Boxing star Claressa Shields says America has lots of healing to do ... but she doesn't plan to sit back and watch, telling TMZ Sports she's "absolutely" down to help President Biden.
We talked to Shields on Inauguration Day ... and asked her if she'd consider joining the Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition -- if Biden wanted her.
Her answer ... YES -- because America has a weight problem that needs to be fixed.
"Absolutely. I think that America is one the countries that has the biggest problems with obesity," Shields says.
