Returning to her hometown of Flint, Mich., WBC heavyweight champion Claressa Shields is back in action on Sunday, February 2nd following her heavyweight debut against Vanessa Lepage-Joanisse when she takes on Danielle Perkins. On the heels of her biographical film The Fire Inside, the two-time Olympic champion has a chance to make history once again as she vies to become the first boxer ever to win the undisputed title in three different weight divisions. A men's heavyweight co-feature has been announced that will see Lakeland, Florida's Brandon Moore (16-1, 10 KOs) against Skylar Lacy (8-0-2, 6 KOs). Moore is a new addition to Salita Promotion's roster of heavyweights. Standing at 6-foot-6, Moore made his professional debut in 2020 when he scored a first-round knockout over Nick Pinnock, setting the tone for his career thus far. Born into a family of professional athletes, Moore’s father was the captain of the Trinidad & Tobago national soccer team, while two of his younger brothers are currently professional soccer players. On the strength of two straight TKO victories, Moore most recently defeated Miguel Viloria in November of 2024 and looks to build upon his momentum on Sunday, February 2nd.
