Claressa Shields bout in Flint off after fight at weigh-in

FLINT, Mich. (AP) — Claressa Shields’ long-awaited fight in her hometown was called off after her opponent’s trainer was injured in an altercation before the weigh-in.
Shields was supposed to fight Ivana Habazin of Croatia on Saturday night, but the bout was called off after Habazin’s trainer James Ali Bashir was struck and was hospitalized on Friday. Salita Promotions said the remainder of the event would go on as scheduled, and Showtime would televise a two-fight card.
