Transgender MMA fighter Alana McLaughlin has agreed to a potential fight with former Strikeforce middleweight champion Jake Shields.
The two parties have engaged in a war of words as of late with Shields openly lobbying against the LGBTQ community. Or as he calls them, “the alphabet people.” Shields has specifically taken aim at transgender individuals and their allies, even suggesting that those who support the transition of children be publicly executed.
Recently, Shield laid down a challenge to the trans community on Twitter, suggesting that he would take on “the 10 toughest trans men in the world” with no training or rest in between each opponent.
