Claressa Shields Claps Back After Baecation Criticism

Claressa Shields shared new baecation clips with Papoose on Instagram, and social media users quickly went in. The boxer responded the next day with a blunt clapback about the fit of her swimwear and the backlash that followed.
Claressa Shields didn’t even let the comments linger.
On Wednesday, May 27, the boxer posted to her Instagram Story with baecation clips featuring Papoose. The first clip showed her standing on a beach with Papoose as the sun set.
