Claressa Shields hopped online to address 50 Cent after he shared a series of posts throwing shade her and her partner, Papoose.
The two-time Olympic boxing champion responded after 50 Cent posted an edited Instagram video implying he brushed off Shields during a past appearance.
He captioned the clip, “I only played little league football but I know how to run. LOL Good morning everybody!”
While Papoose has revealed that he plans to further address 50 Cent expeditiously, his athlete girlfriend didn’t hold back.
Shields quickly pushed back by posting the full, unedited footage of the moment, which showed 50 Cent warmly introducing her onstage.

“@50cent come on now you love the GWOAT!” she wrote on her Instagram Story. “You paid for my flight, hotel and all to be in Shreveport to help you raise money for your nonprofit! Showed mad love!”
She later doubled down in a separate post, adding, “You hooked me up with a flight to Shreveport and a hotel room. You even invited me to help out with your nonprofit for the kids. I’m still honored you performed on stage holding my HEAVYWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP BELT!”
