"Do you think Claressa Shields plays tennis" - Fans give Ariel Helwani flak for declaring Katie Taylor the best-ever female boxer, 'GWOAT' reacts 

Katie Taylor claimed Chantelle Cameron's undisputed junior welterweight titles in their rematch on Saturday at the 3Arena in Dublin. With the win, the Irishwoman joined Claressa Shields as the only female boxer with undisputed titles in two weight classes.

Reacting to Taylor's monumental achievement, MMA reporter Ariel Helwani took to Instagram to state that the 37-year-old was the greatest female boxer of all time:

"I'm in awe of what I just witnessed. Fight of the year. Male or female. In a career full of defining, groundbreaking moments, doing this at home after what happened in May might top them all. Unbelievable. Greatest female boxer of all time. All hail @katie_t86."

Helwai's bold proclamation didn't go down without contention. Fight fans flooded his comments section, arguing that Claressa Shields was ahead of the Irishwoman in the greatest of all time discussion, even prompting a reaction from 'GWOAT' herself.
