The mourning in England and the United Kingdom in general for the death of Queen Elizabeth II has prevented public events from being held in the coming days, so the fight between Claressa Shields and Savannah Marshall has been postponed.
The British Boxing Board of Control issued a statement in which it stressed that there will be no events of any kind for the next few days, while the organization has estimated that it will take place on October 15.
Both were going to go up to the ring of the O2 Arena, in London, this Saturday to put the WBA middleweight championship and the WBC, IBF and WBO belts at stake, but the unfortunate loss of the monarch forces mourning.
Both women will rearrange their training sessions to find the best plan for the next month and be 100% ready for the big bantamweight fight.
