In what was music to the ears of boxing fans worldwide, ESPN's Mike Coppinger in June reported that the welterweight pair are finally closing in on a match-up, claiming the bout will take place in Las Vegas in November.Ĭrawford had earlier in the year rid himself of a prevalent hurdle as he left Top Rank, leaving him free to fight on Spence Jr's PBC, who are notoriously tricky customers when it comes to doing business with rival promoters. Both throwing to their credit.Spence Jr holds the WBC, WBA and IBF titles having beaten Yordenis Ugas earlier in the year Shields waiting in the corner, looking for corners, then comes forward at the clapper. Dicaire trying to rush, Shields tying her up and throwing where she can. Good lead right from Shields, and another. Round 10: Shields trying to work off a jab, Dicaire is going for it, she knows she needs her first-ever knockout. I think that was Dicaire’s best round and she barely nicks it for me. Shields tries to seal it late, Dicaire got a couple shots in and goes back to her corner with her arm up. It ain’t there, and she also has no power, so it ain’t coming. Round 9: Dicaire is, to her credit, trying to lunge in with some lead lefts, trying to find something to turn the tide. Shields pretty quiet for a few moments, then starts throwing again to make sure she’s sealing the round. Has never come close to getting a jab going, and she doesn’t have a bad one, but Shields isn’t letting her use it at all.

Dicaire getting walked down this round, she has no choice but to move backwards, and she’s just constantly bouncing, bouncing, and not throwing punches. She’s been patiently aggressive, if you will. Shields misses a loaded up right late in the round, a bit more jostling on the inside. Dicaire’s best work has arguably been in smothering some of Shields’ work. Dicaire can sometimes get inside, but then she can’t do anything, and Shields keeps slipping under and landing counter shots with it, too. Shields with a decent shot, Dicaire wrestles her against the ropes. Round 7: Dicaire has never settled down here, never found a rhythm. She’s tagging Dicaire with counter lefts, which if she’s going to really close this show, that might be the punch here. Round 6: Shields continues to more or less dominate. Dicaire does land the odd shot, but there’s not enough. Shields is focused and solid work, trying to bait Dicaire. Round 5: Shields just so much more crisp, so much better all around. Check hook from Shields then she tries to load up with a right before the bell. Dicaire is really, really trying to find openings. Dicaire with a good shot, but Shields takes it well. Round 4: Shields again winging both hands. And yet again, the two-minute rounds do these fights no favors. 2 154-pounder - but she’s just out of her depth so far. Dicaire is not a bad fighter - again, pretty clearly the legit No. Shields’ hand speed and timing just too much, even throwing wide shots. She really, badly wants to Ann Wolfe spark someone. Was awkward, Shields throwing a lot of wide rights. Right hands from Shields, a trio of them. Round 3: Shields coming forward again, whacking Dicaire around throwing both hands. Her footwork is a lot better than Dicaire’s. Shields wants to counter if she can, but leading if she must. Shields really looks like she’s hunting a bit here, she’s standing her ground and daring Dicaire to come in, and when Dicaire doesn’t, she eventually throws first. Left to the body from the southpaw Dicaire, counter right from Shields backs her off. Round 2: Right hand from Shields, a wide, winging shot, but it got there, Dicaire didn’t react in time. Dicaire has a ton of jittery energy, Shields is very relaxed. Round 1: Shields with the first good shot, then the next two good shots, but Dicaire gets a counter in, they both throw with some intent for a moment.
