Three-division boxing champion Claressa Shields has enlisted the help of two former UFC champs as she prepares to transition into mixed martial arts.<\/p>\n

Shields, widely considered one of the greatest female boxers of all time, recently signed with the Professional Fighters League<\/a>, where she will begin her MMA journey in 2021.<\/p>\n

In anticipation of her MMA debut, Shields has commenced training at the famed JacksonWink MMA gym in Albuquerque, New Mexico, which is home to a host of high-level fighters.<\/p>\n

Among the fighters that call JacksonWink home are former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones and former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Holly Holm\u2014who is a former boxer herself.<\/p>\n

From the looks of it, Shields is already learning from both of these UFC stars.<\/p>\n
