The WBA has promoted Franchon Crews Dezurn to super champion in the super middleweight division. Until the end of February 2024, the WBA rankings showed Savanah Marshall as the 168-pound champion and Dezurn as the WBA interim champion. Marshall won the title on July 1, 2023, when she defeated Dezurn by majority decision in the United Kingdom. But on February 29th, the WBA Women’s Committee received an e-mail from Marshall’s representative, John Wischhusen, advising that Marshall is still coming off a hand injury and has plans, other than boxing, before returning to the ring as a boxer, which, “hopefully,” could be around September/October 2024. In addition, Wischhusen expressed that the title could be vacated, and Marshall could be placed among the top ten contenders, at the discretion of the committee.
The WBA also added a provision that Dezurn must defend her WBA title against a contender from the top ten in the division at any time prior to one hundred and twenty (120) days, counting from the date she is placed as the sole champion.
