Boxing champion Claressa Shields — also known as the GWOAT — is ready to fight any woman and puts $100,000 on the line.
The GWOAT had social media in a frenzy on December 7 after issuing a $100,000 open challenge to any woman who thinks they can beat the boxing superstar. The undisputed champion posted a collection of training photos and shots of her five belts, then used the caption to unveil an offer aimed at any woman who believes she can test her in the ring.
“LIKE I SAID I GOT $100K FOR ANY GIRL FROM ANY HOOD, ANY COUNTRY!” she wrote, stressing that the challenge is open to all backgrounds and levels.
But Shields also made it clear she would not step into the ring without a benefit of her own. “BUT THIS IS THE GAG, WHAT DO I GET OUT OF GIVING Y’ALL AN OPPORTUNITY 0️⃣,” she continued. “SO YES ITS GONNA HAVE TO BE SOME INCENTIVE FOR The GWOAT!”
Shields then shifted her tone from fighter to producer. She said the only way she could justify “wasting my precious time proving what I already know” would be through a full reality series built around the challenge.

“ONLY WAY I CAN ACCEPT… IS A REALITY TV SHOW, LIVE AUDITIONS & COMPETITIVE COMPETITIONS!” she wrote.
She tagged WWE, Netflix, Zeus Network, and YouTube while asking, “WHERE WILL THE HOME BE FOR THIS REALITY TV SHOW?” hinting that she is actively seeking a partner to bring the concept to life.
Her pitch follows the GWOAT campaigning for a superfight with legendary boxer Laila Ali. The hashtags — #Claressashields, #GWOAT, #FIGHTTHEGWOAT100K — reinforced a sense of branding that matches her larger-than-life ambition.
Shields added fuel to the conversation in the comments when she wrote, “It’s a few of y’all I actually believe got some real heart and self-belief, I’m making a list of y’all names.”
The comment signaled that she is taking the responses seriously and may already be evaluating potential contenders. Shields is a two-time Olympic gold medalist and undefeated, with belts in multiple divisions.
With one post, Shields cast herself as champion, gatekeeper, and executive producer, transforming a challenge into a possible global spectacle and placing the burden on hopefuls to prove they belong in the ring with the self-proclaimed Greatest Woman of All Time.
