    GGG v Geale
    Cotto v Geale
    Both should be included as Geale had zero business being in the ring with either after losing to Barker .

    Barker like Geale was not world class imo, in saying that I'm glad he got to call himself a world champion before he quit the sport.

    Injuries forced him out, and it was the third time it had happened.
    He gave Martinez all he could handle and beat Geale.

    Barker was a good fighter, no shame in loosing to him. And Geale was the first man since Hopkins to unify titles at 160.
    Both belonged in the top 10.

    All true, but he was a top 10 fighter. He just lacked the heart.

    Don't get me wrong mate I was a fan of Danny Geale when he went to Germany but those inter - continental titles he was using as a means to full on world title challenges soured me , I realise it's the game not the player but it usually adds up to massive miss matches . I recently ( yesterday ) got informed Geale straight off his second quit job is fighting for the IBO 168lbs title. I rest my case .

    Murray is probably " the best opponent of Golovkin yet " as he fought his heart out but was simply outclassed , Geale went there for money and quit then went home fought his mate Jarrod then that title somehow gave him a shot at Cotto and he gave up the ghost in that one as well , on paper he might have been the best but winning paper titles down under on exposes the limitations of fighters when the step up to world class level and it showed in the version of Daniel Geale that showed up in his last two major fights .

    Barely top 20 ? Lmao I know who I'd rather be watching in their respective next fights.

    Murray v Groves

    Geale v 11 fight novice ,

    you blow your trumpet and spin that spin mate and let's hope Geale don't duck Murray at 168 like he did @ Middle .

    Geale wasn't robbed against Mundine in their first fight knucklehead.

    Agreed Kel I had Mundine a clear winner in the first fight although I scored every round to Geale in the return ( probably due to Choc being drained after his drop down to Jr middle and back up ) .
