What kind of shape is Purdy going to be in? he's only going to have a few weeks camp (unless he had another fight lined up).
Makes sense to have a British opponent, I would imagine a lot of people had booked non-refundable flights.

Had he not been natured last time round, Brook would have already schooled him by now and the hype would have been over.

Entertaining fighter, albeit got outboxed by a shot-to-shit Lynes so his ceiling has already been found - still could put on a good show against Alexander.
Bit of a joke that the fight is happening but it'll be good to see Purdy get some exposure and a pay-day, what are Team Alexander playing at? Although, it does make some sense from a Hearn stand-point as both are Matchroom and it'd be easier selling the Brook-Alexander fight.
Would still like to see Purdy fight Carson Jones, they're the sort of fights he should be having, not world champions.
