    That was intense.

    Claressa Shields and Savannah Marshall just had a very heated exchange right in front of us.

    What a fight that could be.

    That was as one sided as world title fights get.

    Claressa Shields duly adds the WBF middleweight crown to her WBA, WBC, IBF and Ring magazine titles.

    A bout against WBO champion Savannah Marshall awaits, provided the Briton comes through a mandatory defence in March.

    Credit to Ema Kozin who ends 20 gruelling minutes still standing.

    An absolute clinic from Claressa Shields though. Complete and utter domination.

    Total and utter control.

    Very tough to argue with Mr Rafael. This is a clinic from Shields, she has controlled every moment of this fight.

    We are heading for the 10th and final round. Credit to Ema Kozin for making it this far.

    A slightly more sedate round, but Claressa Shields can go into cruise control now if she chooses, she's miles ahead.

    Claressa Shields promised the Welsh crowd she would put on a display for them and she has delivered. Seven rounds of domination, Kozin will do very well to stay standing until the final bell.

    Claressa Shields just keeps matching forward and Ema Kozin has no answers to the punishment.

    This is another very one-sided contest so far.

    Claressa Shields' trainer John David Jackson is no stranger to this arena, he was here when his fighter Sergey Kovalev broke Welsh hearts by taking Nathan Cleverly's world title.

    I think he might be smiling at the end of this one too. Shields is in control.

    Claressa Shields lands with some stinging body shots.

    In terms of 'hit and don't get hit' that was majestic.
