Alexander v Purdy - May 18

This content is protected

 

Can only laugh at this but hey its only a rubbish undercard fight. All about the amazing main event.

 

Suppose this means we'll be seeing Brook-Purdy in September if he doesn't lose too badly, can barely contain the excitement...

Good luck to Lee though, big chance.

 

Eddie Hearn ‏@EddieHearn 2m
It's a funny old game how things play out.. @LeePurdy1 will challenge @DAlexandereal for the IBF World title on May 18th in Atlantic City

 

****ing **** fight.

 

Showtime should be saying No.
Alexander should be saying No.
Goldenboy should be saying No.

 

Well Eddie said yes
yes
YES

So **** off! :tong

 

Another brilliant fight from the saint.

 

Please explain what you mean?

 

Not a great fight,but a great oppertunity for Purdy who lets face it if he didn`t try to grab this chance he would be a fool.This could be the ony title shot he will ever get so take the chance and try to make a name for yourself.He isn`t an unbeaten hotshot whos shot has come to early against a monster puncher so why not

 

Eddie Hearn has really delivered for his fighter here, fair play to him.

As for those slagging Alexander "**** fight" etc, Alexander HAS to make a mandatory defense of his title.. that means fighting the highest available ranked opponent.

 

When Ricky Burns v Jose Gonzalez gets made, you can blame Hearn, you can't blame Gonzalez promoter.

In this case Hearn is not to blame. He has done a good job for his fighter.

 

Well when Kell's little piggy went of to market.

Eddie was dreaming of Purdy-Alexander, the whole world said no, everybody involved in the fight said no. But Sir Eddie started getting some ideas, some brain farts and he said yes.

He is 110% behind Purdy, and Purdy loves it.

AND THE NEWWWWWWWWWWW
