Does Lee Purdy have a chance??
Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
He is more live than Rees was vs Broner.
All I can say really.

I dont know! Atleast Rees was/had been a european champion. Purdy lost to Lynes who lost to Witter who in turn lost to Gavin so I might not even be in the top 5 domestically!DMA1987 wrote:He is more live than Rees was vs Broner.

Alexander ends it whenever he wants.

There was no was for Rees to win that fight. I couldn't even imagine a way realistically.columbo wrote:I dont know! Atleast Rees was/had been a european champion.

At least with Purdy I can see a way he wins. In no way do I think he does, but I can at least theoretically see it.
Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
Yeah I can see where you're coming from! Atleast Purdy possesses a punch which Rees doesnt!DMA1987 wrote:There was no was for Rees to win that fight.

Is Devon Alexander very good? All I know is Witter didn't come back out so I know quite little about DA. Didn't think he was a puncher.
Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
He's not really a puncher to be honest but he's beaten the likes of Matthysse *slighly controversially* and Maidana. Both big punchers and Maidana he dealt with fairly comfortably so unless Alexander performs like dog shit I struggle to see how Purdy will win. Answering your question though, no he's not a puncher.NorthEastBoxingFan wrote:Is Devon Alexander very good? All I know is Witter didn't come back out so I know quite little about DA.

He has been in with some pretty hellacious bangers (for once I am not using that phrase to refer to Fat Git's wobbling breasts) so Purdy is gonna have to catch him with a peach.columbo wrote:He's not really a puncher to be honest but he's beaten the likes of Matthysse *slighly controversially* and Maidana.

Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
This would have to be the biggest upset of a brit abroad if purdy pulls this off considering he probs isnt even in the british rankings top 5
Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
Good luck to him really wish we were debating Brook instead of Purdy though.
Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
I thought he had held the British belt? Didn't he upset Watson(?) the bald lad from Manchester and then beat him again in a rematch? He sounds like a banger. Those levels again huh?rio wrote:This would have to be the biggest upset of a brit abroad if purdy pulls this off considering he probs isnt even in the british rankings top 5
Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
Wish him all the best and hope he pulls it off.
He would have to KO Alexander to win though as he will be to slick.

Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
Beat Watson twice but there his only decent wins and he's been beaten by Peter McDonagh, Colin Lynes and Denton Vassell.NorthEastBoxingFan wrote:I thought he had held the British belt?

Can see him lasting out 12 painful rounds and hearing the final bell.

Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
His win over Cosme Rivera ranks up there with the worst British stoppages of recent times
He really has no business being in a ring with Alexander, and he is going to get smashed to peices.

Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
Aleksander is no big puncher, but he should be too slick for Purdy.
On paper it says he beat Matthysse, but in reality he lost that fight.

Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
Purdy's only hope is to landa big punch inside five rounds. No way he lasts the distance, Alexander isn't a big puncher but he is a big enough puncher to stop Purdy

I agree
Re: Devon Alexander says Lee Purdy will be gone by rounds 6-7
I give Purdy a good chance, nobody will have an easy night against Lee IMO. Lets hope the ref lets them fight

That was a arlier generation of Lee Purdy, so doesn't count ;;-)columbo wrote:Tell that to Lynes! HaChambers2 wrote:I give Purdy a good chance, nobody will have an easy night against Lee IMO. Lets hope the ref lets them fight
Just looked at the scores for Purdy Vs Lynes Judge 1 scores in 110-119 to Lynes, Judge 2 112-117 to Lynes then our old mate Ian John Lewis scores it a draw 114-114
