Yeah, Geale's making the right noises, so we'll have to see how he plays it after the Barker fight. If he loses, in theory he's got an even better reason to step in with Gena, but I think more likely he wins and decides he wants to hang on to that belt a bit longer.
I remember Geale saying he wanted to fight in America, "fight the best" etc just after the Adama fight :think That's been a while now...
You're 100% right, but the HBO hype train has already been put in motion, and the stupid masses will all buy this useless fight.
GG is HBO's hype train. 31 years old....7 years as a pro Best win Mathew Macklin Talk about the stupid masses....you represent them well
Talking about a loss that happened 6 years ago, without the context of it, or the fact that he avenged that loss immediately after, while not entirely irrelevant and is mention worthy, doesn't mean as much as people think it does.
Stevens' team is STILL sitting on this offer, wasting everyone's time, under the orchestrated guise of negotiations and career consideration. They NEVER had any intention of taking this fight but they feel the need to string everyone along to save some fort of face with the fight public. PATHETIC! Stevens, his team and his SUDDEN legion of sycophants are all made for oneanother...
Hopkins was older than Golovkin before he got his first title and it took him 7 yrs as opposed to 3. Whats your point? If all the chickens are running from the wolf, you can assume they are scared for a reason.
Hopkins was younger than GG when he fought Roy Jones. Since the wolf can't get any fights let him move up and take a strap like Broner and Mayweather:deal WHAT IS HE SCARED OF?? Surely a 31 year old killer should be willing to "challenge himself" for once in his career.
Sad but true. Im still hoping that Stevens takes the fight and was just negotiating a better deal. But if Stevens literally chooses not to fight G wow.
GG's team said he'd fight ANYONE even at 168. I guess they never had any intention of taking that risk.. PATHETIC!
