Debi Purcell signs with EliteXC


Debi Purcell has announced on her website Fightergirls that she has signed a three fight deal with EliteXC. The first fight will be June 27 against Brazilian Carina Damm. Debi's record is 4-1. Her most recent fight was a loss to Hitomi Akano on the Feb. 15, 2006 Smackgirl show. But she hasn't been sitting around. She's very active training fighters at her dojo in California. She's been trying to work out a deal with EliteXC for a while now so this is a big deal. Carina Damm's record is 9-3. Her recent win over Sophie Bagherdai on the Apr. 3 Fatal Femmes Fighting show earned her a contract with Elite XC. Her most recent win was over Lashonda Knox on the May 3 Freestyle Combat Challenge show in Racine, WI. The fight will be at 130lbs so Debi will have to drop some weight and Carina will have to add some weight. Congratulations to Debi Purcell on getting that big deal.
