“That Relationship Was Already Over”: Claressa Shields Clears Stance on Remy Ma, Papoose Affair After Phone Leak Debacle
Claressa Shields is furious. After all, you wouldn’t want your number leaked, would you? That too on the internet. She got caught in the middle of the storm between Papoose and Remy Ma, as the latter tried to expose their alleged relationship and ended up leaking the American boxer’s number. Boxing fans understand the frustration is mounting, and they had a glimpse of it when the two-time undisputed champion lashed out at Remy Ma.
The whole fiasco started when Remy Ma shared a screenshot of the conversation between Shields, 29, and Papoose, as she openly expressed her suspicions about the two. Shields, at 15-0, went back and forth with Remy Ma and even called her out for a boxing fight. The fees she asked for it? $1. In the conversation with Akin ‘Ak’ Reyes, she addressed the situation and pointed out how the couple had to sort out things between them. In addition, she admitted her beef with Remy Ma was because of the phone number leak incident.
‘GOWAT’ said, “They got to figure that out over there. So it’s not a thing of me having the issue with her. My only issue is why you leak my number. It ain’t no thing, ‘Oh, I want him, and he’s married to you.’ And it’s not, it’s not that. I’m a girl’s girl. So when it comes to like that, that’s not it.”
Shields continued and disclosed Papoose didn’t share his relationship status with Remy Ma and also excused herself from the blame game. She added, “He didn’t come out and said that they were in a relationship two years. So don’t look at me and say, ‘Oh, you just came and messed up this happy home,’ and stuff like that. Because that’s not what happened. That [relationship] was already over.”
The Flint native also explained how Papoose and Remy Ma had a private understanding of their own dynamics, and she respected that. But she also stated clearly how she wasn’t trying to play a disruptor’s role in their relationship.
Claressa Shields: coming clean on Papoose and Remy Ma
Shields said, “So now that’s their privacy, and they didn’t do that. But she’s out with this guy, parading around, whatever. So everybody knew that she was with this guy already. It was a private situation and a private understanding of what was going on. And I respected that.”
However, the two-time Olympic gold champion also detailed that she played no part in spoiling their relationship. She declared, “You understand and also know the facts. I know the facts of it, so it’s not like, ‘Oh, this is a happy home, and I’m just trying to steal somebody’s men’. That’s not it.” The fans are waiting for more details to emerge before making a call on the same, and it remains to be seen how these outside-the-ring controversies affect her inside-the-ring career.
