    Hes not even good on the British scene.
    Brook, Gavin, Vassell, Theophane all spank him. Hell would he even beat a Matthew Hatton or a Junior Witter at this stage of their careers? I do have to doubt it like!
    Yeah, Lee Purdy was a soft touch. He should have fought Hector Alatorre or Roberto David Arrieta.

      They were clear Lucas wins

        I don't care who on NSB feels deserved the fight or not. The people that matter felt these fighters were worthy and they were granted the opportunity as a result.



        See above
        That's your problem.

        ANSWER THIS......Lee Purdy got a fight with Devon so that means any other fighter of Purdy's caliber (not very good) DESERVES a fight with Devon.......because Lee got the fight?????

          Devon Alexander would not even come close to winning a single round. He has ZERO chance. He does nothing that even remotely troubles Mayweather.

            No, they weren't.

            Lucas showed Zab too much respect and it bit him on the ass. That was the only thing clear about that fight.

              So how can you criticize any opponent for any fighter? If the people that matter say they are worthy{the promoter}, you're just ok with it right. Or does this just work for Floyd?
              No. I'm speaking from Devon's point of view. Floyd and GBP will select whoever they want to. And based on who they have selected in the past, Devon's name deserves to be in the mix.

              There's no reason why guys Robert Guerrero and Victor Ortiz should get shots at Floyd Mayweather while a guy like Devon Alexander gets overlooked.

              It's simply because people like their styles more despite having ****ty qualifications.

                It was supposed to be Kell Brook. Purdy was a 4 week replacement. You got to take what you can get on short notice.

                And it freed Devon up for a Khan fight later this year because he's satisfied his mandatory title defense with the IBF.

                  That may not even be an exaggeration. Zero action, horrible skill mismatch, there's nothing attractive about it.

                    The win was clear, it may not have been a blow out robbery but a robbery none the less. All you need is 6 clear round to win. 3,6,9,10,11,12 + KD gives him the win. You dont even need to count close rounds. Robberies can be "close" fights

                      Doesn't matter. If Lee got the fight then someone of Lee's qualifications (or even a little above) deserves a fight too with Devon.


                      This is literally like saying some hot girl let two regular guys get lucky and **** her so that means the other regular guy who lives down the street DESERVES too as well.
                      The bottom line is the nobody did. Hence the term "got lucky."

                      (sorry for being vulgar, i'm just trying to explain this in the most simple of terms for you)
