Franchon Crews-Dezurn and Savannah Marshall had plenty of energy left at the scales to enjoy one final verbal exchange before they fight for real in the ring. Both boxers comfortably made weight for their undisputed super middleweight championship clash. Crews-Dezurn donned her trademark sunglasses as she checked in at 167.3 pounds to defend her fully unified crown. Marshall was a career-heaviest 167 pounds but still one full pound under the divisional limit for their main event from AO Arena in Manchester, England (Saturday, Sky Sports/ESPN+, 7:00 p.m. GMT/2:00 p.m. ET).
