The Real Deal stripped of WBA "super" title - Official

No

 

So you think it's a Gennady Golovkin phobia Daniel Geale is 'suffering' from?

 

I think Golovkin is a lose lose situation for most fighters.

Martinez on the other hand is very well known in the States and even if Geale lost against him he would get the exposure etc. that comes with fighting someone like Martinez

 

Of course Choc avoided Golovkin years ago... I never said he didn't

 

BUt he isn't alone, That's why I don't have a problem with the WBA stripping Geale because Golovkin has been rorted for a while now. The thing I do find a little curious is why they let Sturm avoid him for years???

 

I don't think the WBA belt matters in the whole scheme of things. If Geale beats Mundine he'll have a chance to fight GGG anyway because both have belts and it will be a unified title fight which gives it more sparkle.

If Mundine wins he'll be happy to have the IBF belt and he will have loads of options especially in the states.

If both belts had been stripped then that's a different story altogether.

Secretly i don't think Geale is that unhappy because he can avoid GGG without it looking like a duck by accepting a revenge fight that will earn him close to 5x more money.... No one will bag him for that.

 

I didn't know that about Hatton.... That is a joke, The guy has been retired for ages and comes back for an interim title shot in his first fight?

 

looking at boxrec yesterday, the fight isnt scheduled by either fighters page......:huh

 

Becasue a date and venue hasn't been confirmed I guess??

 

ok.

melbourne is obvious?

 

Ah ok...

Yeah I still can't see the point of having a Super and Regular champ, apart from the coin it generates for the WBA..
