“You Lose, You Get Babysit”: Franchon Crews-Dezurn Rips Apart Savannah Marshall During Massive Title Fight Press Conference

Franchon Crews-Dezurn is the current WBA and IBF undisputed super-middleweight champion and is the successor of Claressa Shields, the former champion. She is scheduled to take on Savannah Marshall on June 17th in AO Arena in Manchester, England. Marshall is a British female boxer and is a former middleweight champion. The fight is paramount for the division and arguably the sport. Marshall tried her hand last year to become the undisputed champion against Shields but fate was not on her side as she was defeated by the ‘GWOAT’.

Though she has another chance to redeem herself and get the opportunity to become the undisputed super-middleweight champion, Crews-Dezurn on the other end is making sure that history repeats itself. Not to mention, it was evident during the press conference how confident the 35-year-old boxer is, going into the bout.

Press conferences play a crucial role in the promotion of the fights.

In the pressor, she talked about how Marshall has been spoonfed opportunities while she has earned the right to be where she is today.

@SkySportsBoxing took to Twitter and reported a clip of the pressor with the caption, “Franchon Crews-Dezurn has just taken things up a notch.” In the clip, the champion stated, “Imma tell you the difference between me and Savannah right here, right now. The fact that you think you get dog walk in your last fight and get another shot.” 

Thereafter, she adds how the two have been treated differently. She states,

“I never had that luxury so you thinking you gonna walk over me and you gonna act like this is happening then it is gonna be a long night for you. That is all I can tell you. We fight for two different things. Cause for me even when I win I lose, you lose, you get babysit.”
