We find the exact typical error exponent of constant composition generalized random Gilbert-Varshamov (RGV) codes over DMCs channels with generalized likelihood decoding. We show that the typical error exponent of the RGV ensemble is equal to the expurgated error exponent, provided that the RGV codebook parameters are chosen appropriately. We also prove that the random coding exponent converges in probability to the typical error exponent, and the corresponding non-asymptotic concentration rates are derived. Our results show that the decay rate of the lower tail is exponential while that of the upper tail is double exponential above the expurgated error exponent. The explicit dependence of the decay rates on the RGV distance functions is characterized.
