    A trait unique to him among his peers.

    HBO wouldnt accept shot Jermain Taylor as an opponent for Geale on US TV.

    Taylor had already been rejected as an opponent for Peter Quillin late last year by both Showtime & HBO.

    Geale having little to no US profile, needs a legit top 5-10 opponent to get on a major US network.

    How about Pirog? Is he close to a return?

    HBO would definitely accept that...tho it needs to be with a very good co-feature as both Pirog & Geale are not well known in the US.

    Who knows when Pirog will return...he has been shockingly inactive the last couple years.

    I only said that because Shaw said it in a interview.

    Golovkin.... my ASS. Geale wants no part of Golovkin.

    Pirog is far away from a return.

    So what names have been mentioned?

    Lee or Barker would be a decent defence. Geale v N'Jikam would be a quality fight.

    I was actually thinking more ESPN anyway..shobox at best.

    I think geale will have a hard time cracking the market to be honest..he might be better off looking at UK/Europe.

    ESPN/ShoBox would accept this fight...the only prob is the amount of $ put into the show would be around 25k.
    Doubt Geale would only want 15k to take a fight in the US on ESPN/ShoBox.
