Claressa Shields is making it clear that she will forever stand by her man, Papoose, no matter what the critics have to say.

The undefeated boxing champion addressed the ongoing chatter head-on during a recent livestream, and she did not tiptoe around her feelings. Shields made it clear that speaking proudly about Papoose is not a phase, not a response to the internet, and definitely not something she plans to stop doing to make anyone else comfortable.
The moment quickly circulated online, with fans and commentators weighing in on her unapologetic tone.
I’m never gon’ stop talkin’ about my man…ain’t nobody gon’ ever make me stop talking about my man…Whenever I feel like saying Papoose name, I’m gonna say his name.”
Beyond the declaration, Shields also shut down speculation about the state of their relationship. She insisted that Papoose is happy, secure, and deeply in love. The couple has been the subject of scrutiny since Pap’s estranged wife, Remy Ma, exposed their relationship in late 2024. Since then, Remy and the boxer have argued online, hurling accusations at one another. Shields even challenged her to a match, though nothing ever came of this proposition.
