The main fight card is scheduled for 2 p.m. ET (ESPN+), with the main event scheduled for approximately 4 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Jonas vs. Wyatt odds, and make our expert boxing picks and predictions.
Records: Crews Dezurn (8-1-0, 2 KOs) | Marshall (12-1-0, 10 KOs)
Crews Dezurn — “The Heavy Hitting Diva” — brings a 72-inch reach to this bout, while Marshall enters with a 71½-inch reach. The 36-year-old Crews Dezurn has managed just 2 knockouts in 9 career fights, while “The Silent Assassin” Marshall has 10 knockouts in her 13 fights.
Crews Dezurn picked up a unanimous-decision win over Elin Cederroos at Madison Square Garden in late April 2022, picking up the undisputed middleweight straps. This will be her 1st defense of that undisputed title in Marshall’s native U.K.
Marshall hasn’t fought since suffering her 1st pro career loss to Claressa Shields by unanimous-decision in mid-October at O2 Arena in Greenwich, England.

Crews Dezurn vs. Marshall picks and predictions
Fight result (2-way line or moneyline)
The 32-year-old Briton Marshall (-350) will cost 3½ times the potential return. That’s simply too risky for not enough value. Instead, you’ll need to get a little more creative, and look to the “method of victory.”
MARSHALL ON POINTS OR DECISION (-210) is still a bit too expensive for my liking, but it’s worth playing, especially if you want to play a potential parlay with the Natasha Jonas vs. Kandi Wyatt fight, which is earlier on the Manchester card.
Over/Under (O/U)
Yes (-460): Fight to go the distance? will cost 4.6 times the potential return, also too risky for not enough reward. Even as part of a multi-part parlay, including this prop just sucks all of the value out of your ticket.
AVOID and focus on the “method of victory” option mentioned above.
