I doubt he'll be successful especially in the early rounds. What made Jan's TDs effective imo is how he mixed it up with his hands, and also the element of surprise as Izzy didn't see it coming. Everyone had Jan winning by KO. The extra pounds and strength that Jan has as a true LHW also is a factor, especially in the late rounds.
What Marvin can do is put on constant pressure, close the distance, lots of feints, but not get careless. Keep Izzy guessing and make this an 'ugly' and rough fight with clinches, dirty boxing, going for single legs, etc. Don't let Izzy just stand there in his range and pick his shots like he always does. Easier said than done though, but I think if Marvin comes in prepared and isn't fazed in the moment, he might pull this one off.
