    Good Stoppage. Barker knows what it's like to be a british bum taking a beating in the ring. He did Purdy good.

    Why wait until he DID take a serious beating.

    He wasnt throwing punches.

    He had lost all 7 rounds.

    Why wait around and let him take more punishment for 5 more rounds?

    Alexander says he was planning to use his left and it felt great in camp, but tonight he felt his bicep "pop" so he was forced to resort to the right hook and uppercut almost exclusively.

    He says this might prove to be a setback but he is a gymrat so he'll be in there again training as soon as he's medically able.

    He says that Purdy isn't really all that bad, offering the faintest minimum praise in order to be polite and not completely undersell his own achievement tonight. :lol:

    Alexander has no creativity at all, it's like he just throws punches with no consideration as to what punches are actually available to land. Same thing over and over.

    Good corner stoppage as purdy was getting busted up, was Alexander's hand injured during or before the fight?
