She pushed back on claims circulating online, specifically denying accusations that she mocked anyone\u2019s medical condition, and as an alternative pointed to Paul\u2019s past commentary about her MMA loss while she was coping with a concussion and up to date medical treatment.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"845\" data-end=\"1231\">Shields also referenced her 2021 MMA fight, saying <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Claressashields\/status\/2057938934743830776\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">she competed shortly after<\/a> having stitches removed and felt unfairly criticized for the consequence. She also questioned MVP\u2019s branding around women\u2019s boxing, criticized how the organization promotes and labels fighters, and threw shots at Jake Paul\u2019s boxing record and public persona.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"845\" data-end=\"1231\">\u201cWhy people lying on me saying I made fun of somebody who had a brain bleed, let\u2019s speak about [Jake Paul] celebrating me losing a split decision mma fight while I had a concussion fighting! literally had 8 stitches taken out of my head 2 weeks before this fight!
