    What did he expect? Good call from the corner because the guy was just walking into a one handed puncher! (Due to injury)

    Sharp as usual but it's only his workrate that shines. He is still same Alexander who is punching without any idea, should try to be more creative. Alexander is so special with his fast and sharp hands but I don't see him as a clever fighter. He is naturally gifted but not smart. If you have that kind of sharpness and explosive hands you could be so much more.

    :-(

    Dick move by Barker.

    Why not let him continue, he was getting hit but he wasn't taking a serious beating.

    If you're pulling him out at that point why not pull him out after about the 4th?

    The guy is not doing **** except getting punched over and over again. Called a corner stoppage after seeing two rounds.

    I agree with all that.

    You don't have to be special to defeat "Special K", however.

    Good stoppage.

    Why let Purdy take more of a beating??

    He wasnt throwing punches.

    He hadnt won a round.

    And he wasnt going to KO Alexander.

    Good stoppage

    Devon has impressive stamina, and by the looks of it a good chin.

    He's gonna be a rough nights work for most guys at 140-147lbs.

    Did he go into that fight with an injured left hand or was it injured during the bout?
