Earlier in the month, tensions flared when Claressa Shields and Remy Ma exchanged heated words on Instagram. Shields even challenged the rapper to a fight, escalating the feud. The exchange caught the attention of celebrities, including 50 Cent, who humorously weighed in. “Whatever you do, don’t fight her,” he warned Shields on social media. “She’ll get the blick, champ!” While the rapper’s past became a talking point, Shields reiterated that her only concern was the blatant violation of her privacy.
The discussion turned to Claressa Shields’ now-viral $100,000 challenge, where she dared any woman to face her in the ring.
