    HBO Boxing After Dark tripleheader owed to Gary Shaw on August 10th or 17th, probably at either Turning Stone Casino in Verona upstate New York or the usual Chumash Casino in California.

    Daniel Geale vs Darren Barker.
    IBF Super Bantam Champ Jhonathan Romero vs TBA
    & a 3rd matchup.

    Atleast you now admit Geales people were either wrong or lied.

    Once again, you base that assertion on SOMEONE who made an account called GrangeOSB:patsch. Proof that it was really them or are you just grasping at straws per usual?

    He couldn't keep both belts he doesn't have the dough to pay step aside money.

    The WBA title was stripped from him when he elected to take a

    payday against Mundine rather than much less against Kazakhstan's Gennady Golovkin.




    He was going to lose a belt anyway and took the easier more profitable fight where he earned nearly as much as Rigo and Donaire combined. Not sure if your serious or just arguing for the sake of it.

    Official Geale Announcment will be made tomorrow at 10:46 on Wide World Of Sports

    As for GGG. Its easy to make an uneducated speculation about this fight. The fact is, Geale has always wanted this fight. Geale has every right to contest for the WBA belt, GGG never fought for it. When the APPROPRIATE offer is made, it will happen.

    Very close fight, neither big punchers.. I think Geale's workrate could cause Barker problems, i dunno if Barker is technically good enough to pin someone like Geale down. Geale on points, 7 rounds to 5 kinda fight.

    It would definitely be a close one, could go either way, and hopefully if it is in America there'd be no funny business with both fighters being "foreign".

    Don't know why people think Geale will do this easy or even that Barker is the weakest of the 3 brit middleweights bouncing around.

    I think all 3 of them are of similar ability but have different styles which are going to see them do better against certain types of fighters.
    Barker gave Martinez a pretty decent fight up until the stoppage and unsexified his nose in the process..And I think the version of Martinez that Barker fought was certainly better than the one Murray took on and maybe even better than the one Macklin versed.

    Serious each way fight IMO...Neither are at home or a name fighter so who knows how the judges will score it. I think you are going to have 12 very hard to split rounds.
