    Very good fight 2 legit top 10 Middleweights! Golovkin by KO. Proksa with his hands down style like Sergio Martinez is going to get battered IMO.

    :good
    IMO the winner of Martinez-Chavez Jr. vs Golovkin would decide the number 1 Middleweight in the world.
    Hopefully Geale can surprise me a little & beat Sturm to put him in the mix with these 3 which most boxing experts consider the top at 160.

    Never seen Proksa but seen a bit of Golovkin plus he beat a who's who of boxing as an amateur including Geale and Dirrell. I personally think Sturm is having a unification bout with Geale to stall a fight with GG.

    yep i agree, i can actually see chavez jr beating sergio in an upset. Yep i think sturm is there for the taking but if he has his customary jab and good defense back it will be difficult for geale. My issue with geale is that he seems to lack the power to keep guys like golovkin off of him for 12 rounds.

    Exactly...should Geale ever face the big Middleweights like Chavez Jr. or Golovkin he wont be able to keep them off for 12 rounds.
    I also feel Chavez Jr. has a great chance at beating Martinez especially when he probably outweighs Martinez by at least 15 pounds on fight night.

    Some great debate here lads, my two bobs worth is Golovkin takes it but he will have to walk through fire if the Pole is on , as for Geale ? Well he does fight at the top tier but he will have to fight the likes of Sturm every fight to keep up with these guys as its getting that tight at the top in this weight class there is no hiding with a trinket down under .

    Well done to Proksa for taking the fight.
    Unfortunately he's just made for Golovkin. Low hands will leave him exposed to Gennady's massive hooks. Can't see this one going past five.

    He doesn't have a choice unless Soliman becomes his mandatory. Contendo said he only gets 3000 per PPV here even Mundine still averages 7000. His future lies overseas unless he suddenly becomes marketable sadly.

    Night night Proksa. Poor mans Martinez will be beaten up and stopped by Golovkin. You don't get away with that hands low by your side stuff against someone with great technique and huge power as Golovkin has.
