Clarissa Shields - Kay Scott: Betting Tip (cf 1.39) and bets on the fight

Current form

Clarissa Shields is one of the most decorated athletes in modern boxing. The Flint, Michigan native last entered the ring in December, when she regained the upper hand in her second bout with Franchon Crews-Desurnes and retained her heavyweight championship belts. The first meeting of the rivals was held back in 2016, and then Shields confidently won on points. Before that, in July 2025, the American defeated Lani Daniels by unanimous decision. Shields' professional record looks flawless — 18 wins in 18 fights, three of them ahead of schedule. Thus, the percentage of wins by knockout is 16.7%. She has played 153 rounds in her professional career.

But the main numbers here are not even those. Shields is a two—time Olympic champion who won gold at the 2012 and 2016 Games. As an amateur, she also became a world champion and won the Pan American Games. In professional boxing, the American managed to become the absolute world champion in several weight categories at once.

In 2019, Shields collected all the major middleweight belts after defeating Kristina Hammer. In 2021, she repeated her achievement in the welterweight division, defeating Marie-Eves Dicker. In 2024, the American stopped Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse and added new titles to her collection, and in February 2025, she defeated Danielle Perkins by unanimous decision, knocking her opponent down in the tenth round.

Shields is 175 cm tall and has a 172 cm arm span. Power boxing has never been her main weapon: only three of her 18 wins ended in a knockout. But her speed, technique, sense of distance, and ability to work in series make her an extremely uncomfortable opponent.

Current form

Kay Scott represents Sydney and approaches this fight with much less professional experience. In December, the Australian defeated Olivia Curry by majority vote and won the vacant WBC and WBA titles. Three months before, the rivals had already met and then they broke up in a draw after ten rounds. The Australian has five wins, one loss and one draw in the professional ring, and not a single victory by knockout. She had 56 rounds in seven fights. The Australian started her professional career only in 2023, but she has a very solid amateur experience.

Scott competed at the 2014 Commonwealth Games, the 2016 World Championships, where she won silver in the light heavyweight division, and also took bronze at the 2018 Commonwealth Games. She received two more silver medals at the 2022 Commonwealth Games and the 2023 World Championships in the weight class up to 51 kg.

In terms of anthropometry, the Australian is slightly superior to Shields. Her height is 178 cm, and her arm span is 182 cm. This gives Scott an advantage of about 3 cm in height and 10 cm in arm span.

The only defeat in her professional career, the Australian suffered from compatriot Desley Robinson in December 2024. However, Scott had previously defeated Robinson by a majority of the judges. Kay doesn't have much of a power punch, but she knows how to hold a punch and isn't used to deviating from her chosen plan.
