Savannah Marshall’s boxing record
Savannah Marshall is considered to be one of the best women fighters of this generation. She made her pro boxing debut at the age of 26 in 2017.
Since then, she has gone on to attain a pro boxing record of 13-1. Her only loss came at the hands of Claressa Shields who is considered to be the greatest women’s boxer of all time.
In the process, Savannah Marshall has also won undisputed titles in two weight classes, the super middleweight and the middleweight division. That said, it will be interesting to see if she returns to boxing in the future or if she sticks to MMA from now.
Regardless of what she does, it is worth noting that she has nothing left to prove in the world of combat sports.
