    That seems pretty high. She had a clear loss to Shields and was overrated going into that fight, based on her power alone. She has a thin resume and is going up 8 pounds for this fight.
    I can see her being the favorite, somewhat due to home field advantage with the judges. But not 4 to 1. Crews Dezurn can brawl and box, and they have the same reach. So she's forfeiting physical advantages for this fight to face a less skilled opponent.
    Should be a fun fight, doubt it will end in a knockout.

    Vegas gets boxing wrong more often than other sports, that’s for sure.

    Clenelo a huge favorite over Bivol? That was free money.

    To be fair the 115-113 crew almost made sure it wasn't.

    Yeah, weird given how she is coming off of a loss that showed she might underperform when pressured. Still hoping she gets the belts. Fantastic addition to women's boxing.

    I feel like Marshall will stop Dezurn. She isn’t hard to hit, and likes to brawl. That really plays to Marshall’s strengths.

    I've seen worst personally. Crews will do very well to keep Marshall away the full 10 rounds.

    Joyce was 1/10 to beat Zhang.

    Well considering Crews Dezurn got a massive gift over Cederroos in his last match, whereas Marshall arguably did enough for a draw against Shields. I'd say that's about right.

    No, her easy fights were against the 43 year olds she used to fight.

    Half the RBR here had it a draw. While half of the scorers at Eyeonthering had it for Shields by a point, or a draw. Not that interesting.

    And what does RBR stand for? ******ed Boxing Robberists? :eek:

    You can hand select a batch of close cards from anywhere you like, fact of the matter is Shields won a clear decision & 90% or thereabouts of boxing fans who watched the full fight would agree....the rounds she lost towards the end she was enjoying herself toying her Marshall.

    It stands for Round by Round, that have been occurring on this site on a weekly basis for well over a decade. With many of the best posters in this site's history contributing to them. It does seem like someone who thinks he's observant, would've noticed by now. Clearly based on our interactions, you're a pisspoor scorer who's easily swayed by popular opinion. Sharpen up, you're not nearly as perceptive as you seem to think you are.
