Shields is clearly a great talent and she's achieved something exceptional - however I haven't regarded any of her opponents, despite being alphabet champs, as competitive - including Hammer.
The fact that most of her opponents are having to go to the US for the first time to face her imo makes the fights even less competitive.
IMO Savannah Marshall needs to have 4 or 5 more pro fights in order to get to the point where she'll be Shields' first really competitive opponent - then Marshall should hold Shields to her offer of fighting in the UK.
