Default Geale VS Mandy

Well folks, I'm the last person who likes to spread bullshit rumours like so many of the trolls here of late. And I certainly don't like discussing Mandy.

But, I have it on good authority that Geale and Mandy will fight on 27th of May.

An opponent for Geales fight next week should also be known in the next 48 hours.

If this really happens, I hope Geale knocks Mandys block off.....

Rick.

Mate your nuthugging has no boundaries does it. Mundine has had one fight at the weight against a washed up former welterweight and he is all of a sudden the 3rd best middleweight in the world.

This is exactly my point, if Williams cant be considered due to fighting no one at this weight except Kolle then how can Mundine if he has only fought Taylor ?

I said something along these lines the other day in a different thread, and I'll say it again.

How is Mundine going to knock Geales block off?
What has Mundine achieved in his last 1/2 dozen or so fights that Geale couldn't?

Oh, that's right, he's gone the distance with a pile of journeymen, and he's even been dropped by a few of them. Truly stunning performances.

Get real, Mundine hasn't knocked anyones block off lately, let alone a worthy contender like Geale. Geale will trouble Mundine as he is just as quick, smarter, and can bang equally as good.

Realistically, this could go either way, though I really want Geale to win. Yes, because I can't stand Mandy, but at least I can still remain impartial.

Im getting sick of talking about Mundine and Geale here. I am 100% confident Geale will be hurt and the fight will be stopped.
You best be having a quid on the result then

Bullshit. In Mandys last 9 fights the only worthy opponent has been Soliman.

Mandy got dropped by Crazy Kim and another journey man from within his last 5 fights (can't remember who).

Yeh, who?
As soon as Mandy has stepped it up he's been beaten, every time.

And Mandy can? His last 5 fights were Journey men (except Sol) and he couldn't make a dent in them, they all went UD. Mandy had no power in his last fight with Taylor.
Geale and Mandy have the same 60% KO record accroding to Boxrec.

In your dreams, that's why he got clocked by 2 journey men.

Mundine would have won this fight easy in the past, but going on his last few performances, he'll need to imporve a lot. He better hope the hip injury is the sole reason for his loss of power.

What so he'd be in the ring with Crazy Kim and Rafael Sosa Pintos instead? Surely you jest?
Geales opponents are all appropriate fights given the length he's been fighting. And no worse than what Mandy has been doing after a hell of a lot more fights.

Just the facts, take a look at Boxrec yourself.

If you can't see the major differences in Geale and Mundine. Your either 1) Part of Geales team. 2) A hater.

You just don't get it......
Geales only had 20 fights, Mandys had 38. Meaning that they are at different levels of their career.
Geale is on his way up, Mandy is on his way down.

As 'smellmyfinger' said, Mandy would have won in say 05 and 06. But not today. Mandy is past his best, that's clear to anyone who has seen his recent efforts.

Geale hasn't even hit his best yet.

So to answer your question, sure I can see differences between them, however those differences are not the same as yours.

And no, I'm not part of Geales team, and no I don't 'hate' Mandy. I do think he's a wanker though.

Im a long time supoorter of Mundine who has lost respect the last 18 months. But after years of defending him, i think a part of me will always want him to succeed. There's only two scenerio's where i'll be happy for him to get beat:

1, He fights Green, because it will prove (once and for all) its only about money.

2, its by an AUSSIE fighter who could be a genuine world champion.

So with that in mind, i hope Mundine beats Geale, because i cant see Geale being a dominant force on the world stage.
