circulating on twitter its off as purdy had a virus ??? :roll: Ron Lewis ‏@RonLewisTimes I understand that Lee Purdy is out of his fight with Carson Jones with a virus Top Tweet
Diluted card without Purdy-Jones. I was really, really looking forward to it, if anything just to see Jones on these shores again.
Let Jones fight for the title on the bill and draft in a replacement? This is a problem with having so few boxing bills on sky. If you look at what we have had off eddie recently, its been pretty poor to be honest.
Eddie's confirmed that Lee Purdy is out. Eddie Hearn ‏@EddieHearn Gutted to announce that @LeePurdy1 is out of the fight this weekend with a virus. Full press release coming very soon. Pretty gutted. Was interested to see how Purdy would get on. I hope we still get to see Jones fight.
Heres a wild thought...... Wld vassell fancy a double quick turnaround?! Massive shout but its big decisions that shape careers........
**** sake, this was looking like domestic card of the year and now the 2 best fights are off. The Vassell shout would be great but he's with Hatton so I can't see it happening.
