    Looking forward to this matchup this weekend. Women's boxing has really elevated over the last few years and this is coming from someone who wasn't a fan at all not too long ago.

    Surely, this fight is much closer then what the odds are showing. What are your thoughts on this matchup?

    Not surprised at the odds, Dezurn is going to have to have to get a stoppage to win.

    It's in Marshalls hometown, and crews Is relatively unknown even to most who follow womens boxing. I think her best bet is to stop Marshall or she's leaving without those belts.

    I knew someone would bring up shields. Dezurn isn't shields, Shields made it clear, Dezurn has to make it just as clear or she's losing even If she deserved the nod.

    No I can't. Even a 50+ year old Terry Crews can be dangerous and should be the favorite.

    The odds are simply what the makers and public feel.

    Not always

    Vegas sets lines and people don’t always bet hence the odds don’t change

    Kow had no business being the -1200 favorite he was over Cusamano when you factor in all the red flags Kow had going against him

    Odds also fluctuate depending on where the most money is being placed. Some bookies had the odds for mayweather vs mcgregor closer than they did for mayweather v pacquiao. Purely down to all the UFC nutters, the whole of Ireland and anybody that hates Floyd betting the farm on conor

    Sounds about right to me. Savannah Marshall is going to obliterate her.

    I think Marshall will benefit from the higher weight class due to lower weights involving fights too quick for her.
