отозвать претензии
Russian to English

Poetry & Literature
Речь идет о пари. Мужчина очень высокомерный и угрожает работе женщины, предлагающей пари. Она говорит ему, что если она выиграет, то он "отзовет все претензии."
Фраза "отозвать претензии" значит, что высокомерный мужчина должен перестать выпендриваться? Или что он должен перестать угрожать? И то и другое?

Discussion
I suppose the man has publically accused the woman of some kind of behaviour or act that was considered "un-feminine" in past centuries, so now if she wins the "pari" (whatever form that may take...), she wants him to publically "withdraw all his accusations".
She said to him: "if I win, get off my back"
