Personal Life
O’Connell was born in Adelaide, South Australia, on January 20, 1983. Her father Kevin O’Connell died in a speedway accident when he was 2 years old. After her father passed away, Shannon’s mother Lynda experienced severe depression, and most of Shannon’s early years were marked by abuse and drug use. She started boxing at the age of 20 to get her back in shape after suffering a back injury while playing netball.
Terry Fox, an Adelaide boxer from the 1970s who competed against her father in speedway events, served as her first coach. O’Connell lives in Slacks Creek, Queensland, which is south of Brisbane, with his three kids. She established the Shotgun Boxing and Fitness club in Slacks Creek and was selected the 2021 “Sportswoman of the Year” for the City of Logan.
Boxing Career
On December 15, 2011, O’Connell made her professional debut. In round 3, she won by Technical Knockout. She competed for the Queensland state female bantamweight title in her second match, however she was defeated. O’Connell defeated Choi Hyun-mi of South Korea by unanimous decision for the WBA world female featherweight title after winning her subsequent six fights, including the contest for the Queensland state female featherweight title. O’Connell had to have shoulder surgery in 2022, endangering her career. After suffering two surgeries, O’Connell defeated Sarah Higginson in the first round when she made her comeback in June.
She was designated as the required challenger for fellow Australian Bridges’ IBF world bantamweight championship in July 2022. The IBF rejected Bridges’ plea to postpone the fight on August 25, 2022, and instructed Bridges’ promoter Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Boxing to start talks with O’Connell’s Australian promoter No Limit Boxing to set a date. By September, the two parties had failed to reach an agreement, and the bout was then put up for purse bids, which Matchroom Boxing won.
