T-Rex: Boxing and Dating
In this excerpt from the Independent Lens film T-Rex: Her Fight for Gold, Claressa "T-Rex" Shields talks about dating her boyfriend Rell, and how she hasn't told her coach Jason Crutchfield about it because it's a violation of his "law." We see Claressa all dressed up for her big date at a school dance before a cynical Jason confronts her about this relationship.
