Claressa Shields took a swipe at Max Kellerman for his claims on Terence Crawford and Manny Pacquiao. Crawford recently became a five-weight world champion with his win against Canelo Alvarez on September 13.<\/p>\n
Following world title wins at 135 lbs, 140 lbs, 147 lbs, and 154 lbs, ‘Bud’ now holds the undisputed super middleweight title and is the first male boxer ever to win the undisputed title in three different weight classes. Pacquiao, meanwhile, won world titles in eight different weight divisions.<\/p>\n
Max Kellerman recently claimed that Pacquiao and Crawford are the only legitimate four division champions in boxing history. That’s a bold take, considering Floyd Mayweather, Canelo, and more have won world titles in four different weight divisions before. <\/p>\n
And following his statement, Claressa Shields took to social media to take a shot at Kellerman.<\/p>\n

Kellerman said on the Inside the Ring show, “No one has ever been a four-division champion in boxing, not a real one. Pacquiao won eight, Oscar De La Hoya won 11, this won 15, no. I am talking about the Ring Magazine champion.”<\/p>\n
“Forever, the record was three, Henry Armstrong, Pacquiao. Floyd gets credit for beating Canelo, but that wasn’t at junior middleweight. I don’t count that. Terence Crawford just joined Manny Pacquiao as the only legit four-division champion in boxing.”<\/p>\n
Shields fired back, writing on X:<\/p>\n
