarding the fight with Layla Ali.
• Shields is exploring other options for future fights.

Claressa Shields won the victory in the bout for the title of absolute champion of women's heavyweight against Lani Daniels on Saturday. After the fight, Shields drew attention to the possibility of a fight with Layla Ali, the daughter of legendary boxer Muhammad Ali.

Shields clearly expressed her intentions during the press conference, stating that she wants to have a fight with Ali. Promoter Shields, Dmitriy Salita, confirmed that they are seriously considering this possibility. "This fight will be a monumental moment in the history of sports: the daughter of a legend against the best," he noted.

Layla Ali, who has not stepped into the ring since 2007, has a record of 24-0 (21). Shields is also exploring other options, including a fight with Ali that may not take place, as well as the possibility of a meeting with Savannah Marshall, who handed her the only defeat.

In addition, Shields has the opportunity to return to super middleweight, where the competition is greater. After completing the contract with the promoter, Shields may sign with a new organization, such as Matchroom or MVP Promotions.
