Chantelle Cameron targets Claressa Shields in proposed 160-pound bout

Unified super welterweight champion Chantelle Cameron has expressed interest in moving up in weight to challenge Claressa Shields. Cameron, who recently secured a unanimous decision win over Mikaela Mayer, acknowledged that fighting at the 160-pound middleweight limit would put her at a physical disadvantage against the undisputed heavyweight and unified middleweight champion. Shields has maintained that she will not compete below 160 pounds for potential matchups. Although the two boxers have discussed the possibility of a fight, no contract has been signed. Cameron stated she is willing to travel to the United States to face the top-ranked pound-for-pound fighter in a bout she considers a major event for the sport. The negotiations remain in the early stages as both parties weigh their options.
