My prediction 2013: Geale defeats Golovkin

[Sugar Nick]

Geale? He's going down by KO if he ever fights GGG.

[elmaldito]

i predict ggg kos geale

[fistsof steel]

I know it's only Amatures but Golovkin defeated Geale very very easily as an amature,think both have improved a heap since then but Golovkin is all wrong for Geale,dont think theres a Snowflakes Chance In Hell of Daniel winning this fight.!!!!

Did GGG win by KO against Geale in amateurs?

So, there is always the chance that Golovkin has already peaked (31 years old in April), in combination with the fact that the strength of his skillset cannot properly be judged at the elite level, which Geale is at, amongst any footage of his pro career.

Geale is a little over rated. It can be argued that Macklin beat Sturm, more than Geale did.

GGG KO is the only plausible conclusion.

Good Point,no it went the distance but it was an easy margin for golovkin,no doubting Daniel's Chin is a ripper and theres a Big chance it goes the distance with Geale,both have improved heaps since then,but theres 2 outcomes in this fight,It goes the distance or Golovkin wins by TKO,Geale has not got the power to stop Golovkin.!!!!

GGG still has Rosado in front of him let's not forget.

Doesn't Geale still have Mundine in front of him, or did they fight already?

Just found the result of there amature fight.!!!!

Sorry OP but ESB likes to suck the dick of GGG he KO's everybody in hypothetical match ups, he is assumed to be very dangerous with KO wins over the great Proska & P4P legend Ouma... Also he holds the world sparring championship, ESB likes to include his amatuer wins over Geale & Bute on his resume...

Did not know that. Cheers for that.

Even though I take GGG over Geale, that's just an interesting bit of trivia too add rather than a basis of an argument of how a pro fight would turn out 12 years later.

1) Geale and Sturm both knew they would have to face Golovkin right away afterwards yet Geale decided to drop the WBA belt so he could fight Mundine and Soliman, that says something imo.

2) You would be hard pressed to find a worse style mathup for Geale. He's a boxer/swarmer hybrid or a ambush fighter like RJJ or Pascal except he throws combinations in the pocket and relies on a high volume with no power and a qustionable chin considering that he's been down 4 or 5 times against Aussie journeymen with shitty KO ratios.

Sturm/Geale could have been 7-5 either way and Sturm won rounds due to having a much higher connect percentage, Geale has all the moves to make it appear he has a good defense but he doesn't, Sturm had no problem landing on him. Felix also has a very predictable and limited offense, jab, right hand and the occasional left hook to the head or body. Ignoring his power for a moment Golovkin is a much better offensive fighter with a complete arsenal but he's also very awkward because of his switches, awkward hooks, brutal body punching and a very formitable jab himself.

He'll land alot more than Sturm did, Geale has nothing to discourage him and he will not last because of Golovkins power. Spending the majority of your time on offense in the pocket throwing combos, relying on volume and giving Golovkin constant oppertunities to exchange with you is a formula for disaster. I would be shocked if Geale made it past 6 rounds fighting in his own style, if he does he'll be running and just trying to survive. Either way he isn't winning. All that said i dont believe we will see them fight in 2013.

Note the part in yellow above....Im assuming ripper means solid or good.
