    Pretty fun fight if you haven't watched it. I don't remember seeing Purrity hurt like he was in the 3rd after Morrison nailed him with that perfectly timed left hook. It almost looked like the ropes held him up.

    Say what you want about Purrity. That dude was TOUGH and had a chin of iron. Never was dropped in his career. And Tommy was a puncher and a half!:bbb

    Yeah man. Some of these older, less known fights are fun to watch. This particular clip doesn't show the last rounds. But they can be found easy. Morrison was pacing around the ring awaiting the decision. LOL! He was nervous. Rightfully called a draw in my opinion. The Duke could crack and Purrity was tough as nails.

    Thanks Todd for sharing:good, can't believe it's been 20 long years since that fight:patsch...

    They Morrison-Purrity, should have fought a rematch, to offset the draw but it was never meant to be:huh

    Well to be fair Wladimir was actually boxing his ears off for 90% of the fight. but gassed out and got TKO'd. It was his first loss. But again showed what kind of a granite chin Purrity had. He also stood up to some bombs from Vitali too. Corrie Sanders and Rahman couldn't drop Purrity either! Guy was a tank. Lol

    The Duke came the closest to dropping him I think. That Left Hook in the 3rd was wicked and timed perfect. From the angle showed it almost looked like a hookercut if you know what I mean. Normal Human Beings don't stay upright after that. Lol

    Still, I think the hook Tommy dropped Rudduck with was his best. It looked like he actually put Rudduck OUT, ASLEEP, and the impact Razor hit the deck with woke him up! Lol

    Puritty is under8ed and was robbed against Morison. It was only Morison whom hit d floor in their fight, & hi did so twaic.
    1 shud wonder what if Puritty had 2 mor 2 go vs Rahman.
    But Cleveland Woods destroyed him wiz e rait hend end left him aneibel 2 rimein aprait
