Daniels was tough, even going head-to-head on the inside-fighting in the middle rounds. But even though Daniels pressed forward, Shields was just quicker to react, faster to counterpunch and just quicker to engage. That being said, Daniels was able to take the "GWOAT's" best shots.

Shields at heavyweight is a more dangerous boxer. While at middleweight, she was definitely utilizing her footwork and ring IQ a lot more. But at this weight class, she combines her world class skill with a much more aggressive output, where it looks like every punch it meant to do damage. When it comes to the bigger weight classes, it's hard to see who could give Shields a real challenge.
Saturday night, the "GWOAT" proved why she runs women's boxing.
