Claressa has also expressed that she wants to be considered the Greatest Woman of All Time in the entirety of the fighting game and always planned to transition to MMA. Since she has already made such an impact in the boxing world, she claims she wants to work towards being the first athlete, male or female, to ever hold a world title in both, Boxing and MMA, at the same time. Holly Holm is the only MMA World Champion (UFC is the best MMA Federation, so we are not taking into account all MMA organizations), who also held a world title in professional boxing, but she didn’t hold titles from both at the same time, which is what Claressa wants to achieve. Coincidentally, Holly Holm has helped Claressa in her training for her MMA debut.","Why is Claressa Shields transitioning to MMA?",{"_uid":692,"answer":693,"question":694,"component":670},"f3eafb3c-3f88-4b63-a2e2-865b5bf2f2de","To win this fight, Brittney Elkin needs to get the fight on the ground. Brittney is a high-level grappler. If Claressa gets on the ground with her, no matter how fast of a learner she is, she will most definitely get submitted or even knocked out. If she had a wrestling or judo background, there are ways to adjust for BJJ, but she is a boxer and nothing in her athletic career has prepared her for the ground game. Six months is just not enough to overcome a brown belt.","What does Brittney Elkin need to do to win this fight?",{"_uid":696,"answer":697,"question":698,"component":670},"c8ec9cb4-0525-4ab8-a84d-9acbc5916d9b","The main thing that Claressa has to do to win is to protect herself from takedowns. If she manages to keep the game standing up, she has a good chance of catching Brittney with a punch and knocking her out. She should practice exploding on the ground and getting up in the case that she ends up on the ground with her opponent. If Claressa knocks Brittney down, she shouldn't overreact and jump on top to finish her on the ground. If Brittney isn't badly hurt, they would just end up in a grappling situation, which would play to Brittney’s strengths. The chance that Claressa would win in that situation is close to 0%. Brittney isn't known for being a huge kicker, but she will probably throw an occasional low kick. Boxers are very susceptible to these kicks. Boxing stances tend to be wider to gain additional leverage for punches. In MMA, a wider stance is a vulnerability that all veteran fighters are aware of (your front foot is closer to the opponent and thus it’s easier to kick it). Claressa has to keep her front foot closer to her and practice checking the low kicks.","What does Claressa have to do to win?",{"_uid":700,"answer":701,"question":702,"component":670},"e3c45560-9135-46d6-9a91-9118fdda404f","In an ideal world, Claressa would know all aspects of mixed martial arts, but in the time constraints she has, it's not advisable to completely change her standing game. She has to leverage what she's best at, boxing, and as long as she protects herself well from takedowns and kicks, she has a good chance of winning. Shields has trained with some of the best MMA fighters and coaches in the world. Since December 2020, she has been training at the Jackson Wink MMA Academy, getting help from trainers such as Jon Jones and Holly Holm. One thing that seems troubling is that there is almost no evidence of her doing serious MMA sparring. Hopefully, she will get a bit of experience: see what it feels like to be hit with a 4 oz glove, practice her takedown defense, and deal with the consequences when unsuccessful and on the ground. Whether this fight is competitive or not, solely depends on the takedown defense of Shields.

The Motivation\n\nThe music. The instructors. The energy. Those elements are contagious. Even though the instructors can’t see me, I know Flo, Tommy, Hitman, etc. would be disappointed if I just stopped and quit. I honestly have kept going because of an instructor talking to me through my TV – sounds stupid saying it out loud, but you will know what I mean if you take a few classes.\n\n2. The Workouts.\n\nI actually got my heavy bag a few weeks before I decided to try Fightcamp. I figured, boxing is a great idea and I’ve done it before, so do I really need someone to guide me through workouts when I know what to do?\n\nWhen I was on my own, I’d do some light jump rope, situps or planks, then I’d hit the bag for a few rounds and call it a day. It felt pretty good. But then, I did some Fightcamp workouts. I was dripping sweat and exhausted.\n\nBeing a somewhat experienced boxer and generally in pretty good shape, I tried jumping straight to a 45-min intermediate workout, but quickly scaled back to work my way back up to those. The workouts are tough and the mix of boxing stuff and ground stuff is what makes it so good. On my own, I tend to just hit the bag over and over again and end up doing way less core/legs. I needed someone to tell me to do that or I’d slack.\n\n3. The Tracking.\n\nDid I mention I’m ultra competitive? Being able to hit a punch target or beat my last score is motivating. Nowadays, it almost feels like if I don’t track my workout, then it doesn’t count. I’m excited to see even more features on historic workouts and tracking improvement – and I am sure the FightCamp team is working on some great stuff.\n\n4. The Convenience\n\nI work from home and share a car with my wife, so it is nice and easy to be able to turn on a workout anytime. I can throw on a 15 or 30-minute workout during my lunch hour.

Rijker started training in kickboxing at 15 years old, knocking out the American Kickboxing Champion Lily Rodriguez and continuing to gain a 36-0 record with four world titles.\n\nRijker’s boxing career was equally impressive with 17 wins and 14 KOs, earning her the Women’s International Boxing Federation (WIDF) Welterweight title and legendary status.\n\nKnown as the “Most Dangerous Woman in the World” and the “Dutch Destroyer,” Rijker took a short hiatus from the ring to pursue several acting roles. These included an appearance in the 2004 Oscar-winning film Million Dollar Baby and an award-winning documentary in 2000 about her life called Shadow Boxers.\n\nOn top of Rijker’s extraordinary career in the ring, she speaks four languages fluently and hosts lectures and seminars about reaching one’s full potential, with a focus on staying in peak physical condition.\n\nLucia Rijker was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2020.","Who is Lucia Rijker?",{"_uid":1402,"answer":1403,"question":1404,"component":670},"1ef342ad-2c5c-4da3-b6ce-eea3f237a5fe","Christy Martin began her fighting career winning three consecutive titles in ‘Toughwoman’ contests. She launched her professional boxing career with a six-round draw against Angela Buchanan in 1989, winning the rematch one month later with a KO in round two. Christy went on to win 19 consecutive matches.\n\nChristy, nicknamed the “Coal Miners Daughter,” started training with boxing coach and husband James Martin in 1991. After the couple moved to Florida, Christy became the first woman to sign with Don King, and debuted in Las Vegas, NV, in 1994. Two years later she rose to fame as the lightweight women’s champion of the world, earning her a place on the Sports Illustrated cover and an immediate pay increase from $15,000 to $150,000 per fight.\n\nChristy’s stardom continued until her first KO loss to Laila Ali in 2003, followed by a string of more losses and festering personal turmoil that would soon come to a head.\n\n“Boxing was the best therapy I could find,” Salters told Sports Illustrated in 2016. “That’s where I felt the safest.”\n\nIn 2010, Christy was stabbed repeatedly and shot by her husband James Martin after years of abuse. The gunshot missed her heart by only 4 inches. Against all odds, Christy miraculously survived. James was convicted of attempted 2nd-degree murder and sentenced to 25 years in prison.\n\nAfter everything she had gone through, Christy wasn’t ready to give up boxing yet, and 193 days after almost losing her life she re-entered the ring only to have her trainer stop the fight when it was clear her hand was broken. She subsequently suffered a stroke, officially ending her career in 2012. She had to fight another long road to recovery, eventually taking up work as a substitute teacher and aiding military veterans in finding employment.\n\nChristy spoke on Capitol Hill in support of the Protecting Domestic Violence and Stalking Victims Act in 2013. “If that’s why I had to go through what I did, to help save other people,” she says, “that’s O.K. with me. I made it, and so many people do not.”\n\nChristy was the first female boxer to be inducted into the Nevada Boxing Hall of Fame in 2016, and she was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2020.","Who is Christy Martin (Christy Salters)?",{"_uid":1406,"answer":1407,"question":1408,"component":670},"7d536b1c-7d61-47fb-8161-14126f965610","Inspired by watching a Christy Martin televised match, Laila Ali began boxing at age 18 despite initial resistance from her famous father, Muhammad Ali. Her father was concerned for his daughter’s safety, but she knocked out her opponent April Fowler in round one of her first match in 1999. She went on to seal her superstar status with 9 wins in a row.\n\nIn 2003, Ali got the chance to fight her inspiration Christy Martin and won with a KO in the 4th round. Laila Ali has held the WBC, WIBA, IWBF, and IBA female super middleweight titles, as well as the IWBF light heavyweight title. She retired from the ring in 2007 and is considered by many to be the greatest female boxer of all time.\n\nLaila Ali became an accomplished television personality and co-authored an autobiography Reach!: Finding Strength, Spirit, and Personal Power.
