Former WBC Super Middleweight Champion Franchon Crews-Dezurn was scheduled to make her mandatory defense against mandatory contender Shadasia Green earlier this year. The WBC approved Franchon Crews-Dezurn vs Savanah Marshall with the condition that the winner would have to make the mandatory defense immediately next.
Savanah Marshall defeated Crews-Dezurn and unfortunately sustained an injury which will keep her outside of the ring at least until April 2024.
The WBC Board of Governors has decided to place Savanah Marshall as Champion in Recess and will order a fight for the vacant Super Middleweight world title between Green and an opponent to be designate by The WBC Women Championship Committee.
We wish a prompt and successful recovery to Savanah Marshall.
