Davis, the current WBA champion at 135lb, has established himself as one of the biggest stars of his generation. However, Shields believes that his contemporary shakur stevenson Will be able to defeat three-division champions.
Speaking to Million Dolla’s Worth of Game, Shields said: “I think Shakur [Stevenson] Gervonta beats Davis, and I thought about Devin [Haney],
“I think Devin can beat Tank, but once Tank catches him, it’s going to be a very long night, but I think the only guy that can beat him is Shakur.”
Shields has dominated her field, winning gold medals at consecutive Olympic Games in 2012 and 2016 before claiming undisputed status in three different weight classes as a professional, the first boxer to do so in the four-belt era.
The 30-year-old believes Davis will be victorious over Paul when the two meet on November 15, but insists the fight will be tough.
She explained: “Tank, listen – you better call Jake a s***, otherwise I’m really going to have a problem with you. No ifs and buts, you better do this. You shouldn’t have signed the contract.
“I think Tank will beat him, but it’s going to be a very ugly fight. Jake is going to put his weight on him, Jake is going to fight dirty. I don’t even know if Tank’s punches will be able to hurt Jake, he’s so big.”
