Franchon Crews Dezurn returned from an 18-month layoff to defeat Citlalli Ortiz by majority decision on Friday at Turning Stone Resort and Casino in Verona, New York.
Crews Dezurn (10-2, 2 KOs), of Norfolk, Virginia, won a close fight by scorecards of 96-94, 98-92 and 95-95 to defend her WBC and WBA super middleweight titles. She was coming off a unanimous decision win over Shadasia Green in December 2023. With the victory, Crews Dezurn claims the No. 1 spot in the division over Green.
Ortiz (4-2, 1 KO), of Baja California, Mexico, who spent most of last year fighting as an amateur, suffered the second defeat in her last three fights.
In Orlando, Florida, on Saturday, Beatriz Ferreira retained her IBF lightweight title with a dominant unanimous decision victory over Maria Ines Ferreyra with scorecards of 99-91, 99-91 and 98-92.
Ferreira (7-0, 2 KOs), of Bahia, Brazil, solidifies her No. 3 spot at 135 pounds, just behind Caroline Dubois and Terri Harper, in a tough division.
Ferreyra (11-1-1, 6 KOs), of Buenos Aires, Argentina was fighting outside of her home country for the first time in her pro career.
Rankings are updated every Tuesday. They're based on recent bouts, head-to-head competition and the quality of opponent. As with almost everything, until fighters square off against one another, there is a layer of subjectivity to it. Fighters who haven't fought in 18 months and don't have a fight scheduled will be removed from the rankings until they fight again.
