McCrory Stops Shields in Eighth Round for 17th Straight KO
Detroit welterweight Milton McCrory remained undefeated with an eighth round TKO of Randy Shields, extending his streak to 17 consecutive knockouts.

McCrory, ranked No. 8 by the WBA, controlled the bout with steady jabs and pressure, while manager Emmanuel Steward called it Milton’s toughest fight before pursuing a title shot against Leonard.
